CTW DJs Phil B Posted June 1, 2004 CTW DJs Share Posted June 1, 2004 if you load your sample into your wave editor you can stretch/shorten the sample without having to cut it to fit and keep its pitch Quote www.djphilbenson.co.uk - updated 28/08/04 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW DJs Tony P Posted June 1, 2004 Author CTW DJs Share Posted June 1, 2004 cheers mate, so how do you know what length? do you note the length you need it in "time" (seconds...fractions of seconds) and then stretch it to this length? or do you just keep increasing and decreasing until it fits? because on my video vegas i think it's all done as a %, not as a timed length so something sound forge will do this will it?

CTW DJs Phil B Posted June 1, 2004 CTW DJs Share Posted June 1, 2004 i do it in cool edit,i guess sound forge would be similar. i always do it in secs. if you make your tune at 150bpm to get the time in beats... 60/150 = 0.4 = 1 beat multiply by whatever the number of beats are to get the sample length. don't know if thats the 'right' way but its worked for things ive done Quote www.djphilbenson.co.uk - updated 28/08/04 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW DJs Tony P Posted June 1, 2004 Author CTW DJs Share Posted June 1, 2004 cheers phil, that makes sense, i'll have to get a copy of this cool edit, is it the one made by adobe? i'll have a look in soundforge too as you can probably do it in there, but i'm told cool edit is quiet user friendly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW DJs Phil B Posted June 1, 2004 CTW DJs Share Posted June 1, 2004 not too sure who makes it. id have a look in soundforge, id be very suprised if you cant do it in there. Quote www.djphilbenson.co.uk - updated 28/08/04 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTW Members ChrisT Posted June 1, 2004 CTW Members Share Posted June 1, 2004 I use ReCycle also.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW Members ReBirth Posted June 1, 2004 CTW Members Share Posted June 1, 2004 It's piece of piss to do in Fruity...Just load the file into the default sampler, and then where it says "fit" put in the amount of steps u need it in. Liek a 1 bar loop will be 16 steps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTW DJs Tony P Posted June 2, 2004 Author CTW DJs Share Posted June 2, 2004 excellent thanks guys i think i'm gonna start using fruity loops first as it's probably the most user friendly for someone like myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTW DJs Tony P Posted June 2, 2004 Author CTW DJs Share Posted June 2, 2004 cheers andy it goes in one ear and out the other, i'm sure i'll find out myself whats good and whats not. As you said in another post a tune is only as good as the samples you use. might be pestering you for some advice soon if thats ok mate?

Totally. It's piss to get used to the basics in Fruity, but it has quite a lot of depth too, for when you get a bit better at it. Pester away dude.
