6. Select Paste Region (6). Use the Data Entry Control to select the
sample to which you want to paste. The display shows:
PASTE secs samples
Offset: 0.00 00000
Select Location
Adjust the offset past that “tt” sound of the word paste. Again use the left
and right cursor keys once you get close. Press ENTER. The sample
should now say, “and paste, cut”.
7. Go back to Cut Region (5). Cut out the word “and” using the
same procedure you used for “cut”.
8. Adjust the offset past the “tt” sound of the word paste.
9. Back in Paste Region (6), use the left and right cursor keys to
adjust the offset. Once you get close, press ENTER. The sample
should now say, “paste and cut”, although it might sound a little
strange. That’s the basic technique. Practice makes perfect.
Now that you have gotten a feel for cut and paste, make up your own
experiments using the various other options such as mixing and
crossfading.
Gain Change & Taper
Sample your voice saying “Ahhh” for one second. This time when you
sample, set the Gain so that the signal only reaches about halfway up the
VU meter at its peak. Also make sure that the sample time runs out
before you finish singing so that the sample is cut off prematurely. We’re
intentionally creating problems so that we can fix them using Taper and
Gain Change.
First, let’s boost the gain to full level using one of the digital tools, Gain
Change. The term for this operation is called normalization. (Don't
worry, it won't make you or your samples normal.)
1. Activate the Digital Processing module.
2. Select Digital Tools I (7), Gain Change (2). The display shows:
GAIN secs samples
Start: 0.00 00000
End: 1.00 44096
Size: 1.00 44096
We want to normalize the entire sample (which is already selected), so
just press ENTER. The display now shows:
