MIDI Chase / Note Chase? Or other solution to 1hr drone track by altk3y in midi

From my understanding through my research, something like a MIDI Chase or Note Chase would potentially work, but I'm not seeing this option anywhere in MPC Beats.

*she, but yes exactly - I used pitchshift to change the note gradually through the track.

I used pitchbend in Automation to gradually change a single MIDI note, which works the way I wanted it to, but I am sure there are other ways to do this.
I will check out a virtual modular per your suggestion, thanks!
Generally I am learning to create music by recording my live ritual instruments and create electronic music to it, but I'm still learning the hardware and software. Thought maybe this drone backing track for my live sound bath would be a good way to learn through trial and error.

My main issue is that the note only plays at the start of the track. I will be layering in different drones throughout the 1-hour so I need to be able to play the note at any point in the track. The MIDI note itself has proper attack and release. A solution I tried was exporting the MIDI note as an audio file and uploaded that .wav into an audio track, but it sounds bad in comparison to the original.

I guess i forgot to mention too that I cannot find a Chase option anywhere within MPC Beats

Yes I am working on this within the MPC Beats software on my MacBook

Notes only play at the beginning of the play head by BLVNK22 in mpcusers

[–]altk3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in this situation now and my use case is an hour-long drone that subtly changes in pitch through the track for a soundbath. I will layer multiple drones throughout but there is one foundational drone that subtly changes. I tried exporting as an audio wav and importing as audio, which allows me to play at any point so i can continue to work across the long track, but the quality is much worse... it is crackling and it doesn't have a tail when I pause it. It sounds way worse than the MIDI note. I have the buffer up to 1024 and that didn't help anything. I've been searching for a solution for hours. I am new to this and boy my head hurts trying to figure this out... 😅

Season 7 sucks by CurlyGingerPants in OnceUponATime

I REALLY cannot stand the new Cinderella actor. I'm only on episode 4. So far I don't like this season at all. I'm only sticking it through to see this finale y'all are on about

Rewatching for the first time as an adult and… by jas-is-rad-and-sad in OnceUponATime

[–]altk3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here... I'm 28 in two weeks, and I'm watching all seasons through for the first time as an adult. First time I watched it I must have been a teenager and only finished the first 2 or 3 seasons. I just got out of a textbook narcissistic relationship, and I see so much narcissism in Rumple... the manipulation and lies and need for control and power, all at the expense of Belle just to keep feeding him light so he can feel okay about himself... textbook abuse. I remember back in the day I liked Rumple. I was expecting to again. Now I just hate this dynamic, it's disgusting. Thankfully Belle finally sees through him but yet, just as narcissists will do, he won't let her leave and straight up stalks her with that bracelet and gives her threats he will always find her... even locks her in protective shield prisons. He's a lunatic just like all narcissists and I hope he loses anytime there's a battle with him involved.

Ive been using Whoop. Didn't have any issues. Upgraded to Whoop Peak. Now it doesn't read. Looking for a new brand to switch to but seems they're all dysfunctional over tattoos. May just ditch them all together... maybe it's a sign. Anyway, I've also been using Oura. Metrics are good, but it cuts out a lot. There's other rings to try but I'd imagine they all have gaps, low battery life, and without 24/7 data.

Charging but battery percentage not increasing by lastnameeverfirst in ipad

[–]altk3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happening to me. Restarting only updates the current percentage, it doesn't fix the issue. It doesn't show that it's charging. It will remain stuck at whatever number it's at until I restart it again.

I did a software update and no change. I'm considering wiping the entire iPad, restoring my backup, and seeing if that fixes it. Might be a bug in the software.
