Randomness of TranceGate
Posted: Tue Jun 05, 2012 11:07 am
Hi all, I'm new to electronic producing but have seen some awesome dubstep/psytrance songs with some killer gating in their leads / bass. Looked this up and it seems they use TranceGates. fair enough, I downloaded TranceGate and killerGATE+, some freeware trancegates, and they both work great. HOWEVER, I have ONE problem, and that is that the gate is random... let me explain...
This might be my gate pattern: O is indicitive of Open, as in the sound comes through...
O - O O O - O - O O O - O O O - O - O - O O O - O
Let's just say that's my pattern. I expect it to start EVERY time from here: (look for the ^)
O - O O O - O - O O O - O O O - O - O - O O O - O
^
but instead, even when i pause the track, the gate keeps going and it just starts in a random spot when I press play. I NEED it to start at the same spot EVERY time otherwise it sometimes sounds good and it sometimes sounds bad.
Does anyone know how to get it to start at the same place, every time? Sorry if this is daft, and sorry if my explanation is bad.
Thanks!
