volume envelope ideas

Post by greenscreens » Wed Sep 24, 2008 9:36 pm

i'm wondering if there is any way to take the volume envelope of one waveform and apply it to another, like taking a waveform of a drum loop and applying it to a a volume envelope of another sound, or to a send

another thing that woudl be awesome is if there was a way to take a waveform of one sound and apply it to trigger samples, is there any way of doing this in ableton or other programs/plugins?

you can draw clip envelops that follow the waveform...
then copy paste them...to other clips

What 3dot said, but using Sidechain is much easier and completely automates the process... not to mentions it will produce the same results.
