Hi folks,

i was wondering if anyone 's got a sample from the post interlude's part on Abacab . It's a kind of "chacha's " sound played like a bass line .It runs on a verse's part.

Thanks by advance

I would suggest simply sampling the word "it's", and trim it up in Nord Sample Editor. You could assign it to a key and have the arpeggiator repeat it at desired tempo. Or, you could put an infinite delay on it and tweak the delay to the desired tempo.

I believe your talking about when the lyrics are "It's an illusion". If I'm mistaken, then disregard.

Nice suggestion. A while back I put together a sound for that part and added it to the sample I made with the other synth sounds, but sampling the word "its" would sound better. In the sample I just have it on the C key to go along with the low note of the analog "organ" being played. The thread with the Stage 3 program and link to the sample are at

Abacab is in our bands "to learn" list. I used to play it as a teenager and I'm sure it won't take too long to figure out again. I've had your program on my NS3C for a while now, but haven't really gone over it. But, thank you for making this up. I'm sure I'll be using it soon enough. The demo sounds great.

Thanks for the answers folks !!!
