I have got the OT for almost a year now and I often start to get a groove with this unit, that I later record to the computer to arrange and build around. It’s a brilliant piece of gear, but I have not explored much of the management system or sampling capabilities yet.
I like to sequence sliced beats with pipo looping, but find it a very time consuming process. Is there a way I could go through my breaks and set slices, looping points and tempo so that it is stored and can be open from any project?
I don’t have an OT anymore, but I do have an AR. I want to do what he explains about from 4.30, but AR don’t have slice mode, so what’s easiest way to this?
Take n number of samples, and join together. Common terminology is called a [Sample Chain]
You can either have them merged (i.e. end to end) and use slice points if the hardware supports it (e.g. Octatrack); or have them spaced based on the longest sample (e.g. Analog Rytm); and thus use math to figure out the split point.
Analog Rytm has [Start] and [End] parameters for Sample. So to play sample N based on X number of samples; refer to below table. e.g.
Sample Chain has 4 samples, then start [ Start | End ] would be:
Aah cool, so I was maybe a bit too fast to answer hehe.
Okay thanks, I get it now. It’s actually quite simple And I guess that it might be easier or just as easy for me to create the sample chain inside of Ableton than using that app
