God I am bad at making beats. Tell me what to put on the quarter notes and 8th notes so I have something to start with. (Also, suggest better samples than these).

I think I have too many toms and bad crash/hi hat sounds. I think I need more subdued samples.

subdued samples = "glitch"

I would like to record samples, but I always feel that they get too noisy and don't sound like percussion enough. DREW'S OATMEAL TO THREAD

― OLD SPICE® CHEMTRAILS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (ex machina), Friday, 22 July 2005 17:25 (twenty years ago)

experiment with feeding samples through a noise gate and then through a filter like this mother:

with a noise gate properly set up, only the loud parts of a sample will be heard, making it more percussive

I just got a Korg Electribe that I'm going to pu short tones into.

I use the Filter+Drive on the Sp303 on a selected set of the samples used to tweak the feel of a pattern in realtime. I'd like to digitally edit the samples on a PC since I use a flash card to load them.

I wish I had crazy Fusetron advance money to buy toys like that!

xpost:
you can't edit the start/end points on the sp303?

― Boring Satanic Space Jazz (sexyDancer), Friday, 22 July 2005 17:59 (twenty years ago)

hahaha i was gonna say, fusetron has advance money?

― hstencil (hstencil), Friday, 22 July 2005 18:00 (twenty years ago)

You can edit the start end times, but I was talking about doing all the filtering / cuts on the PC and then loading them.

The 303 also lets you modify cutoff, resonance and drive settings for each sample.

I'm thinking about managing my samples by using the sox audio manipulation package and Makefiles. Whaddya say msp?

I was joking about the advance money. jeez guys, give me some credit.

I had to send my keyboard back because it didn't work. Now I spent the refund and can't afford to buy another one. :(

i looked at sox briefly. i've been busy getting jack and ardour compiling successfully on amd64 first.

― Tinman: Set to Self-Destruct (cprek), Friday, 22 July 2005 18:48 (twenty years ago)

jack and ardour

Dave Fischer uses sox, shell scripts and dd to make his music as THE KNIGHTS OF TIMBRE. IIRC, he told me that there's a CS60 coming out on hospital.

― OLD SPICE® CHEMTRAILS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (ex machina), Friday, 22 July 2005 18:52 (twenty years ago)

jack is just a GNU/Linux audio daemon that makes the sound processing I/O not total crap. Ardour is recording, multi-tracking, etc that works with jack.

― Tinman: Set to Self-Destruct (cprek), Friday, 22 July 2005 18:55 (twenty years ago)

Hi-hats and ride cymbals bog things down if you are going for a subdued sound (or if you have acoustic/clean guitar strumming or picking, though I doubt this occurs in NOIZE)

― Curt1s St3ph3ns, Friday, 22 July 2005 18:57 (twenty years ago)

just find a low sound and mid sound and a hi sound.

one day... i swear i'm gonna get around to getting audio on my linux box right. for now i only have time to fudge on the osx and xp boxes. my idle work time is engrossed with a grid computing project so i'm totally fucked for free time. i'm gonna borrow the code after and i'd like to get a distributed robot band happening tho. total chuckee cheese.

Chris and Mark DJ'd my party Transmission once. Chris played the hot 97. He also distributes some Acute stuff. And people forget he put out the Y-Pants CD. Ahead of the curve on that one...

Wait, this conversation belongs on the "I Hate the Pop Group" thread on ILM.

I sometimes wonder if those minutes I spent rigging up a harmonica strap-on with a coat-hanger and duct tape could've better been spent learning something more...modern.

re: rigging a harmonica...

no. i'm convinced lately that regular instruments still have a much better interface. (perhaps the problem is not the interface but me tho!!)

The following effects can be applied to sound data:

* Channel averaging, duplication, and removal
* Band-pass filter
* Band-reject filter
* Compress and Expand (compand) the dynamic range of samples
* Chorus effect
* DCShift audio
* Deemphases filter
* Move soundstage to front of listener.
* Add an echo or sequence of echos
* Fade in or out
* Apply a flanger effect
* Apply a high-pass filter
* Apply a low-pass filter
* Display a list of loops in a file
* Add masking noise to a signal
* Multi-band Compander
* Pan sound between channels
* Apply a phaser effect
* Change the pitch of a sound file without affecting its speed.
* Change sampling rates using several different algorithms.
* Repeat audio data
* Apply a reverb effect
* Reverse sound samples (to search for Satanic messages :)
* Detect periods of silence and start and stop processing based on it
* Change the speed of samples being played (without affecting pitch)
* Display general stats on sound samples
* Stretch/shorten the duration of a sound file.
* Swap stereo channels
* Create sounds with a simple synthesizer
* Trim audio data from beginning and end of file.
* Add the world-famous Fender Vibro-Champ effect
* Adjust volume of samples.

How should I use these effects to make better samples?

― Tumililingan (ex machina), Sunday, 24 July 2005 00:08 (twenty years ago)

heres how to make a drum loop hypnotic. take the loop, add reverb, crank up the bass on the original unreverbed beat, reverse the whole thing, slow it down to 40-50 bpm, add flute / harp / egg cutter on top

― fe zaffe (fezaffe), Sunday, 24 July 2005 15:22 (twenty years ago)

I think I am just going to start off with making hypnotic patterns of different kick drums on 8th notes with industrial type noises and gated crash cymbals with the reverb tweaked live.

― Tumililingan (ex machina), Sunday, 24 July 2005 17:49 (twenty years ago)

Yesterday I made a "compiler" for the sox audio transforming executable that lets me use Make and "source files" of lists of transforms to build samples automatically.
