I saw your post on the HG Fortune forum, Jimi the P**K. I have sent a small donation via your brother's email and will do a practice of transfer for her conciousness later on tonight. It is little enough for all your generosity.

I am about to restore and upgrade my old site, felisgris, so I will be able to give you a subdomain to host your music and vst files if you want, I think, give me a couple of days.

Sorry I haven't been around. I have to figure out a better DAW. FL Studio's inability to display parallel piano rolls is bugging me all to shit. I seem to be playing around all the time, not putting together tracks.

I will try sandboxie. This program is also useful for running suspect things: http://www.freewaregenius.com/2007/02/19/altiris-svs/

For people that are having trouble removing things, have they tried malwarebytes anti-malware? http://www.malwarebytes.org/ It does take out an awful lot of things that Avira can't touch and is very good with Jump viruses and rootkits.

Keep well and hello to spacemaleparentperson and all my other friends on the forum.

What Does it Do?

3S is a Simple VSTi Sample Player designed to be easy to use and low on CPU. It is a handy tool for both amateur and professional musicians. It can do a number of things.

In its simplest form it will drop any .wav file, into your song/track via midi. This is called a One Shot Sampler. Try feeding it any sample you have ...Drums, vocals. basses .. it'll play em all.

3S will allow you to load up to 4 Samples and assign each to the same note (thus layering sounds) or you can assign each sample to different notes. This is the equivalent of four One Shot Samplers in one small interface. (Need more .. Just load another instance of 3S)

3S also has velocity layers. For example: When you load 4 samples and assign them to the same note, like you would with a multisampled drum, you can tell each sample to only sound when its velocity is triggered. This results in a more interesting and realistic sound.

Those of you that use single layer drum samplers, may not have any multisamples, so we have included a few 4 layer Multi Samples from the Manytone Acoustic Drums, so you can see what a multi sampler can do. To try this just set the velocity area of 3 S to: 0 - 65 for the softest sample, 66 - 95 for the second sample, 96 - 120 for the third sample and 121 - 127 for the heaviest sample. (or any other combination you wish, we have found that these velocities work well for most drums)

Furthermore, 3S supports velocity crossfades, which means that you can overlap those velocity zones to make for smoother blending of the different layers. To use this feature just overlap the above numbers in the setup dialogue.

3S can also be used as a Simple Sample Synth. 3S has a parameter in the note assignment part ( 2 ) called "All". When you load your sample, instead of assigning a note like you would in the "One Shot Sampler", assign the "all" command. This will map the Sample to all Keys and allow you to play your Sample with notes and chords. Try it with a Bass or a Synth sound. Try loading 2 or more samples and assigning them to the all parameter. You can create some nifty sounds layering samples like this. We have had a few instances of 3S playing all the tracks in a song. Drums, Bass, Synth and even Dropping Drum Loops.

Which Brings us to the next thing that 3S will do. It will Drop Loops into your song. You must make sure that you match the tempo of the loops you are using, to your song tempo in your host program. So if you have loops that are 140bpm, then make sure the tempo of your sequencer is set to 140bpm. This is a great way of making some quick Drum Tracks. Load up 4 different loops ... assign each its own note (say C1 , D1, E1 and F1, or whatever you want) and then in your midi track just insert the corresponding note when you want to trigger each loop. If you hear the drums Phasing then you are triggering the loop too soon, try moving the note around and you will get the hang of it. If your loops are precise then 3S will drop them perfectly into your song. Play around with the Tempo to get it all matched up properly as some loops may say that they are a certain bpm like 140bpm, but they may actually be a bit off. All the loops that Manytone will have on our web site will be perfect tempo loops and will have accurate bpms. If you need to drop more loops, just load another instance and assign those loops to different notes in the setup dialogue.

Quick Setup

Overall it is pretty easy once you get a feel for it, so we will not go into too much detail here.

If you need help on up setting up and using a VSTi in your audio program, check with your Host Programs Docs or help files on how to do this. Also the best source of info and help is at www.kvr-vst.com

The numbers in the brackets refer to this image of 3S

Image

Once you have 3S setup as a VSTi instrument, (again ... refer to your hosts docs for help on this)

click the File icon ( 4 ) to load a sample. Click X to unload.

The sample name is displayed in the ( 1 ) dialogue.

Assign a note name or the "all" parameter using ( 2 ) click and drag to change.

The velocity is set in ( 3 ). For oneshots just set it to 1 - 127 .. For multisamples just set each sample to its own range.

