Resampling Question

[stereotactic]

Quick and simple... What resampling technique do you use? For instance, using teh wobblez as an example, do you make your full wobble in your chosen synth, bounce it, then load it up in your sampler for further processing using the root note to play it back, or do you take the raw synth line, bounce it, then apply the LFO in the sampler for the wobble as well as the effects processing?

As with everything production I know there are several ways to flay the same moggy, so I was just wonding if one was more effective/efficient than another?

Probably a mixture of both for most people really, as far as resampling goes there arent that many hard and fast rules, anything goes.

Both techniques good. If bouncing wobble or other rhythmic modulation > sampler, the modulation's rate will change with the pitch as you trigger the sample at different pitches (faster at higher pitches). Bouncing without wobble then applying it after allows you to keep the rate constant when you select a new pitch.

sometimes want one, other times the other

it depends on what you want to accomplish, sometimes the whole point of resampling is to not have to deal with midi at all so loading it back into a sampler can be counter-productive sometimes.

if it was for wobble basslines you are better off exporting at a bunch of different rates then copy and pasting them in the audio channels, it will take a load off trying to remember what lfo speed was supposed to go where etc

i usually process a reese to get the movement thing going then, resample a note of about 4 bars long at the note of C then load that into the sampler and go from there, weather its more processing to get more movement or simply just a filter and crack on with writing the tune.

basically i make the waveform first, then load into a sampler and then filter 9 times out of 10.

ya both, sometimes even together on the same sound.

+1 this. I reckon this also helps with workflow considerably.

no problemo

Both. sometimes I just bounce a long c note then load it in kontakt and add wobbles, sometimes I bounce a wobble and load into kontakt, and sometimes I just load whole previous basslines I've made even if there already playing melodys and everything into kontakt and replay it in a new melody for some fucked up wierd pitch movement. I would recommend just bouncing every bassline you make no matter what it is then later loading it into a sampler and see what works best...

another tip: whenever you have the urge to produce, but you lack the inspiration to bust out a sweet tune (I've been having this problem alot lately), Just open up your favourite VST for creating basses, and open up 1 instance of kontakt. Now start creating all kinds of whacky sounds or some neat bassline sequences (and i mean with Kontakt). Put all your creations in a folder called 'Kontaktwobs' or 'Badman Basslines' or maybe even 'Mashup Br00tal Filthfest BIG BASS' if that's the kind of thing you're in to .

You never know when the sounds you made could come in handy while making a track. This way you're still being creative and not wasting time, while you're also learning about resampling. Win-win situation?
