Hi,

I use a lot of old cassette and vinyl, so my samples are often worn out and distorted.

Are there any ways to smoothen them out, make them sound like new?

Thanks!

Hello,

I got this track here that I just recorded off this old cassette. It's got this really hot sample and I got a couple of questions on how to best deal with it.

1. Should I cut out the sample beforehand in Sound Forge or similar, considering it only makes out about 1% of the entire track? Or ...

Actually none of the projects have any redundant files in them, so the problem must lie elsewhere.

Also I'm talking exclusively about the .als file - the first is some 500KB, second some 900KB.

Ah great, yeah that makes sense, thanks man!

I got two projects that are pretty much the same - an audio track with a sample, a MIDI track with a drum rack and another MIDI track with a bassline, and various plugins here and there.

But the second project is twice as big (in filesize). I based the second project off the first one though, so I ...

Hi,

is it possible, using racks only, to emulate classic tape machines like the Ampex valve 1/2 inch 2 track, the Otari MX5050 1/4 inch 2 track, the Teac A-350 Cassette Deck and the Hitachi 3 head Cassette deck? Kinda like the Anamod ATS-1 or whatever.

Thanks!

Hi Oddstep what I'm trying to establish is whether it is better to duplicate a midi track for the second snare and kick...or to use the drum racks method and trigger all the drum sounds on one single midi note.

Hi,

I always check the "Notify me when a reply is posted" when writing a post. But when a reply is posted, this forum doesn't send me any emails. Has anyone else experienced this?

Thanks!

I played around with the grooves from the groove library and tweaked a few of the MPC styles which produced some nice results. Have you tried that?

I'll give it a try. I appreciate it!

what do you think of the response "use your ears, WRITE the music to your own taste."??

I hear that - but ...

Hello,

can anybody recommend any reasonable groove values for hiphop beats in order to get a more natural, organic feel?

Right now I got my snares and hihats set to a 1/16 base, 0% quantize, 11% timing, 35% random and 0% velocity.

It sounds good, but does anybody know of anything better?
