How to transpose sample by tones in new simpler?

Post by prprprpr » Wed Jan 20, 2016 4:46 pm

Hello,

I have a upgraded simpler in drum rack and want to transpose sample say one or two tones. I cant find how to do it yet. In old one there was transposition option. Can someone help?

As the new simpler is in drum rack I can't do that via midi.

Any suggestions how to change sample pitch by tones in simpler while it's drum rack?? Isn't it a bit weird that hey added warping with all modes pitch included, but removed transposition? The only way i found out to do it is to convert to sampler then you have root key box.


These small changes in software is a bit counterintuitive, no complains i'll get use to it.
Just a though about ever changing software user interfaces and functionalities, makes me feel like software is just less real than analog gear.

TBH I stopped using it. The new changes made it a bit of a pain in in the arse for me to use the way I want. I dont loop beats very much and it seems thats what its for now. Or at least it switches itself into that mode all the damn time . So I stopped using it.

controls tab, somewhere in the bottom right quarter i think.
It should be in the main view, i agree.

oh wow, you're right! there it is.

I really don't give a shit about interface in software, especially plug-ins. It seems like vst developers spends so much time to make fancy GUI'S, but all plugins sounds the same. I love http://www.airwindows.com/ plug-ins and recommend them to anyone who has a mac(pitty that i changed to windows and can't access them no more) those plug-ins user interface is most simple in the world, and they sound so good.

It's just that, when i want to make a sound, i drop a simpler, then drop a sample in it, and the next thing is to transpose so i can play it. It's stupid in my opinion that you have to change tab.

I agree - they should move transpose back to the main view.

Not to mention that the next thing is "turn off warp", every damn time.

...and "snap"
...and ams files dont load in looping correctly.
...and converting simpler to sampler changes the loop settings
...and
