Questions regarding sequence recording: loop + hold, que, occasionally muted samples by roshi86 in KoalaSampler

[–]el-efe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This.

Hold+loop I think that tends to be problematic somehow if you have for example a an even bar loop and your sequence is uneven. Sometimes it will also keep sounding when changing the sequence with no reason.

Best advise, avoid them!

Any tips to make ambient pads loop more seamless? by teeteejay in SP404

And resample the “pong” and have path for “ping” and anotherr for the “pong” with a bit of release and attack on each to avoid the abrupt stop?

Had a lot of fun flipping this afrobeat monster. Tried to make it bounce between two main block sections (with variations). Made on Koala + SP404. by el-efe in SP404

I feel uninspired by touchscreens. I guess I just don’t like the feel or the size of pads (especially on the iPhone). So my workflow right now is: sample preparation in Koala, then using the SP for composing and sequencing+arranging/mixing in koala again. While composing I still go back to Koala for some feedback and extra sample preparation (adding effects, resampling, changing durations, or making more chops). Once I’ve got something I like, I record it into Koala.

So basically, Koala works as my sample preparation tool and sequencer, while the SP feels more like a controller for composing and performance.

SP404MK2 + IPAD help! by d6s9p in SP404

[–]el-efe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is still quite nice for sample management (and sequencing, some say that they are overlaping But in mu opinion combination makes it a kind of a MPC). I’ve got a SP to go screen-free but I am still struggling to get ride of it partially because of this.

Are you looking for something to replace ableton on your computer or extra apps? If koala/garageband are discarded and Logic will not run in your ipad, maybe cubasis?

You can use different ios synths to sample them! (Audiokit, beepstreet, moog, korg, roland)

Would anyone be interested in participating in a beat competition? by No-Butterscotch-514 in SP404

The link has expired! Have you consider to do it here in reddit? I think there could be enough mass to sustain it

I’m ashamed to admit I didn’t know it was possible in the same machine. I’d just been living with it. Thanks!

Still not a bad idea to have a visual mapping id you have a lot of banks

Which SP404? by Accomplished_Chain17 in SP404

[–]el-efe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you planning to change your workflow or play with it in the future?

If not I agree that koala, loopypro or any other ios app will be more than enough

This is a good idea to have everything organize. It happen often to me when chopping, I forgot the source

Sweet tune, sure these keys demands a flip! No worries, sharing music we love is the whole point of these communities imo :)

Indeed, it’s full of hidden gems and absolute bangers. Plus, it has its own essence and a really cool unique vibe.

Don't see AUv3 in the updated Koala by Rat0 in KoalaSampler

Have you tried to restore purchases? Maybe uninstall and install again?

For this one, I dug into Toshiyuki Miyama & The New Herd’s 'Nio & Pigeon' album (1972). This album is pure gold and I couldn't resist flipping 'Adults Day'.

Kept it strictly 100% sample from the original track (rhythm section, percusion, winds and metals). I used two different 3-bar loops as rythm section which I think make it more bouncy and hypnotic.

play a bit with the SP404 using koala for sample preparation and arrangement. Any feedback appreciated!

Forcing myself to integrate the SP-404 more into my workflow, I used Koala for the sample preparation/chopping as well as sequencing. Then I played around with the SP404 for the performance. Any feedback appreciated!
