my language skills used to be excellent but i'm all scattered because of a medication i'm eliminating from my life (a benzodiazepine, which messes with cognitive abilities). Sorry for the disjointed nature of this posting. nothing about whether or not i can just treat these things like i did my Akai,
#MILKYTRACKER INSTREUMENTS MANUAL#
FastTracker's manual and Renoise's manual both refer to the "feature" of multisampled instruments, but they don't explain/describe how/why it works. that's to say, there's not much out there. Where is the root note set per sample in Milky? does Milky READ the root note from an XI, WAV or IFF file when loading/importing them? how does the root note apply to instrument creation? why can't i assign the correct base/root note to individual samples separately from each other (changing one changes all)? they import with anything BUT the correct root note. I even resampled the individual samples to 44.1KHz in Sound Forge to make sure they're "standard". i have been totally unable to manually create a multisampled instrument in Milky in cases where the conversion fails. some of the exported/converted XI files load into MilkyTracker seemingly fine while others are insane (i assume Awave Studio is to blame for poorly converting them).

samples are getting converted to 16-bit to maintain the quality of the 12-bit samples (over 8-bit), but the sampling rate is staying the same. i'm converting instruments from "OUT" files (disk images from those hardware samplers) to FastTracker XI instrument files with Awave Studio 9.2. 12-bit at 30KHz from a Roland S-xx sound library. The samples i'm working with right now are non-standard format. is the sample rate of the file a complication? i honestly never dealt with anything other than 44.1KHz samples in a traditional sampler and all the tracker stuff i did with varying recorded sample rates in the sample files never mattered much until now. I get the impression that i'm just missing something really dumb and obvious like trackers being a completely different beast from the Akai sampler i'm used to. neither note reference is the same as what is in the sample's file itself (seen in Awave Studio and Sound Forge). it isn't ever the same as the root note in the sample editor page.

i have no idea what the extra note setting in the instrument editor is. Is a tracker, or just MilkyTracker, a very different beast from a traditional sampler?Įvery time i set the root note on the sample edit page, it changes it on ALL samples. i never had trouble importing Ultrasound patches, tho i never edited them extensively, and i never built any multisampled instruments from scratch in a tracker (just on my Akai). i'm a tracker user from ages ago, so i think i'm familiar with tracker stuff. i've had no trouble with those other samplers, but i've been messing with MilkyTracker for hours, maybe over a day, and i cannot seem to "get it." it doesn't behave as i expect. i'm familiar with the need to assign an accurate root note (the pitch of a recording) to the sample in it's file attributes/properties in order to place it accurately in a keymap. I'm used to working with samplers such as Akai S6000, Kontakt 3 and such. please excuse my messy structure in this message.
