more envelope shapes for manual grains - especially ramps
a way to limit the number of voices for manual grains - this might just be the poly sample player though
a convenient workflow for sampling into slices OR for sampling into files in a folder without having to manually input the name. These could then be loaded with multiselect. The goal would be to reduce friction when doing sampling tasks like sampling a bunch of different drum sounds. I think someone may have already asked for something similar.
I donāt know if I ever requested it but similar to the last bullet point Iād love the ability to insert, prepend, and append slices (if I could only have one it would be to append)
When it comes to devices as Manual Grain and Variable Speed Player: the ability to adjusting looping point angle (for more or less glitching) would be awesome.
Iād love to see a dedicated unit for some on the spot time stretching functionality. Itād be awesome to punch into a warpy / stuttering time stretch with the ability to refrain from pitching the audio up or down.
Also, some of the functionalities of the ADDAC 112 would really shine in the ER301, such as being able to scan / morph parameters between two or more preset states!
If memory / ram permitted, itād be amazing to be able to swap sample files from a pool with pre-saved slice points similar to how the 112 can switch between different sample files within the same project ( i donāt own a 112 and itās rather late so Iām not sure if this is even a thing ahaha)
Hi Brian I hope youāre fine
I was wondering if it was possible to add some sort of pre-recording volume threshold function as behavior on the multitrack recorder (maybe also in sample units?). I speak as a classic MPC user. I think itās very convenient to be able to set the inputs and start recording without worrying about setting up a gate or a trigger for this, but record when the input volume exceeds a certain threshold.
As soon as the volume drops below the preset threshold (basically a simply gate).
but the threshold volume function is present in most samplers.
This is the MPC screen
as you can see the threshold is set to -48db, naturally must be set to a higher value, so when the highest volume occurs at the input the recording will start automatically, same thing for the stop.
All samplers and multitrack recorders would become much more usable
That really works? Donāt you need some hysteresis between the on threshold and off threshold? Otherwise Iād imagine the the recording will rapidly turn on and off and on and off.
Select the Threshold field and set the threshold level
to start the recording.
When the MPC1000 is in the recording enable mode,
it starts the recording automatically when the level
of the incoming source exceeds the threshold level.
If you set the threshold level too high, the MPC1000
may not start the recording when you play the input source, or the beginning of the recording may
be missing. If you set the threshold level too low,
the MPC1000 may start the recording before you
play the external source.
in fact, thinking about it I think with a bit of workaround it is possible to implement such a thing with a gate inside the PUNCH chain. For the multitrack, on the other hand, I know not ā¦
Why is this better?
