Also, when I draw the notes in the piano roll, I want the sound to the correspond to the length of note.
When I release the MIDI key, I want the sample to stop. Some may ask why I do this? I do it because when I will play the sample with my MIDI keyboard (or draw the notes in piano roll), I don’t want my sample to play its entire waveform. Before I drag & drop the sample in the channel rack, I set the loop points. Plus, you’ll see what you have to do, to transform a piece of loop you like into a “synth” that you can use at your discretion and create entirely new melodies.Īt first, I take a long 808 kick sample, open it in Edison and use the in-built pitch detector to determine its root key.
To be more explicit, here’s what it is: know how to find in what key is a kick sample to use it later as bass line. Phew! Re-reading the above, I realize that it sounds pretty weird.
