track I'm currently working on; been making too much hectic upbeat dubs and wanted to slow it down a little. recorded a little jazz phrase I wrote and pieced together a bunch of synths I've been resampling. some of those synths have been resampled over 20 times O_o. still needs a lot of work but let me know what you think

wow, that's really cool! nice work!

btw what actually is resampling, i've heard it a lot around here? is it playing a midi sequence then making a sample out of it and sampling it on the project? or what?

I'm really digging the tune, one thing i am hearing personally though is that the guitar is getting lost in the mix. Maybe using some eq to make it a little less muddy, so its a bit clearer. Really liking that melody though

yup thats basically it. you essentially make a sound the way you like it, add effects and then bounce out a riff of it or just one note. bring it back in and add more effects, rinse and repeat until you like it

That was really sick, I love the sounds and the smooth, believable integration of the jazz element. And I'm in love with that synth...That's the kind of depth in my mid-range bass that I'm trying to get to get my songs to the next level, and I can't do it

I just don't know HOW to resample effectively, I guess..I want to get that sound!

Huge tune! I would agree with the eqing bit, I think this song has real potential. You might even consider sending it into a mastering website/studio and getting it professionally done

I actually dont use a sampler or anything, I'm too poor to afford kontakt and my cpu probably couldnt handle it. I usually just export my audio to a specific folder then delete the midi track to free up cpu, open an audio track and put the exported audio, then mess with it from there. sometimes I'll bus the audio or midi riff to a seperate audio track and record it in real time, so i can see the audio data and tell if its clipping or squared off
