Loop Sampling

I am having troubles auditioning audio loops files in the search/browser preview window. It's not gray, the button changes from play to stop quickly. The audio seems stop at random intervals during the preview. Again, the play button changes to the stop button on its own. when i drag the clips to the pallet they will play but i get what sounds like skips. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the reply. I copied the files as suggested and unfortunetly i get the same results.
In the process of trying to resolve this issue I recently did a fresh install of OS. I even formated before the install. I also did a fresh install of FCP.
I have a 15" Powerbook G4 and an Imac that both work fine with the same software.
Any other suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

Exs sampler need looped sample to play forever

I have made an exs instrument of 2 separate 1 measure arpeggiated keyboard lines that I have set to loop in EXS sampler on MS2.
I have the EXS set to Mono, and to Unison so that one looped sample will cancel out the other one, I have now assigned 2 drum triggers on my midi drum kit
to each be the note that each of the 2 samples are assigned to. I have the release,sustain,decay cranked all the way on the EXS sampler, however, my samples still slowly die out. Is there a way for me to make them play forever until I play the other sample or hit panic button?
as long as I hold the note it will play forever, however I want to be able to hit a trigger that's assigned to that note, and have it simply loop forever

Is loop in EXS24 editor flagged? I think here around is your solution
• Loop On checkbox: Activate to enable looping and to allow access to the other Loop parameters.
• Loop Start, Loop End fields: Define discrete loop start and end points, allowing you to loop a portion of the audio file.
• Control-clickeitherfieldtoopenashortcutmenuthatallowsaccesstotheLogicPro Sample Editor (or an external editor). This enables you to set the loop start and end points graphically: Loop Start is represented by the LS marker and Loop End by the LE marker. See Editing Samples in the EXS24 mkII Sample Editor.

Excel hysteresis loop sample data needed for testing in LV

Im sorry if this is in the wrong board, but I didn't really know where else to put it. If someone has sample data for a hysteresis loop in excel or LVM format and could post it so I can test with it I would appreciate it greatly. Preferably a larger amount of sample points but I won't be picky.
Thanks
Patrick

Hey Patrick,
Here's an example that generates hysteresis data. We unfortunately don't have many data files stored here, but maybe you can use this to generate some.

Exs24 not looping samples

Hi
I have just discovered that none of the samples in exs loop,even loaded a garageband french horn sound and it doesn't loop,I've looked in "edit" and all the samples have the loop box ticked,yet no they won't.I tried switching loop off then on again but to no avail.I'm on 9.02 and 10.6.2,and have been updating things recently.I have heard that other aspects of exs where not functioning as planed,but i haven't heard of this looping problem.
I'm open to suggestions!!
mike

Thanks for the relpy,yes i had checked one shot mode.I have done some more tests and it is only happening with virtual memory switched on,and with it on i get the samples cutting out(what i thought was not looping is actually the samples just stopping)My samples are stored on a seperate internal drive,If i choose a factory sample(stored on boot drive)it plays ok.The dive was brand new with the computer(not apple,3rd party) 6months old. Its never been a problem before,going to check other au's that have thier samples stored on that drive!!?.

How do you remove the pop sound in between looped samples?

I have recently purchased the thor synthesiser for use with Garageband on the ipad. When I record a bassline and then loop it, There is an audible pop/click noise as sample repeats.This is really annoying as its an obvious impurity in the sound. I have the same problem looping recordings made using the ikaossilator.
Does anyone know an easy way to get round this? Or any way at all?
Many thanks
Dan

The pop at the end/beginning of a loop occurs when you don't have a "zero point" at the end of the sample, i.e. when it's not quiet or at least the audio wave is zero at this point so it can pick up seamlessly. Try to play your sample so that this is the case!

Adding/Putting Loops/Samples together in LP

How do you to get samples to "snap" right up against each other when adding to an audio track in logic pro?
Can't seem to get them to do that, have on other apps,,,???
Thank You

In the top right of the arrange page, try the various drag modes - try setting it to Shuffle L or Shuffle R, and the regions will snap together when dragged reasonably close.

