WEEK7 - CC1: NN19 Sampler
I've played around for ages with this sampler setup, tweaking settings and key zones. Below is one of the permutations.
Firstly, I typed Marshall McLuhan's quote into Orator, then loaded that file into Peak. I went with the Orator voice 'Deranged' on instinct, and am glad I did. The words are not that clear but it works.
"The ignorance of how to use new knowledge stockpiles exponentially."
"When a thing is current, it creates currency." 1
I created about 10 samples, not all of them making it to the version posted. I then loaded my samples and key zones into the NN19. No probs. Copy to external hard drive and finish later.
I get home and attempt to load the samples and settings into my PC's Reason Adapted, but the AIFF files are unrecognisable. I'd named the files 'sound.c5' re: tutorial; fine for Mac but to Windows, anything after the fullstop is a file type. Let that be a warning to me! Solution? Remove the fullstop - as if by magic, AIFFs once more.
In this permutation, I have ignored the first two key zones (C0,C1) and concentrated on the third (C2) - 'Behold' at various speeds over an octave. The next zone has the full quote and therefore shows the most effect from altering the release in the amp envelope section, as the other samples grouped from G3 to D4 are quite short. I have tried to showcase this difference by utilising percussive type rhythms with little or shorter decay times as a backdrop for this effect in the first section. There are also two instances of holding down C#3 and D#3 at the same time, creating a doubling effect of the quote.
The second section breaks into a new rhythm, again based around 'behold'.
Hours of fun.

Didn't know what to expect as I haven't done mine yet. Feels funny trying to comment on yours, about the only thing might have been to included some sounds/sections that were lower in pitch. Still thought that the middle section was getting there. Still don't know what mine will sound like though.
Some pretty sweet sounds there.
As a drummer, I always admire "poly-rhythm"s. It was cool that at least someone had such a thing in the project. Good stuff..
