What is my Sampler up to?
What is my Sampler up to?
So I'm trying to work my way around field recordings and stuff and am facing the following issue. I loaded up an instance of Operator for some kick decay and a field recording I've made into Sampler for the attack/click. I've realised that the sound is changing (after one bar) without me touching anything... See Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/heifu/7al3xpqflrnu/s-KMCBh I have nothing going on in the Sampler chain apart from the pitch envelope in Sampler itself. I realised the sound doesn't change when the pitch is switched off, tweaking around ANY of the pitch settings while pitch is switched on does not solve the problem. The click is basically a one shot. Thoughts anyone? Thanks

Listening on earbuds, cant really hear any difference...
Don't rely on Soundclouds' graphics, how does the actual waveform look? Try a null test?
Cheers

Not relying on Soundcloud at all, the sound does change
I sorted it out with re-sampling the first shot, but I'm still curious finding out about what's actually going on...
I can tell from the waveform in Ableton as well, haven't tried a null test, no.
It's a one shot playing in loop, technically it should not change its sound?!
Re: What is my Sampler up to?
Ok, this shit is getting weird... I just listened to what I posted on my headphones at work (HD25) and the sound did not change. Yesterday when I made that post on both my monitors and my headphones at home the sound did change on the 9th bar. My missus could hear it as well so I'm not crazy.

Cant hear any differences in the audio you posted. You crazy.
Re: What is my Sampler up to?
Well, I gues I actually am.
Headphones at work: all good
Headphones at home: shit
Monitors at home: shit
Dafuq?! I'll probably upload a recording of it playing on my monitors...

Re: What is my Sampler up to?
In all three of the above are you listening from the same source?
IE: from your DAW, or from the same MP3/soundcloud upload?

Re: What is my Sampler up to?
Ok, I listened to the soundcloud link.
Yes, the click is changing (here in the mastering room) on the second set of 8 kicks. On my headphones nope.
This to me suggests it`s a problem with very fast transients as some slower performing monitors won`t be able to catch them, and some headphones won`t have the dynamic range.
Why it happens only after 1 bar though, that`s a mystery. Some kind of slight phase delay issue I reckon.
Very strange.
You are not mad after all.

THANK YOU!!! I thought I had lost it, and my missus, too... Wouldn't be surprised haha, serious lack of sunshine here recently...Lost to the Void wrote:You are not mad after all.
Interesting explanation as well! Thanks!