How do you loop samples...?

initially i could click open a grey area with two blue arrows in the timeline - when the playhead entered this it would loop continuously - useful for syncing etc. Now when i do it, the arrows are sort of greyed out, and the playhead plays straight through without latching onto it... how do i get it back to looping? thanks!

click on the "cycle" button on the main transport at the bottom of the multitrack window. This is the 2nd button to the right of the play button that has arrows point to each other. This enables/disables the looping around the cycle region.

[Request] Sooper Looper (Live Looping Sampler)

The features look excellent in this app. I believe my compiling issue was with wxgtk. Any audio guys out there willing to give this one a shot?

Multiple While Loops Write to One File

Hello,
I have three different instruments from which I am sampling, each at a
different sampling rate. Each instrument is being sampled in its
own While loop. How do I write all the samples I collect to a
single text file? I would like something in the following format:
[Timestamp] [Instrument 1's First Sample] [Instrument 2's First Sample] [Instrument 3's First Sample]
[Timestamp] [Instrument 1's Second Sample] [Instrument 2's Second Sample] [Instrument 3's Second Sample]
...and so on..
Thank you,
Olyvia

This seems like a flawed project.
If each loop samples at a different rate, the samples will arrive at different times. Typically there won't be a single timestamp for all three samples. Can you explain what you actually want to write to the file from each loop?
Do you want to write to the file incrementally inside each loop, or do you want to write everything at once after all loops have finished?

How do i determine the speed of a sample

I want to know if there is a way to determine the speed of a sample that i want to match in logic.

Eriksimon wrote:
A loop is not a sample, though a sample can be looped, in which case one can call it a looped sample. What would a sampled loop be? The recording of a piece of a loop that is playing?
A Loop would be a phrase.
A sample would be a single note.
Just to avoid a futile debate: yes, in the broad (semantic) sense a sample can be a loop too.
These are not laws (I think), but customs.
I think your customs regarding samples and "sampling" are stuck in 1982 hip-hop.
To further muddy the waters: Almost any non-percussive sample played via a keyboard (remember when "samplers" used to be keyboards?) is also looped at some point.

Trigger loop in MS

I apologize if this seems like a duplicate question, but I've read many postings on this topic and nobody seems to have this exact scenario.
During live performance using MainStage, I need to trigger a short audio file (a few seconds long) as an endless loop. I want to hit a key on my keyboard controller, and have the loop start. I want to leave it "running" (looping) forever until I decide to hit a key to stop it. The entire file is the loop, so there's no need to set start and end points, or crossfade, etc. I have no need for adjusting tempo or doing anything sophisticated.
I've tried the AUAudioFilePlayer in a channel strip but that can't be triggered from the controller. I've tried EXS24 but I can't get the file to loop properly. I'd even be OK hitting a key on my laptop to start/stop the loop if necessary. Any suggestions? Thanks!
Rich

OK, I re-read your post a few times because I wasn't sure what you meant I couldn't figure out from your second post what you meant by a "One Shoot Loop" because those are a little contradictory..a sample either loops or is one shot. However, from reading your first post again, I see what you mean, you want to be able trigger the sample once and have it loop continuously. AIAK, that's not directly possible using what we've mentioned so far. (Note: from my post history it should be evident that I'm new to Mainstage and not an expert)
Two possibilities:
1) Not likely but if the length of the looping is static (same every time you play the song). Then you might be able to use Logic to create a long sample which is your loop played many many times and just use the EXS24 to trigger that long sample. One variation on that to make a sample longer than you will ever play and then trigger it from the EXS24 and have another button to stop the loop
2) Probably more flexible is to look at "SooperLooper" (http://www.essej.net/sooperlooper/) Set up a controller for record/play/etc... have your channel strip feed a Bus that has SooperLooper on it. Set your sample as a One Shot. Trigger it from Mainstage, trigger SooperLooper to record your one shot loop sample and loop it back. You may need to do some clever stuff to get the time right, such as making your sample twice as long with two repetitions of your 'loop' in order to give you time to start the same and then start the loop record, or having SooperLooper set up to listen to record on them same MIDI event that triggers your sample so your sample starts at the same time as your loop record starts
Same Greene has a demo for setting up Mainstage and SooperLooper together. http://www.samgreene.com/drupal_samgreene/node/98 The difference in your case would be that your channel strip would be for the ESX24 sample rather than a live (software) instrument

