ris8_allo_zen0 Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 Hello folks,I have very little practice on such things, but this morning I had some kind of "illumination" for a device which I don't now if it was ever realized or not.It's a kind of a "smart" loop sampler which listens to MIDI notes and analyzes the root key or the current chord, as well as the timing scheme (it can also get this data from a running sequencer); then it selects, from an internal database, the sample waveforms which best match these musical data. Obviously each sample has some metadata that describe its harmonic/rhythmic structure (e.g. the notes sung by a singer and the start/stop points w.r.t. a measure).The DJ/composer chooses one or more of them and puts them in a little timeline, which runs synchronized with the incoming MIDI data.This would allow to make remixes and mashups nearly on-the-fly.Where and how such a thing is realized?Thanks, RAZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stryd_one Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 I'm guessing you could use MAX for that.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidBanner Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 or you could just get yourself a set of ears!it only takes a few secs cueing in the cans to hear if something is out of key.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
