Sooo…after debating DT vs. OT for a while, this week I finally went for the DT and already first doubts are creeping in…
As I am mainly making Hip Hop-ish music I am of course enjoying some sample chopping (yes I was aware the DT wouldn’t excel at this), but I am struggling a little bit.
- I can either chop in the awkward p-lock way, or
- I can spread out 8 chops over the tracks make a sequence and resample.
- allows me to make quick changes to all sounds at once, but setting up he sequence is meh…
- allows me to create cleaner chops, but editing all samples at once is worse. Because I can use control all to change the parameters, but I can’t audition the sample at the same time.
Are the first world problems, or what? How do you work around it?
Should I just buy an OT ?
Does anybody dislike the fact that you have to push the encoder to change the pitch in halftone steps?
