440 Forums _ Reason _ Creating Samples For Reason

Posted by: feckineejit Wed 2 Mar 2005, 14:43

Hi All,
Recently started to use Reason 2.5, great package, just one thing, i'm trying to create samples myself to use in NN-XT and Rex i.e. taking voice samples from a mic or snippets from a CD I have Audio Hi-jack pro which works fine for recording to .aiff file. I can't use these in Reason cos thy're not compatible obviously. What can I do create/edit my recordings to use then in reason's samplers? Which package do i need to get?
Cheers,
Dirk

You can use AIFF files in the NN-XT sampler module within reason, you will need to do this from the sample editor section of the NN-XT. If you are not familiar with the standard conventions of samplers, ie. key-mapping, layers ect. I suggest you read the chapter relating to the NN-XT in the Reason Operations Manual.

To create your own REX files you will need the http://nav.440network.com/out.php?mmsc=forums&url=http://www.propellerheads.se/products/recycle/index.cfm?fuseaction=displaymain program.

You may also wish to use a program like http://nav.440network.com/out.php?mmsc=forums&url=http://www.bias-inc.com/products/peak/ or another http://www.macmusic.org/softs/softcat.php/lang/EN/id/7000/ to edit your AIFF files from Audio Hijack or other sources.

Hope that helps,

Also, if you have a MIDI keyboard, you can play segmeents of that sample as if they were individual notes, way better than using the Matrix Patern Sequencer in Reason.
