Hi
I wonder if anyone can help. I'm brand new to this forum, to the Nord and to the Sample Editor, so any advice would be greatly appreciated. I have a sample section of the Stereophonic's Dakota introduction - which someone kindly donated on the forum - although the original file was much longer. I've uploaded the sample of the Sample Editor and then downloaded it to the Nord - Electro 5.
But when I move up the keyboard the sample speeds up. Similar when I move down, say from the root C1/C2 the sample slows down. I'm obviously doing something wrong.
What settings should I use to ensure the pitch/speed remains the same throughout the keyboard?
I have attached all 3 files - the cut sample with just the original, the project file and the original wav file.
Thanks in advance.
Craig

Well, you can't do what you want easily with a single sample and the sample editor.
Some software can stretch and re-pitch audio at the expense of certain type of artefacts. Audacity can do some of those things, not perfectly though.

Re: Sample speeds up
Thanks. So should I try clipping the original wav file in Audacity and adding it the keyboard? Sorry for being such a numpty but I know I'm doing something wrong - just can't work out what it is.
I've watched a couple of tutorials on Youtube on using the sample editor but if anyone can point me in the right direction I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks
Craig

Re: Sample speeds up
You need to create new .wav files in Audacity, one for each of the notes on which you want to play that sample with a different pitch but same speed. Of course the more you move away from the original pitch, the more the artifacts (timbre distortion) compared to the original sample.

Re: Sample speeds up
Just a click in the "unpitched" box maybe can help you and play the original sample in any key you press.
I don't know if understand you idea....

I do not think it is the unpitched setting. I am guessing that the sample has some rhythm, and when repitched by the sampler player to output a higher note, the rhythm speeds up.

Re: Sample speeds up
Ups. Now understand what is the problem. The only way is editting each note.

Re: Sample speeds up
Thanks to everyone for your help, I really appreciate it.
Just to clarify...
1. I need to cut/extrude each note as an individual sample in Audacity - or I have Logic,
2. Then save/export each note as a 16bit wav file,
3. Import each one into the Sample Editor,
4. Assign each one
5. Finally Generate and export to the keyboard.
Thanks again.
