Hi Charles,

I just looked back to your tuto in a deeper way. Finally I think I've understood but just one thing : how did you divide your initial sample and get the 64 steps in the Kronos ? Did you use the Time Slice function in Kronos Sampling mode or did you use another software ?

Thanks

I just used Cubase but I think you can use time slice too. I haven’t looked at time slice in detail yet to make sure.

I can confirm you can do it using Time Slice in sampling mode on the Kronos, either by using automatic slice detection, or setting the sensitivity to 0 and manually using the divide button to create equal sized slices.

This will create a single multi sample with each slice mapped to a key. As it’s a single multisample, it’s unfortunstely not ideal for wave sequencing, so you’ll need to create seperate multisamples to be used in a wave sequence.

A moment to reflect... HD-1 can officially do:
-real PWM
-real osc sync
-real granular/wavetable synthesis
This is a sampler engine we're talking about doing way more than a sampler should!
Hey Charles, how are you getting OSC SYNC in the HD1 engine?

Hey psionic, I go over it in this video:

It's pretty neat! I actually thought of a way you could add a sync effect to something like a vocal sample using a technique similar to this with a granular synthesizer. And even have it play polyphonically! Maybe one day I'll make a tutorial on it but I'm a little bogged down with projects at the moment.

Thanks so much for confirming that, SeedyLee. The Kronos FTP is probably the best way to go about doing something like this in the future.

That's awesome!

Even though it has limited playability, I love that it can be done at all.

Gonna have to check out the PWM too. Thanks again.