Loop length for multiple tracks

Is there a way to set the length of loop repitition, for different tracks?
I tried this the other day, with two tracks that I set up to loop, and when I adjusted the loop length in the top of the arrange window, both tracks were affected.
I want to have one track loop 5 measures, and the second track only 3 but am not sure how to do that.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks
RH3906

This is how I do it. Select the track, click on the midi/audio file you have dragged to the track. Then click the 'loop' check box (top left). This will loop the sample all the way to the 'end'. Now simply hover your pointer over where each loop sample is joined and the pointer should change to a different icon - kind of an arrow in a half loop. Now if you click on the sample when you have this pointer you can now drag back and forth where you want the loop to end. Do this for the other track, you can choose how many bars you want it to loop.
What you cant do is set up a loop all the way to the end and make 'holes', that is parts where the loop doesn't happen.
If you want a loop to start again in a different place, simply drag the sample to the new starting location and repeat above.
Hope this helps.

How do I create a fade effect w/ a sample?

Hi...
I'm trying to get a certain effect but have yet to stumble across a good way to get the effect.
I want to make a sample repeat until fade... In other words, I want it to play the sample and then loop 3 or 4 times until it fades into nothingness. For some reason I have a feeling there is a few ways to get to this type of sound...
What is the best way? An FX Plugin, Loop/Sample Editor, Inside the DAW itself? Maybe another way?
I'd like to get some tips on how to accomplish this effect... Let me know if I'm not explaining the type of sound I'm looking for properly... But it's basically an echo to fade effect used quite commonly... I just don't know the best way to achieve it.
Thanks!

Ok, follow me on this one.
Create an Instrument track, load the EXS24 Sampler in the instrument slot. Load any drum kit. (note: this could be a one-shot sample on an audio track as well)
Next... load the Stereo Delay into an INSERT.
If you play a snare drum sound are you hearing the ping-pong echo effect. (I know that's not what you're going for, this is just a test.)
pancenter-
p.s. if you loaded the "Sample Delay" plugin, it won't work that's a different type of delay related to timing.
ps.II I suggest trying the tape delay, experiment and become familiar with the controls, also, check out presets on all of the plugs.

How to insert null record (some col) in table using loop

Hi,
How to insert null record (for some columns) in table using loop.
sample data of x_tab

You have a table
   CREATE TABLE tab (
      col1 NUMBER,
      col2 NUMBER,
      col3 NUMBER,
      col4 NUMBER
      col5 NUMBER)Now you insert:
   INSERT INTO tab (col2, col4) VALUES (5, 7);col1, col3 and col5 are NULL by default (there is no DEFAULT clause for these columns so they are NULL).

Samples from Computer Music Magazine CD

If anyone out there buys or is subscribed to this magazine and gets the monthly DVD with the thousands of samples, how does one import them so that they can be seen within the loops samples directoy in garaband?
I draggged and dropped them and they were automatically copied to library/audio but I cant see them in GB
thanks

apple should give u some shares or pay you.
I'd be fine with some more shares (Heck a little more PPS would make me happy with what I have), but a few dollars (or even table scraps) would be nice.
Aside from the ones not being in the same time code?, as you mentioned
not showing up, most are not being transfered.
It sounds like some are tagged properly, and the rest aren't (Assuming the time sig is the same and "Keyword Browsing" is deselected in GB's prefs).
If I drag and drop this entire folder into ALU, will it create a lager loops folder for
to be able to then drag into GB? By converting some of the non drgable directly into GB samples.
It's a little more complicated than that if you want them to really be usable in the loop browser. STLU tags the samples with keywords to identify them in the Browser, so you would want to drop groups of loops, at best, into STLU. Then you would tag them as Guitar, Drum, Woodwind, etc, the key...
Then finally, yes, drop all the processed loops into the loop browser and they will appear under their proper instrument buttons.
