Why would you do that if you're re-sampling?


I technically don't re-sample. today, I developed a technique in which I send the original synth to 3 different tracks, 1 high, 1 mid, 1 low. Then I add the effects. If nessesary, I link those three to another, which is then re-linked to three more.
All my automations are done by sending the final mixer tracks for each initial sound to one with my fruity fast LP.

Seems confusing, but works a fucking charm for a noob like myself

If you're wondering "Why the fuck would you go to that trouble", I never know when I'll want to change a bassline, this enables me to modify notation in MIDI, while maintaining my initial sound

you're missing out on the biggest benefit of resampling like that tho... being able to chop out individual parts of different basslines and pasting them together to create something truly mindblowing (which is how 'the big guys' do it). it's way easier to do it like that than having 4 or 5 instances of massive running parallel with different patches.

Not missing, that's just not how I write tunes, I know about that, just don't do it that way. The aim is to sound unique, rather than be another copy

wise words. just checked your sig for reference, allow me to post OT... any chance of hearing the full track?

I use FL Studio's "Maximus"
I just mute the 2 bands I don't want on each track

Or just use any standard EQing tool and roll off high and low to seperate different frequency ranges on different tracks

I was thinking about just doing that since I'm using ableton. Do you know if ableton has an equivalent tool to Maximus?

That's not what I do though..

Before you get your knickers in a twist. I'm not saying that I'm right and that's the only way. But that's quite simply not my preferred option. Each to their own.
