Sampling Tutorial

Sampler:

"To record editing, sorting and playback of samples controlled device by MIDI commands. Samplers are divided into hardware and software sampler"

Sample Player:
Sampler without creating his own instruments

: History:

- 1946 The first "Sampler" by Harry Chamberlin
- 1948 production of the 100 Rhythmate:
- Divers drum loops to ¼ "tape playable 14

- Disadvantage "Model 200" played single notes

- 1963 Mellotron:

- Simplification of the Chamberlin-Mechanics

- Relatively expensive

- Hard to vote

- High maintenance

- Goods so to speak, about 70 Bandmaschienen

- 60s-70s rock sounds. eg "Woolfmother"

- Mellotron = Melody & Electronics
- Sound Example: Intro of "Strawbarry feelds" - Beatles! In this song the first time was cut between various Takes! One can hear the cut

Digital age:

- 1979: Fairlight CMI:

- First digital sampler

- 1982: E-Mu Emulatior I:

- The first "affordable sampler"

- For the semi-professional area, built

- 1984: NED Synclavier:

- Samplers, sequencers, HD recorder & FM Synthesizer

Hardware to software:

- 1988: AKAI S1000

- Sampler CD quality

- 1997: Gigasampler HD Streaming

Samples have completely no longer in the RAM of the sampler are

- Direct from disc streamig (DFD)

- Only a few milliseconds, the sample loaded into the RAM Attacks are .. These sample parts are exactly as long as the buffer time for the streaming of the whole sample on the disk.

- 2000: Emagic Xtreme Sampler 24 Bit (EXS 24)

- Sampling a simple DAW possible

Hardware Sampler:

- Small Computer

- Similar to a MIDI expander, however, be used separate samples

Parameters:

- Polyphony
- Storage
- MIDI Channels
- Resolution (BIT)
- Outputs

Examples:

- AKAI S-Series

- Roland S-series

- Akai MPC

Software Sampler:

- Hardware-software-based sampler

- Easier & Faster Import of Samples

- Additional Features

Examples:

- NI "Contact"

- Logic EXS 24 "

- Steinberg "Halion"

- Yellow Tools 'Independence'

- Tascam "Gigasampler"

- IK Multimedia SampleTank "

- Digidesign "Structure"

The image:

Excellent signal quality:

- Instrument quality and good musicians

- Used Microphones (signal to noise ratio)

- A / D conversion

- Maximum level without clipping

Clean and constant Samples:

- Shielded Studio

- Noise of the musician

- Pitch of the instrument

Non - Acoustic Samples:

- Synthesizer or other sound generator

- Digital connection is preferred

- Prerecorded samples

- Sample CD-Roms

- Internet

Sampling of software programs to sounds:

- Sample it
- Autosampelr

- Sample Robot

Postprocessing:

- Creating the mix

- Normalize

- Selection of samples

- Cutting

- Fade-in and fade-outs

- Appointment

- Export

Schedule:

- Complete bounce from the mix and create a single large file

- Designating: Name_Notennummer_Dynamikstufe

Mapping:

Loading the samples in the Samper:

- Allocation of buttons to trigger the samples

- Most of Drag and Drop

Root Key:
- Key to which the original sample refers

Transposition:

- Automatic pitch from the Root Key (Mickey Mouse effect)

- By "tracking" is the sound character will

- Key area is the area in which the original sample is played transposed

Tracking:

- Change the pitch by pitch

Velocity Range:

- The dynamic range (1-127)

- Use of multiple samples for the Velocity Range

Fades:

- It can both velocity and also Keyzone-fades are used

- Velocity crossfades:

Can cause phase cancellation -> therefore waiver frequently.

Group:

- This is used to key to distinguish between an example:

- Room-and close-Sample

- Or, for example: three different samples, the order will be fired at random, so not always the same sample is played (Mashinegun effect)

Loops:

- Part of the sample is looped in the Sustain Phase

- Art is in the smooth transition

Modulation:

- Envelopes of filters or volume

- Triggers can usually Velocity and notes

Velocity can modulate filter cutoff and volume as
- So that> the hills disappear with a light touch

Professional Instruments:

- Multi-Samples for Velocity Range and Key Zones
- Fine coordination between the samples
- Very detailed drawing of the instruments

Drum sampling terms:

Round-Robin:
- Repeated play a key with the same Velcoity different samples are played back

One Shot:

- The sample will be played over and completely once the key is struck and the note-off command is ignored

-> Sample is played completely: for example, the drums often. At Intrum ducks such as: the flute is not.

Group Voices:

- Number of simultaneously audible voices in the group

-> Samples can be grouped together in groups and as HiHat 3 buttons, only either one or the other to play the

- Lower Velocity range is often less accurately sampled the graduation of her

Monolithic File:
- Only one long file and then searches the sample plug in the right place

Sampling of classical instruments:

Key switches:

- The variety of groups outside the area gemapten as switching

Release Samples:

- Note Off message serves as a trigger

Sampler examples:

- Vienna: "Qube" -> Full package

- LA-scoring strings -> Vienna whole competition. - Preset based>

- Galaxy Pianos: Vintage D -> 4 for contact

Developments:

- Alternative to the classical sampling:

- Physical Modelling

- Impulse response

- A combination of modeling and sampling

- Phase compensation of the samples by scripting

- Change the "Basic Samples"

Ex:

"Mr. Trumpet "-> Through scripting in touch

Literature:

- "Soundsyntesis and Sampling" (Martin Russ)

- "Audio Sampling" (Sam McGuire) -> To Propellerhead Reason "and is based

- Manuals of the programs!

Workshop: Sampling Tutorial:

Logic EXS 24 "Sampling Tutorial:

Modulation Matrix:

S-Select:
- Velocity is responsible for which sample is played

Key:
- Relative volume: volume in fine-tuning Samples

Edit:

- Folders are available for groups

Key:

- RootKey

Scale:

- Which area is to be output

Output:

- Multiaoutput output

Velocity View:

- Bottom and move to tackle

For groups:

- Offset range for the filter -> For graduation of samples

Create New instrument:

Read:

- Automatic reading of the audio file name -> If automatic detection mapping

Sampleln -> Strip Silence -> and import it into the EXS

Pitch:

- Turn on percussion instruments

View -> Group -> Velocity
-> This is the velocity appears in the list

Create groups:

- Mark Samples> and pull in the left column.

Something in the media import EXS About:
Right click -> Convert -> Convert to new track Sampler -> This is looped's

-> Or transients rather than regions. Then, create a track with a transient event per marker (How REX files, etc. included)

-> Perfect applicable eg for slicing of vocals (stutter effect) -> And pitching, etc.
