Has anyone noticed in Making Waves that if you are using say a snare with a long decay and its on every 4th note on a channel at 1/16th note resolution, as soon as the second snare hit starts on the 4th note, the snare playing back at the first note is cutoff?

I wonder is this a limitation of Making Waves or is there a way around it?

It seriously prohibits releastic use of fast patterns of snares with long decay/reverb.

Easy fixed, all you gotta do is go to the note length column and scroll it down so the bar becomes a note bar. Now you can set any note length you want (in fact I love to have snare parts side by side, one with a natural decay, and one cutting off, switching between the two).

BTW, very soon Making Waves is going to support midi in and varying note lengths within a bar. Excellent program.

thats the same as using any sampler or sample player..... if you retrigger the same sample, it obviously cant continue to play it's own decay, cos you just asked it to start at the beginning again

uh, Kilo, I'm sure you know better, but a sampler can be set to work either way, and so can Making Waves.

That's what I thought,
there is no reason a sample sequencer, wether hardware or software, could not be reading data from the beginning and the end of a sample at the same time. Samples are stored im memory and you can read from anywhere in memory at any time.

so pmeehan: did you get a regged copy yet or is that still the demo? i find that setting the note value to the "cut off" setting is good for doing synthetic sounding "ratatatat" snare fills, also by combining several snare samples with different velocity levels and cut off settings, you can do fairly realistic acoustic snare flams

Ratfink,

registered. Guess I didn't give it a chance.Playing around with the note editor last night resulted in some very tasty snare breaks

I actually like cut off notes, sounds tighter. I don't know how it is at fast tempi but.