Click the Trigger button ( 5 ) to trigger / preview the sound. The trigger button is velocity sensitive depending on where you click it.

Enter notes in your midi track or play live if you have a midi keyboard hooked up ...it's that easy.

Adjust volume, Pan and pitch using the knobs ( 6, 7, 8 )

NOTE: You can "Alt" click a control to adjust in small amounts, or "Control" click to reset to default value. (this is handy for resetting pitch and pan to normal)

Refer to the above "What does it do?" for tips on further use.

If you want more power ..check out Linplugs RM3 Drum sampler, it's more than 18 - 3s's samplers in one unit, and has envelopes, distortion and compression onboard. See it at www.linplug.com

Check out the Manytone site for Samples and Loops to use in 3S. Our "Manytone Acoustic Drum Multisamples" are now available and our "Acoustic Styles" Drum Loop CD will be released soon.

Linplug and Manytone hope you enjoy the Simple Shiny Sampler. If you use it in a song, please let us know if you have an url where we can have a listen.

What are friends for J**I. May you and your band one day visit sunny (:-P)Melbourne or may I be invited to read poetry in your part of the world.

I understood you to say previously that some fellow was about to start charging you for your site. I'm sure you've been given permission to make lots of freeware VST's available to people, like I said, I can give you a subdomain if you want, I have about five domains registered I think, that is once I add the two I am adding today. (Grrr... IT far king housework)

Peace.

i would love to visit sunny melbourne one day, i could handle australia cuz the peeps i've met from there, outside of one, are the -ahem-the cat's meow.
;)

if you could do a subdomain just for vsts, that would be awesome.

it's ethically challenging for me to do it here, but maybe not for you there.

i have a crazy amount of software...60 gigs or so i think, of music stuff alone and much of that lost/abandon/vapeware,

would love to contribute something other than opaque melodies that bug most people to the world.

if i ever get my head out of these present horse latitudes i am pretty much dead in, i will update my site and do my music from there.

too lazy/manic/depressive/pissy to deal yet...

but one of these days.

and should you ever make it up to the dark states of the former us, by all means look me up

poet friendly in these parts.

anyways, what happened with indiehitz/indiehitsproductions was that terry is too broke
(and sick, battling hep c and tongue cancer) to keep the sites alive

and i am wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too poor to absorb the 5 grande price to keep them alive..

i still am paying off the 4100 i had to borrow to pay for julie, and that was bare fuckin' bones.

so he offered to move everyone to mixposure, but it's hard to get noticed in a huge void with 50,000 artists.

sometimes, it's better to let them just come to you.

when they can't find the stuff anymore in the usual places, they will google it and find it if they wanna.

f**k, it's all over the place anyways, from kara moon to icompositions to weird eastern european sites i never knew existed.

yep.

some asshole is undoubtedly even trying to warez it...and it's free, so, like,,

i don't get peeps sometimes,my feline friend.

peace

I don't know what you mean about ethically challenging, J**I, I mean, it's freeware that was intended by the creators to be free. Bung it up, I say, and if people don't want it there, they can ask us to take it down. The only issue I would have is when people have live sites and would rather we link to their site than post their files, as DSK and Novaflash and Kriminal and Angular Momentum and, hell, a lot of people would rather we do, so of course, in that case we would link to their sites.

My sites are actually hosted in Germany and I am waiting for my host to resolve a support ticket re pricing. When I get that solved, I will create the site.

If you go to www.melbournepoets.com and stroll down the left-hand bar, there is an invisible link at the bottom just beneath 'link to come' that shows you the sort of thing I have in mind. But at the moment, only one of the download links is working because with the account I have now, I can't host files larger than 500k.

I've been thinking for a while that while lesitedeburnie is an excellent review site, the world could do with one more. I just don't want to be stuck with all the work, that's all.

There is only one thing, when I do register the site, I won't share the ftp passwords, because I am also hosting other sites for other people, so I can't share access. But someone wants to help me write the pages, I can up them.

Post

well, ya know, i can code a webpage if i have to...the key would be how to get the stuff uploaded to you somehow to upload.

would make more sense to do it once, but i am a sucker for punishment, lol.

we can work it out i'm sure.

let me go scope the link

i like the page, it looks great!!

i will pm ya my email addie, may be easier to work out deets that way.

i think you're on to a good thing, but i wanna suggest also an ancient or gui-less page, as well.

we could set up possibly THE BEST music soft site on the planet.

pm sent.
