You might also consider EQing the overtones and frequencies that aren’t the fundamental a little lower in relation to the fundamental. That often makes the sound more pleasing to the ear and a bit less dystopian. (Unless you’re going for a creepy vibe of course... then the overtones are invaluable) Also, layering multiple EQed octaves of the same sounds lovely.

Just a small point Christian but I find that drag and drop of your .nki's (I'm guessing Kontakt 5 .nki's) into Kontakt 6 on Win 7 Studio One Pro doesn't work for me. I have to "load" them. Had me flumuxed for a while after I watched you drag them onto Kontakt's interface. Standalone Kontakt 6 does however! Great tut by they way and David is an excellent watch for Kontakt instrument building. Thank you.

When Christian suggested that we film ourselves in the process and share our findings, did he mean specifically putting our own samples into this template that he introduced? Or does it just generally relate to creating sampled instruments from household objects, template or no template, and sharing our experience? Thanks in advance.

Thanks but the template didn't work for me (: followed your outline to the letter but kontakt 5 seems to assign the velocity layer of the sample randomly..?
@actonblue20124 жыл бұрын
It did not work for me initially either. However when I went under the bonnet in Kontakt 6 my wav file was correctly mapped to the velocity layers but in the Wave editor the start and end markers were back to front. When I re-set the markers correctly (ie start marker at the start of the wave etc)it worked. I think this might be due me not editing my files to the zero crossing points. Does Kontakt automatically detect the zero crossing? I wish Kontakt could be resized I cant afford an electron microscope. Thanks Christian for this great tip I am sure I will get better. Btw I sampled a muted guitar.....it has it's moments.

I'm new to Logic and am hitting a few conceptual problems getting set up to split my dynamic layers for use by the sampler. I was expecting to find a .logicx template file to set up the general project space, but there are only .exs files which are, presumably, just Sampler configurations. Can anyone steer me in the right direction? BTW, this is great stuff - having a blast creating unique sounds this weekend!
@jeremythornton69304 жыл бұрын
In case it's not clear, it's the template with the 10 zones which is used at 12:55 that I'm looking for. The MMD templates linked above appear to be the sampler specific configurations used in the next step rather than the broader Logic project template which is used by Christian.
@jeremythornton69304 жыл бұрын
Got there in the end. The logic template isn't necessary as all it really looks like is visible highlights to mark where your noise separated samples need to end up. Might be worth adding for completeness though! Awesome stuff - love the approach - seems like a super efficient way of sampling single tone sources. Thanks Christian and Spitfire for the levels of enthusiasm and commitment to making music!
@jeremythornton69304 жыл бұрын

Actually, I'd never thought of this when originally watching the videos on first impressions on new Sampler, but is it because of Mr. Hilowitz that you -even subconsciously- named the Sampler "Dave"? :)
@mattclarke994 жыл бұрын
Hey, so a question for anyone who might have the answer... I made my first sample following the instructions for Kontakt, but for some reason the higher pitched samples are shorter in length than the lower pitched samples. eg. C6 is much shorter than C3. Any thoughts on why that happens and how to fix it?
@SimonLeoBrown4 жыл бұрын
That's how the sample is pitched by the software - the faster it is played, the higher the pitch. Just like speeding up or slowing down a tape.
