okey. don't really know how to explain so i'll add some sounds to ilustrate my problem

first one. this is how the sample sounds when i play the notes on my keyboard (200kb)

and this is how it sounds when i hit play in reason 200kb

it sounds different, well, its sounds ed tbh. how come it does this? i'm kind of a n00b when it comes to this so please help me out.

thanks for you time,

robin

(the first sample (wtf2) was recorded with total recorder, the 2nd one (wtf) is exported from reason)

...or the first one for that matter.

Never use lycos/tripod/angelfire/geocities as your host.

First link worked for me, as for the second link, this is what is should say:

http://members.lycos.nl/niborrrrr/wtf.mp3

And this is what it says:

http://members.lycos.nl/niborrrrr/wtf.mp3%20(200kb)

Anyways, Reason is upping the playback rate of the sample. If you recorded to wav and then imported through a sampler without any crazy pitch/tempo changes, it's most likely a difference in sampling rates.

Lower sample rate --> higher sample rate = Faster playback

I've heard this isn't true for all soundcards though.

But it's true for all samples that have a tempo on one note like the rythm in the wtf's. In reason you can adjust it by lowering the pitch, in the NN-XT left bottom of where you see your samples you can turn some knobs, the left one is to raise or lower the pitch of one key or a keyrange, its called the "root key" in both samplers.

Look, the easiest way is the set rootkey above the range and in the middle of the range or right above the note if you have only one note for a sample. You can see where the root key is by turning the rootkey knob or find the key on the keys which is more grey the the others. If you have set these two you just move the range over the keys to where you samples plays right in a rythm track(for monitoring the right tempo :) )You probably end up an octave higher then where your range is now, but I'm not sure.

i thought the whole idea of samplers was that you could play a sample in every tone/octave you'd like with out it sounding pitched up as :-/

well, if thats not gonna work i'll just have to make the whole melody in fruity (yes thats were the sample comes from) in putt that in the sampler.

thanks for the reply's
