Sort of off topic but what exactly is multi-sampling

Justin

Sry double post

Multisamples are a collection of single note hits recorded from the same instrument at various intervals up and down the scale.

These are imported into a sampler and can be played like the original (to a degree). That is multisampling.

hmm i usually synthesize my own synths and stuff but for like instruments like guitar or harpsicord or violin or some realistic instrument I typically use samples. Those synths are very expensive. I'd rather get a sample of middle C and work from there. So to answer your question, of course it would be great to synthesize everything, but a combo of both samples and synthesis can still make fabulous sounds.

I always tend to use my own patches, but in my latest track I used a sampled Nord Lead. Just a basic supersaw really. I just couldn't recreate the brightness and the way it sounds filtered.
But I layered it with my own synths to make it sound less generic.

Never use them, I use the occasional acoustic guitar sound (but rarely for trance, though), but I like to synthesize all my sounds, because if I want to change something, I don't have to go and look for another sample, I can just tweak it on my synth.

i never use multisamples for synthsounds.. but a lot for strings, choirs and other orchestral instruments.

Yes it is the only way
