round robin sampler sound

[20Mg]

I may be using the wrong terminology.. im currently fiddling around with chris heins bass.. im just wondering if theres any way at all to improve the round robin as i get a bit of a machine gun effect when i do triplet or running bass sound at a moderate bpm.

If you are using Round Robin, that means the samples are being used in a circle by chronological order, meaning it goes through a sequence of the same sample until it goes back to sample 1 think of it as a circle and the engine moves on to the next sample after the previous one has been played, this is different to how superior works in that is has 30 samples that are randomly chosen however the same sample cannot be played again until the rest have been used. Either way that all is a sample for what is called multisampling

Even if you had 3 samples max, that would still prevent a moderate amount of machine gunning. In any sequencer or VSTi there is the possibility of turning off the multisampling which would cause that to happen and some instruments default is set with the multisampling off, so for starters double check to make sure your multisampling is enabled.

Hey man thank you for that.. Im currently at work and ive been googling around to read this function. Ive never came across that option when i was using kontakt 2 player.. r u able to roughly point me to the right direction? thank you

I don't know much about Kontakt since I have never used it, but somewhere in the options and preferences there should be something that toggles that. It could be in an ooptions tab deep inside your engine settings, it could be in the VSTi options within the GUI, or it could be right out there in the open. I will look it up and see what I can find.

sweet. im gonna head home now to figure out. catch ya later mate.

hey mate, i dont see anything that indicates the existence of this particular function.
:/

your sampler most likely doesn't have multisampling, its just one sound for e certain note at a specific velocity. Its annoying i know, to deal with the gayness of duh-duh-duh-duh-duh

u r right mate, it doesnt have multisampling :S
btw have u heard of the kevintweedy patch? very very interesting..His way of fixing the machine gun efx is really innovative and smart.
but he doesnt have patch for kontakt 2 player.
Man theres so many diff versions of kontakt its starting to tick me off.
