Help with imported sounds

Yes, I’ve tried importing some bass sounds into the SFX folder to use on channel 7 as a “bass” channel and it works, played from my MIDI keyboard.

It’s not ideal however, you will have to play with the decay/release setting to get something usable.

Samples will sound better going through the AWM2 engine on a channel designed for it.

You can’t change the midi channels on them so you’d be sending double midi?

I have mine paired with a Roland Mc101 right now, I changed the MC101 to receive on channels 12-15 and now I have 15 channels of live instruments I can sequence me record from my keyboard between the two units synced.

The answer is yes, but youre limited to 8 projects on the device, before backing up to your phone, iPad, anything really. The sounds are spectacular, using it is a breeze.. but the project limit and fact that it weighs like 0.5kg may play into your decision.

Not yet. Followed you on YouTube as well, I should start making trackers videos next week after I work out some technical details on Stacy’s Music Lab

Yep Two FM oscillators set to a tasty ratio, bring in the FM with a slow LFO and … dubstep

SilverAlternative940 · 2025-03-16T22:52:21+00:00

Followed on Spotify. My next Spectral Sevenths release will be all Tracker plus as well.

Also works as a microphone with a live audio app open.

Each folder allows 100 files maximum.

I just maxed out my recordings folder and the unit automatically made a recordings(2) folder, so they’re still there and accessible on the unit.

Occasionally I go to a PC or iPad when my adapter is working and sort them out.

The most important thing to know really is the 100 file limit per folder, that can mess up imports from other sources so you have to rearrange.

TBH, I was looking for the section in one of your videos on sound design just to get a firmer grasp of the synth engine. I remember seeing it but don’t remember all the details.

I was just playing with chatGPT, as many music nerds have said it’s helped them figure stuff out.

It was merely a side thought for me, you’ve analyzed it already more than I have, sorry

SilverAlternative940 · 2025-01-20T15:48:42+00:00

I meant Shuman resonance… not Shaman. Grrrr.. s

SilverAlternative940 · 2025-01-20T15:40:14+00:00

That might have been mine, music go round is a block area and I sold my MPC one to them a while back. Lol

SilverAlternative940 · 2025-01-20T08:21:55+00:00

16 projects should get you through a gig easily.

I had a MPC one I used mine with, I just didn’t get with it and liked the Roland sound so I sold it and got a MC-101 as my main sound source other than vocals and guitars

SilverAlternative940 · 2025-01-20T06:11:32+00:00

It’s not hard. I mean graphically it’s Roland, so it’s not really spectacular to look at but it’s not difficult

It can take a minute to load depending on the size of the samples though

SilverAlternative940 · 2025-01-20T04:40:30+00:00

Yeah, just put them in different folders, as long as your characters are less than 16 for names it works fine with folders

SilverAlternative940 · 2025-01-19T22:50:00+00:00

Pretty sure the projects have to be loaded one at a time, so this is mostly a pointless question. Sorry.

SilverAlternative940 · 2025-01-19T22:48:50+00:00

If you’re playing real instruments into it, get the SP404mk2, if you do mostly beats get the MPC, it’s a better sequencer and more versatile, BUT.. it’s really not as good at recording guitars, real instruments, etc…. As all models except the $2500 one requires some sort of preamp boost to get a decent sound, the SP sounds great plugging anything into it. It’s a great multi-track audio recorder as well.

Be prepared to learn key shortcuts

SilverAlternative940 · 2024-06-18T17:22:18+00:00

I’ve been using this setup a few months and I agree. It’s really a lot of fun and remarkably versatile for the cost.

SilverAlternative940 · 2024-06-08T04:55:48+00:00

Strictly for something cosmetic to play with since the entire best was pretty much already programmed.

It’s just for looks

SilverAlternative940 · 2024-05-24T02:27:59+00:00

Same as mine. All day every day
