recycle time stretching/pitch a bassline

Hello,

I sampled this open bassline off vinyl and put it in recycle to slice. Now the thing i am trying to do is use the orignal 4 bass slices plus make the same 4 slice a pitch up..example: the bass notes are A B C D in one octave..but i want to also change the C note to a G note and use it with same tempo just a different pitch to get to the G

Basically trying to scale the sample seeing as they only gave me these 4 notes on the record and not the other notes (E F G), plus not an octave higher or lower..

Then save each of the notes to put back into the MPC so i have at least to octaves of the notes to play of that sound..

any help is greatly appreciated

Thanks

PS: kind of like the 16 level multi pitch, but the sound will not be mangled to bad!

any one out there!!! to help us!

Assign to multiple pads and then tune them to your liking.I think that should work.

Recycle is not a traditional timestretcher.

It slows down or speeds up the playback of the slices, rather than changing the actual length of the sample.

If you want traditional timestretch, you should pitch in CoolEdit, or SoundForge, or Acid (or the MPC!) before you import into recycle, then do the chopping.

Or, as stryke said, chop in recycle, and then tune in the mpc.

Hope that helps.

The thing is i think that most people use recycle to just chop loops, and match to correct BPMs..I think this is just another option to creating somewhat synth patches and expand the use of this program..

Let say you took a sample of a guitar note that you liked from a James Brown record. you just want to use that one note..now if you 16 level multi pitch, it starts to sound like crap..even if you loop the end of the note, decay, etc..it eventually the note will sound unatural..So, with pitching and stretching you could get more exact sounding notes!!

Therefore you get James Browns guitar sound/note and you have some what made a James Brown guitar synth patch to use on your MPC.

If you could just create several slices of the same note, then pitch/stretch each of the sliced notes. then save each of the individual sliced notes to load into your MPC.

I just think that you could take the use of recycle and sample manipulation a step further..

I thin that is what me and BYN are trying to get to.

I think it would be some what equal to how I think and have heard the VP9000 to work. you could make synth patches of your samples of anything! Maybe you want a few of Herbie Hancock piano notes and the sound from that LP to flip/and re-arrange to your own. I think doing something like this would expand your crates!!

just use recycle to get the loop right, then use another program to pitch shift that note up.

what program would you recommend? Even though i think it is possible to get the results in recycle.
