When are you guys messing with the tempo? Like first thing OR do you pick the sample, record it, get your start and end, tap out the tempo and then chop, then stretch the next track loop(s) (if necessary)? I can't quite figure out how this box "warps" and time stretches samples, but I've only been hitting it hard for about a week - someone told me the 1 step for 5 BPM trick but its kind of been driving me crazy getting stuff to match - they have 3 pages on how to copy a track but nothing about how this handles samples
Hey man. So for me it varies. Really depends on what I am going for, too. If I find a sample I like, I might chop it, play with it and try to feel what tempo it needs, then tap it in. That way you usually get something that is in time. But there’s other ways. If you have a sample that is, for example, 4 measures long or any multiple of it, you can just press the B poti down and it sets the sample to a loop, automatically adjusted to your project tempo. It has its limitations and can’t do crazy things like some Ableton time-stretch but it’ll mach your beat and you can double or half time it, too. If you change the tempo, it’ll adapt to that. Hope that helped.
@@197979jones Yeah, I've already used that to pitch it down a bit in the video. Really, the only thing I am not happy with is how the Reverb on this thing sounds. The rest is pretty damn amazing.
@@vvlvmusic For me it needs a spring reverb. And separate the EQ independently from the FX section. I need EQ and FX together. Also the pattern screen keeps disappearing when a pattern is selected - needs an option to keep the pattern screen ON.........Apart from those minor gripes - its a very cool box and very mature for v001
@197979jones yeah, there’s room for improvement but for a 1.0 (or 1.1 now) it’s really solid and packed with great ideas. Pitching slices per step would also be great.
Thanks man. Gotta say, I am really liking this little box a lot. Packs quite some features. I do have some minor things I hope they’ll address in future updates but overall it’s pretty amazing 👌🏻
@TheWaxidermist sure, anytime :) hard to say if I prefer one. They’re doing similar things very differently. I love the style, fx and overall ease of use of TE but this one definitely packs more features and offers a more complex approach at doing stuff. KO is more immediate and stylish, XT goes deeper.
Ultra specific question, but I’m curious, how do you get your video to look so good on RU-vid? Seems like you’re really beating the compression. Any tips for rendering/optimizing the video file?
Hey. Love to get specific, so here we go: I edit my videos in Resolve and export 4K footage, using QuickTime format and the H.264 codec. Quality set to automatic. So nothing fancy, but this is answering from memory. Gonna check at home and edit this if I notice any discrepancies.
