I’ve been playing around with the ability of GA to take an audio loop and slice it up into its component hits & map them to a midi pattern.
One loop I have is spoken word and using transients to detect slice points doesn’t really work for it. So I thought I could just change the slice Mode to Manual and make the slices myself. However in Manual Mode it sees the entire loop as a single slice (fine as far as that goes) but I can’t find anyway to add a new slice point (not fine). Couldn’t find anything in the manual regarding Manual Mode. Figure I’m missing something obvious, so…
No German here. But I could see he was doing exactly what I wanted & eventually figured it out.
By default when I put the audio on the pad it had one slice containing all of the audio. What I needed to do was move the end of that slice earlier so it becomes the 1st slice I want. Then on the unsliced right side of the waveform I can alt+click to add new slices.
Interesting post. I was wanting to map some vocal hits to the GA myself and got some interesting results. The Warp inside of GA worked on some parts. I liked having a kind of beat-box kit. I have to work with it more.
On that project I ended up creating regions and then bounced those and time stretched them. Anyway, good luck, it sounds interesting.
