Sample speeds up

Postby craigmill » 10 Apr 2016, 12:30

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.

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

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.

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.

Ups. Now understand what is the problem. The only way is editting each note.

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.
