Video example of slicing a sample to create new pattern

[zvon]

Besides the one that is sliced, two other different samples from the Memory Collection Pack 08 are used. Here everything is done manually in Caustic 3 but the same can be done with many other software and apps. The slices could also be prepared in a stand-alone audio editor and then imported in a drum sampler.

Note that not all the original sample has been sliced, I extracted 6 short slices from it and only 4 are used in the new pattern.




Of course there are many apps (desktop and mobile) that automatically slice a sample, here I am using VirSyn ReSlice. Results are wilder because slicers can really mangle the samples too. ReSlice, with its fine arpeggiator is very good at this.





The Memory Collection Packs are composed of audio samples from Public Domain movies and TV shows.
