Hey everyone,
I haven't posted here in a while, but now that I am getting better with a keyboard, I am running into some problems.
I want to use my keyboard to key in the motifs and my loops. The problem is, when I key it into Edison, it sounds completely different when I dump it to the piano roll. First of all, it is usualy octaves off; and secondly, it does not pick up the same beats as I key in (ex. whole note instead of quarter or half).
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong or give me some advice on doing it another way? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Lester |

I thought Edison was a recorder/player:conf:
If you're dragging samples from Edison to a Sampler and messing about with it (playing at other notes than C5) it will sound weird.
Drag the files you've recorded into the playlist, or simply choose "Audio into playlist as audio" or something along those lines when you record instead of using edison.
i'm not really sure if im answering to what you are asking, but hope it helps nonetheless.
might be you should be recording midi and not audio. that's what i'd do at least. |

Well, I want everything to be on the piano roll and quantized. The problem is, its hard to visualize where I want the notes positioned on the piano roll in order to match the rythms that I am visualizing.
Maybe I need to be doing this another way...
Thanks for the reply.

Playing with a metronome going will do what you want, assuming you aren't into swing or something. Cause most modern EDM uses snapped notes for melodies and stuff.
If you record what you play, you can play the audio whilst playing what's on the pattern thing, and look at the timing rather then just hearing it.
Umm, yea. Hope that helped! :D |
