Easiest way to sample your VSTi to SF2 [Chainer]

Sometimes you get a VSTi and you realy only use some presets
Having the whole VSTi on takes mb's and cpu when you use the sound
So sampling those sounds whoom you like a lot would be the solution
Another situation
You made a fabulous Superstring and want to play a chord with it
Because of the Unison you cant play a chord with it
Simply sample the sound that you made and then you can play chords on it while keeping the powerfull sound

This way you get the result as SF2 [uncompressed] or wav
SF2 is readable and convertable to many formats and has a preset
And you can make multisample presets and even multi VSTi

So how big the preset ends up is all up to you
Just imagine loading up various VSTi synths and play them at ones
On top of that you can put VST Plugins
Thats a way to build SUPER FAT VOICES

Here's a simple way to do this in a blink of the eye
As a standalone without the need of your sequencer

Get Xlutop Chainer v1.03
http://www.xlutop.com/html/chainer.html

Install and run it
then it will automaticly search for your VST and VSTi PlugIns

-Load a VSTi at your first sloth ,Click the arrow ,Left Top
Now you can play your midi keyboard and hear the sound

-Editor 1 Gives you the VSTi Popup
-Editor 2 Gives you some editor sliders
At the end Double Click the presetname and copy it [Exit = Press Enter]

Goto FILE / EXPORT

Now set your save to folder
Push the Browse buton behined FILENAME and browse to a folder on your hd
Paste the presetname as filename and set format to SF2 and enter

Right click on the keys of the virtual midikeyboard to hear the sound
Left to select a note to be sampled [Left again to unselect]

I select C1 as the first note Then six notes up the next till F#5
Ending with 10 samples thats 8.24 mb

You can adjust the Hold [ms] to make longer or shorter samples
I put it on 4000 That way i can edit it later to make a perfect loop

Hit export and your good to go

AKAI Images ISO,BIN,NRG & How 2 Create Your Own AKAI CD

AKAI Images are NEVER directly Read-able on Your PC
THAT IS NOT AN ERROR OR A FAKE!!!
Use CDXtract to read the CD

WHY ????
--------------
AKAI samples are made on an AKAI Formated Disc
[Thats WHY your pc-mac Can't directly read from the cd and you need CDXtract]

Creating An AKAI CD From GIGA Files:
You can make E-MU, Ensoniq, Yamaha CD's this way too
use Chicken.Systems.Translator

GIGA TO AKAI:
1] open chicken
2] hit drives-folders
3] select the folder with the giga files
4] R-click the folder do convert as AKAI-fILE iMAGE
5] Select destination folder
6] You get .ak 1 files

Creating An AKAI CD:
1] Open Chicken
2] 6e icon = Create Virtual Drive
3] Now you can set the wanted size
4] Inside Chicken Select the folder that holds the ak 1 files
Right screne shows the ak 1 file
Left scroll down to the Virtual Rom You PRE-MADE
Select the files you want to drop into the partition
And just drag and drop the ak 1 files into the EMPTY PARTITION

Run the IMG with Deamon and Read it with CDXtract

How To Check Your Image Before Calling It Corrupted PC:

1] put the image [iso,nrg ,bin] in DEAMON
http://www.daemon-tools.cc/dtcc/portal/index.php

2] put the image [iso,nrg ,bin] in Alcohol 120%

3] put the image [iso,nrg ,bin] in CDXtract virtual image

4] Then try if CDXtract can see any of the sounds on any one of the virtual drives

5] Then do a check if CDXtract is WORKING ok and i'll test a tested ok
akai sample cd to see if you CAN see sounds on THAT disc

6] put the image [iso,nrg ,bin] in VF Editor
This one can take stuf from your cd if others can't read it

If your .iso looks like a .rar file do this to avoid problems
Open rar and go to options/settings/Integration/UN-SELECT ISO

This way you wont think you can un-rar your .iso

.toast:
-------
Just change name.toast TO name .iso
Toast is the MAC extention for an iso image

Change .toast to .iso is ONLY needed for PC users
Because we can't use .toast it's for MAC

Image:=.iso/.bin-cue/.nrg
------
An image is the CD-ROM as data ,You can BURN .iso on a CD
On the iso image is an AKAI sample cd
You can use the cd for your hardware sampler and some soft samplers

DEAMON virtual-ROM:
-------------------
You can also download DEAMON virtual-ROM image reader
With that soft you can load the image and use the stuf from the cd WITHOUT burning it

CDXtract:
---------
CDXtract can read Images from DEAMON-Alcohol And CDXtract [Virtual Drives]
This is the most used way to check if the image is OK before burning it
You can also use CDXtract to convert AKAI to other formats like
GIGA-PULSAR STS-SOUNDFRONT-AKAI S5k/6k-AKAI MPC-KURZWEIL-VSampler2

This is definitely the wrong place to post this question... but to answer it before it gets deleted... Assign the instrument that you want to a particular mixer track, and then add effects to the mixer track.

There is no search feature at the moment because of the 250 Poll....


I am in need of information and..


There is no Sweeps tutorial on the first page of this so called "Master List"!

Want to explain what that's supposed to mean for the benefit of those of us who probably think it refers to janitorial work?

It must be hard to see with your head so far up your ass

Wow, that's clever. I've never heard anyone say something so clever before. Do you write your own material?

Please, keep this thread civil. If you have something to contribute, by all means contribute, otherwise STFU.

Difficulty: Easy
Time Required: Varies on the Size of the Floor
Here's How:

1. Choose a Broom

Find a broom that fits with your floor type. Smoother floors can get by with synthetic brooms. Rougher floors may need natural fiber brooms to be as effective. Choose a broom with an angled edge for cleaning under cabinets and in tight spaces. Make sure your broom is at a comfortable height, and not too heavy to manage.

2. Find a Starting Place

When sweeping a room, there are a couple of different methods. Some people like to walk the perimeter of a room, sweeping from the edges into a pile in the center. Others like to begin at one end of the room and move to the other pulling the dirt pile along with them, or eliminating the pile in sections. Choose a method and starting point that works for you.

3. Start Sweeping

Sweeping isn't a difficult motion to master, but try to keep continuous contact with the floor, without pressing the broom strands down into the floor. Begin on a section of floor away from your body and gently drag the broom towards your body. You can use short quick motions or long sweeping motions. Choose whichever better fits your sweeping style.

4. Sweep Up Your Dirt Pile

Sweep dirt into a pile. Sweep the dirt pile into a dust pan and then deposit it in the trash. Be careful not to dump the dirt too quickly, causing dust and dirt to billow back into your face, or onto your clean floor.

5. Put Away Supplies

Put away all of your supplies and be sure to clean your broom if needed. Hang your broom to prevent the bristles from becoming bent or damaged, or sit the broom upside down for storage.

Tips:

1. Avoid getting your broom wet. It damages the broom and shortens its life span.
2. When washing a broom, make sure that it dries thoroughly upside down, to prevent bristles from being bent or damaged.

What You Need:

* Broom
* Dust Pan
* Trash Can
