![]() You then assign that sound to a note, and when you play that note on whatever controller you're using, it will play the sample.ĭoes the device need to be one-shot operation - doesn't need manually switching off at the end of sample. Instead of coming with a bunch of piano/brass/string/wibbly sounds, it's just a bank of empty memory for you to record your own sounds to. ![]() So it looks like my main hold out right now is to see if I can get Giada running or if something else comes down the pike.In a nutshell, like the "engine" of a keyboard. There was mention that it would work with Wine in Linux, albeit with quite a bit of latency. If anyone has checked out the Sound Plant program I linked to above, that is kind of what I am after, but the bad thing about Sound Plant is that it doesn't sync AND you have to use Windows. But I don't know how far I will get with that since it needs Jack. So it would seem that Kluppe would be next in line. However, for my project that wouldn't be too much of a problem as I am mainly interested in the program to 'build up' a song using key controls.Īs I said, I don't think SooperLooper would be up to the task since the emphasis is not on looping samples, but live recording looping. ![]() The bad thing about Giada is that it doesn't use MP3's, you have to use WAV files. Thusfar this seems like it MIGHT be a contender as it does have the key assignments. From what I can see, there are not that many posts in the forum, so I don't know how long the program is out and furthermore how the support is. I did sign up to the Giada forum and left a message there as to why I am having an issue with the sound not functioning. But if you use outside samples, more then likely it will not sync. If you record the tracks within the program one after the other, then they will sync. Basically the best way to explain SooperLooper is that it is akin to a Multi-Track tape recorder. SL seems to be more 'record on the fly' oriented rather than sample syncing oriented. I have not tried Kluppe yet, but I do have SooperLooper. Yes, I did try to run Freewheeling with Jack as well, just to see if it would 'fire up' but it doesn't. This program WILL sync loops, but thusfar I have not found a way to map the keyboard to the samples.ĪutoStatic wrote:And it should work with ALSA so seems like a good option! There's also Kluppe and SooperLooper but both rely on JACK. In Linux, one program I am taking a liking to is LMMS (Linux Multi-Media Studio). Granted I was looking for a program for Linux and I can use Sound Plant if I have to, but it still isn't what I am looking for. What I am looking for is for the samples to sync up like they do in Fruity Loops. The samples on each key don't sync up unless the samples are precisely timed and you push the keyboard key EXACTLY in time with the loop(s) that is playing. Overall this is ALMOST exactly what I am looking for, but there is a problem. You can set the key to one shot, restart, and even loop. Naturally the keys correspond to the keys on a computer keyboard. It is different in that instead of sample slots, you are presented with a keyboard and you load samples into each key. Here is the link:Īs you can see when the page loads up is a screenshot of the program. In Windows I discovered a program called Sound Plant. ![]() In fact I am leaning more towards audio samples. I doubt SEQ24 would be any good since I would like to use both MIDI AND Audio Samples. Live is a great program and I have a 'lite' version for Windows.however even the 'lite' version is a bit too heavy for my needs. Shame though because it does do the key assignments. So unless it something happened in the download or installation, I don't think it is going to work on my system. Jack kicks Giada out completely as it doesn't even show up in the connections box. I tried it with direct ALSA and also through Jack. I tried Giada out and unfortunately it doesn't seem to work on my system. ![]()
