Maybe you get the impresion that the lower notes
aren't as loud because you're not monitoring properly.. you know, at certain
frecuencies, the bass ceases to produce *sound* and becames more of a rumble;
you should be able to feel it with proper monitors, so there's nothing wrong
with the bas, after all.
As you pointed out, if you work with a sampled
bass, if you play a higher pitch, it will play for a shorter time.. so make
shure to sample enough of it, or better then, make it loop correctly and
set the envelopes properly.

Subject: [dnb-prod] Advanced Sampling
Techniques
I posted this on DOA, posting this here to see what you
guys reckon..............this doesn't just apply to Emu samplers by the
way....
Ok so far I've been using my Emu just for breaks and
simple one shot stuff.
It seems to me that its possible and a lot of
people use their sampler to maximum effect by using more advanced techniques
than what I'm using!. I've picked up some sample CD's with some synth sounds,
which include "C3's".
This is where confusion sets in. I get the
impression that by taking this one sample on its "C3" you should be able to
make a proper keyboard range out of it....in other words from one sample you
should at least be able to make a whole octave range ( or more? ) out of
it...right? I hear the same kind of thing with people using their samplers for
bass. They take a one note bass sample and make an octave range out of it. I
get the impression most pro's use their samplers for their bass as the
filtering options are greater, however when I've tried this by taking a sub
bass sample and trying to make an octave range from it the attack on the lower
notes in the range seems to be a lot slower ( because to lower the pitch it
also lowers the tempo/sample length. Should I be setting the lower notes in
the range to different groups in the EMu and setting these with faster attack
times to compensate? Seems like a lot of fiddling when I have good synth
presets in my virus made up already. What benefits would I get from sampling
synth sounds and bass?? Conversly I feel that I'm not using my Emu to full
effect yet, cos all I'm using it for is firing off breaks or drum hits, and to
be frank, I coulda done that with audio in Cubase!
So I guess my
question is how extensiveley can you use your sampler, just by taking a one
note sample to create bigger keyboard ranges. I'm interested how extensiveley
you use your sampler and what techniques you employ. I'm intereested to learn
how much you use your sampler, what you use it for and how you go about
getting the best out of it when sampling synth and bass sounds. How do you
make your bass keyboard range from a one shot bass sample, whats involved?
What about synth samples? Do you ever/are you able to take a one shot synth
sound and make a broader keyboard range out of it??
Lets hear some
techniques for getting the most out of yer sampler.
Easy,
Will
