2-Tips For Using The Samples PDF

The document discusses tips for using analog samples, including that some tape samples are similar but subtly different with cassette versions having less top end and transients, and 1/2 inch tape samples having more depth, allowing for velocity switching patches. Layering saturated samples with originals allows controlling saturation amount added to drums.

Tips for using the samples:

I have already mentioned the the use of Round Robin Layering


with the analog samples in the "Manual and Info" PDF... Here are
some other tips that may help.

You may have noticed that some of the tape samples are similar
in sound but subtly different. The cassette versions have a little
less top end and the the transients might be slightly subdued.
The 1/2 inch tape samples have more depth. This could be
fantastic for creating velocity switching patches in your
sampler. Imagine a drum sound that when played softly has the
cassette sound and when played hard has the 1/2 inch tape
sound. Or maybe a saturated sample is played when you hit it
hard and the original is played when you play softly.... You get
the idea.

Layering a saturated drum sound with the original gives you a


way of controlling the amount of saturation added to a drum.
By adding a little bit of saturated drum to the original you can
give it just a touch of edginess... Or add a lot to really dirty it
up!

Enjoy...
