Wild!!!

Absolutely bloody loving it! The amount of tunes I edited yesterday was astronomical, just couldn't keep away! Im figuring out away to use it like mi Akai, sample and rearrange, + add things to the track being edited, thats mi task 4 today! Abit long winded, but once I'm used to it, and mi idea works, It should be quicker at certain things than the Akai, but still will never be as good! :p :p

Question?

You know you get the 2 waveforms, when you download a tune into it! say you edit the top waveform, does the bottom waveform alter, or does it stay the same as the downloaded tune until you alter it? or, do they both alter at the same time when you edit, say the top waveform. This is what I'm gonna find out today. If you can play with each waveform indivdually and place both together after editing, then I'm gonna have some fun!! :D :D

Is that understandable, or am i talkin Hi-tec jargon 'ere??:crazy:

I think your talking about the left and right channels when you edit a stereo waveform here.

If you are then use these buttons to switch between editing the left, right and both channels.

I'm running a slightly different version of the software to you, but I think it should be the same on both packages.

Ahhh!!

No, didn't mean that, but you've just shown me summit I didn't know! It's obvious now that the waveforms are left & right stereo sound, we've astablished that! Right 4get about the 2 waveforms, I know what there 4 now, I'll try and explain what I was goin on about..
Step 1) Download saved sample 1, edit it, save as sample 2.
Step 2) I now want 2 add something to sample 2 from sample 1, that I edited out, but position it in a different part of sample 2 and call it sample 3 (finished), like a 'cut & paste' kind of thing!

This is what I thought the 2 waveforms were 4, so you can 'cut & paste' between the 2 & produce a 3rd waveform, the finished product. I'm gonna have to get reet stuck in2 it!!:spin:

OK, this is where you need the multi track editing mode...

You make the various samples that you want to play with (Sample 2, the edited bits of sample 1, etc) and then hit that rectangular button just below the File and Edit menu titles.

This switches you to multi-track mode where you can manipulate up to 4 samples together at a time.

Right click on one of the tracks and choose 'Insert >' to select which samples to stick in the tracks.

Then you can move them along the timeline using the right mouse button and dragging them, crossfade them, pan them, splice them, loop them and generally do all sorts of stuff with them (look under multitrack editing in the help menu).

You can then mix them into a single track by holding down the 'Ctrl' key and clicking on the tracks you want to merge with the left mouse button and then right clicking and choosing 'mix down' or by right-clicking on an empty track and choosing 'Mix Down to Track' this lets you keep building onto a tune.

There's a hell of a lot more stuff you can do with it - you'll probably understand it a lot better than me from using the Akai. Have a play with it and look through the help menu's cos they're pretty usefull.
