Keyboard Part help on ESX-1

[Gilbatron]

Hi there,

I am having a little trouble making synth patches / Keyboard parts on my ESX1

I know how to load a sample to the keyboard part but how do I get it in tune so when you play the note on the keys your base note is in C therefore when playing the next note it will be a D, E etc etc working like a proper synth??

Is the trick to tune the sample to C before you load it into the ESX1. I am trying to create those long sustained leads sounds that work so well with the appg mode reversed but i am getting a little bored of the factory synth parts.

And what kind of of samples would be best to use? The factory samples work so well as synth parts. I am just not sure how to go about making these kind of synth patches.

If this makes sense to you some advice would be fully appriciated.

Cheers

I never bothered to tune them, I just play with the keyboard until it hits the note I want, then I record a sequence. obviously this could be problematic if you want to change synth parts, but I guess tuning your samples to a C before loading them should do the trick
