The easy way to dynamic drums - random samples with Squarp Rample

[@MonotrailTechTalk]

Hello everyone! Tackling my most used sample trick with Rample in this one :) Rample / Affiliate links: Perfect Circuit - US - bit.ly/3Q1VbqI Sound of You - EU bit.ly/3DzdFYi Clockface - AS - bit.ly/3YkDJ1B

Probably the best demo video showing the potential of the Squarp Rample

[@MonotrailTechTalk]

Thanks! Glad you liked it :)

I've been sending euclidean triggers to my Rample, some fast, some slow. Makes for some really cool unexpected compositions.

[@MonotrailTechTalk]

Ahh, sounds great! :)

[@DJ-Ophidian]

Really great and clear demonstration. Thanks a lot.

[@MonotrailTechTalk]

You are welcome!

[@MarioGodoyMusic]

I’ve definitely been underutilizing my Rample. Thanks for the tips. Going to dig into it again today.

[@MonotrailTechTalk]

You're very welcome, hope it leads to some new tunes :)

[@PatternRecognitionMusic]

After thinking about it for a bit, I found this video and became convinced - I just ordered a Rample to complete my rig...for now. (We all know it never ends, right?)

[@MonotrailTechTalk]

Happy I could add some knowledge, still love the Rample a lot! But yeah, it's a journey :)

[@turbotambourine]

I love my Rample! I've mostly just been neglecting the random samples but this definitely makes me want to organize some folders with a new sample pack I have and get some variation going on. Anyway, this is inspiring as always! Thanks!

[@MonotrailTechTalk]

Nice! Glad the video inspired you to try some new stuff with your gear :)

[@stephenpisani5727]

Been meaning to set this up with QD. Same kind of idea. Thanks!

[@MonotrailTechTalk]

Glad it was helpful :) Cheers!

[@feralfoods]

awesome advice for improving my patches. the variation really gives it life. great sound.

[@MonotrailTechTalk]

Glad you like it! :)

[@noisehead]

My Rample finally makes sense now!

[@MonotrailTechTalk]

Glad to hear it!

[@joshuamorganmusic]

Thanks so much for this vid! Just got the Rample and still have trouble wrapping my head around how deep it is!

[@MonotrailTechTalk]

You're welcome!

[@bobmichelle]

That"s great, thanks ! Very informative channel as well, don't change anything ! And I also loved that beat at 9:25

[@MonotrailTechTalk]

Thank you! Happy to hear it, and will keep doing this for sure. I have a long list of plans! Cheers :)

The Rample looks like a great Module! For now ill stick with my octatrack for sampling. Im doing similar stuff on it, but if i ever want a Sampler in my case ill get the rample. Nice video:-)

[@MonotrailTechTalk]

It is! But if you have an octatrack I would agree you have all the tools you need for sampling indeed :) Enjoy, and all the best!

[@pixelatedbeatz]

this was great! thanks! Does anyone know if there is a video explaining how to slice loops in RAMPLE?

[@echomodular]

I *literally* thought just today that I ought to use my Rample much more and make some Kits, but didn't know how to start and then your vid just dropped. WHAT. (Thanks!)

[@MonotrailTechTalk]

Haha, nice timing then! Hope it gives some inspiration, and enjoy the module! :)

[@kingosleemer888]

This is great, lots of great ideas here. I've been using Rample as my primary percussion source for quite a while now. What I find the most frustrating is that it takes a lot of work to set up kits, and while some of the things you're doing here turn out great, it sometimes feels like setting up a complex kit that way for one song, or patch, or "kind" of patch, is too much. Not sure there's a good alternative though.

[@MonotrailTechTalk]

Hi there! Glad you like the video :) Totally agree though, setting up kits can be a lot of work and feel weird, like planning/making the sound of a track before making a track :) My solution is to do it the other way around. Just casually collect/make samples and safe them in a folder dedicated to Rample. Every now end then I have a look at the folder and see if it inspires me to make kits. After some time I end up with a couple of drum kits that are useful in different situations.

[@PandaPotPies]

8:05 is crazy useful

[@MonotrailTechTalk]

Hey, glad you liked it! :)

[@Chris-qq7mt]

Nice setup! I accomplish pretty much the same with the Bitbox micro and sample chains. Lovely synth and chord samples at the end. Any samples packs you can recommend?

[@MonotrailTechTalk]

Thanks! The Bitbox is a great tool as well, happy to hear how other people tackle similar ideas :) I don't recommend any sample packs. I do enjoy an occasional visit to Splice, and grab a couple of sounds from different packs. Think that's an easy way to make a custom collection!

[@sebastianschmidt8629]

Yeah

[@jamesc9862]

Question: if I wanted to randomize all four samples at the press of a button (or flick of a switch, etc), would that be possible to patch?

[@MonotrailTechTalk]

Everything is possible within modular! You'd need something like a random voltage generator or sample and hold with noise input, that responds to a gate input from a button or switch. Then just send that voltage to the sample select inputs.

[@MorbidManoeuvres]

awesome stuff, but i have an issue. i load my own kit, and despite all files are correct size nothing ever triggers on gate 3... any ideas ? thanks

[@MonotrailTechTalk]

Thanks! And cant say from here :) Make sure to check the manual, see if there was a way to configure the gate inputs. I do remember you can configure the CV inputs.
