Oldschool Sampling of vinyl. Getting rid of pitch variation. How?
View this Thread in Original format

I have a lot of wicked sounds I have sampled of vinyl, is there a way to fix the timing so I can use them in my own productions?
Is there a way to get rid of that speed variation on vinyl rips and samples.
What software could do this?
Thanks in advance for any input :)

THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Can you explain briefly how this is achieved in ableton.
I will download the demo and get right at it.

If you've ripped a full vinyl you can throw it into Ableton and then it's just a case of setting beat markers for each hit ... depending on the track you're working with this could take 10 minutes or 10 days.

my turntable spins well enough so that it doesnt have a varying pitch?

All turntables variate a bit because of the moving plater.
Better ones variate a lot less but still...
When sampling you need to get the timing 100% spot on.

yeah, i only sample effects and one time sounds from vvynl, but i have had some great luck, i have a turntable with a digital pitch controller that is on enough for me tto do a little sound forging and i gat a nice loop... nothing "professional" though, but it works for me

You probably own the M5G or something similar thats why you can get away with it.
I have an analog pitch that variates a bit .

Quartz locking is important here.
What turntable you have?

Quartz Lock won't help if a vinyl doesn't track properly.

Do you mean skipping and this like that?
Quartz will keep it at the same speed. For example watches use quartz crystal to keep the time aswell. If the track is skipping then obviously quartz isnt going to help.
