AKWF waveforms - tuning?

Jaalmadakan, would be magic if you could make it work!

Hi!

I just saw the post and thought to link here with my topic. It might be usefull for what you guys are after!

http://www.elektronauts.com/t/single-cycle-waveform-sample-chains/2708

I basically created Sample Chains containing groups of 64 AKWF Waveforms. There are 15 files in total so Pitch shifting is way faster than one by one or doing batch processing.

Hope that helps!

So far so good, waiting for the re-pitched waves Jaalmadakan!

Well, time for an update maybe? :slight_smile:

I finally managed to make a script that accurately repitches all the single waves, and man it sounds AMAZING from C0 to C5 (at all pitches). Fat sub basses, crystal clear leads… hmm you can even do multiple oscillators evolving textures using several tracks !

However funny things happened with repitched waves at C6 and C7, the Octatrack won’t play them back correctly (pitch and timbre is off) although they look fine in Audactiy…

I sent an e-mail to Elektron HQ who could reproduce this behavior and they promised me to investigate it further…

Singlewaves at C6 and above means a sub-millisecond long samples so I’m only half surprised that it doesn’t work correctly, after all how could they expect such a weird use case !

Now waiting for HQ reply. If they can fix the high-frequency waves I’ll release them all, if they can’t I’ll just release waves from C0 to C5.

Sounding great!! did you resample them using SoX?

If you release the AKWF repitched, I will update my package with the new Sample Chains tuned in C.
Nice to hear the Elektron team is working on the pitch issue, it also surprissed me at first that the 64 waveforms sample chains were going to work propperly due to the tiny size of the samples… but it does…

Lots of fun awaiting here… :slight_smile:

Wow, can’t wait!

Yes! What a great turn this thread just took. Really looking forward to tuned sample chain goodness.

You guys are getting some major karmic credit here :slight_smile:

Without knowing too much about the technical work behind these developments, can I ask how much trouble it might be to separate the waves? I’m curious because that way they would be equally useful for Monomachine and Machinedrum.

The waves are here for the monomachine as well.

I meant repitched.

Gotcha. Looks like the individuals will be available re-pitched first.

Couldn’t the chains be changed as they are now as well?

The samples in thechains are all different pitches so I can’t do that.

Working on the individuals now. Pretty fast with DSP Quattro batch converter.

Thanks

I miss the ‘backslap’ and ‘feeling it’ emoticons… you people deserve them!

I just posted all the AKWF samples pitched to C in the MnM forum

Thanks

Great!!

We don´t have Santa Claus in Spain, we have instead the 3 Kings, they are coming tomorrow… so I will see what I can do in order to have them ready before tomorrow morning xD

If you don´t mind I might Include in my package the isolated ones, and the chains… This way would be the all in an C tuned and usefull for MnM and OT.

Cool! Looking forward. Sure you can include the retuned individuals.

Thanks.

Multiman, this is going to be super useful for MnM (and MD as well, as it can also use 1-cycles). As I just mentioned to tsv and Tyrone in the other thread, I owe you beers as well :slight_smile:

Oh well… can’t wait for Elektron to reply… Happy new year Elektronauts!

AKWF waves retuned in C and spread on all octaves from C0 to C7. This means you can go from sub-bass to leads and use the chromatic mode of the OT. Have fun with these!

Disclaimer: C6 and C7 scaled waves will sound weird on the OT, this is a known issue and Elektron is investigating. Hopefully it can be fixed in a future firmware upgrade.

Awesome thanks!

LooKing forward for that beer! :wink:

It took me actually quite a long time as many folders had different number of files, now the collection os Sample Chains is a serieous one… Some of the chains contain less slices than the original folder from AFWF but I think is enough… 4400 WF tuned in C, more than 100 chains, plus a Noise Sample Chain I added that is incredibly fun!!

As promised here it is:

Looking forward to see some stuff coming from this swiss army knife!!
Cheers!!

I’m a big fan of those 64pieces chains, thanks everybody who contributed!

question: any chance someone creates a version of Multiman’s output with the C0-C7 pitched files by jaalmadakan? I feel that Multiman’s files are too low pitched for some purposes.

or how can I do it?
