What Does FL Do to Samples In This Mode?

[Eclectrophonic]

Hi All!

So I had a kick drum sample in Reaper and at the end of the kick drum (placed as audio in the arranger) there was this little hissy glitch (only minute but bugged me). Couldn't get rid of it. The same behaviour in Reason.

I stuck the same sample in FL Studio. No hiss, no glitch. When I looked in the channel settings, the only thing I could see that might make a difference to how the kick drum sounded was either the Declicking Mode or the Timestretching Mode top right. After trial and error, it turned out to be the Timestretch mode 'cause if I switched it from it's default of Resample to Stretch, the hiss and glitch at the end of the sample came back.

I looked it up in the manual (see screenshot). Can anyone explain what exactly it's saying / doing there?

Thanks!

Drop the WAV in a proper audio editor, and zoom in on the end. Me thinks you'll see that hissy glitch right there. Me also thinks it gets chopped off when the sample gets stretched.

Render it to a seperate WAV, with and without the glitch. Zoom in and look what the difference is.

I tried to remove it in Reaper by shortening the clip but although it did get rid of it that way, you could then notice the difference in hiss when the clip reached the end and went back to silence. FL Studio doesn't do this. U have a hunch something else other than just shortening is happened.

I will try what you said though in a mo and report back.

Yeah, the clips are exactly the same length.
