looping wors MUCH better! wow!

hi guys,
i think nym mentioned it once in a posting but after experiencing it myself i felt like giving it it's own thread.
today i looped about 32 samples and it worked like a **** charm! it was so easy to find clip-free loop points, i sometimes didn't even had to zoom in.
and i remember trying to loop these samples two month before and stopped because i just couldn't loop them without nasty clicks.
so something must have happened without jj telling us.
very very nice!

yeah i don't know what it is, i mean i still get clicks sometimes (especially when changing the pitch of a looped sample)

but for the most part looping is easier to do from further out - and in general. i am getting clickless loops from a less-zoomed state than i was EVER getting, even when i zoomed way in.

though a sample-level user-defined crossfade would still be fantastic, i am pleased to feel like SOMETHING is happening differently in there with looping.

Does anyone know what has changed?

to me, it just loops better...

nah, seriously, you can now adjust loop-points without listening to them. if it looks like it's looping without clicks it will.
i could find a perfect looking loop-point before, but it still cliped like hell.

what version are you guys running? I bought mine mid last month and sometimes I can't avoid that 0 point click...

1.12, first noticed it on 1.11

the click is still there but i notice it less. i could be wrong and i guess it could just be a per-sample thing, but i stand by the assumption that something has changed.

It's still as prevalent as ever. Even when i load samples with pre-defined loop points, that loop seemlessly on the 2000XL, the 1000 still introduces clicks when its pitched up and down.

go figure.

even a very simple crossfade would take care of that pitch-click completely.
hopefully, someday.

sample loop crossfade would boost the machine's power as a SAMPLER as much as altloop did.

does it clip even if you play with the samples attack-decay-values?! Don't have a proper sample for testing it out atm...

(go to program, go to/hilight the level value for the sample, press window)

yeh it happens regardless of the AMP Envelope.

Has anyone tried looping samples in the akai os? does it work? if the sample loops perfectly in a wave editor without applying crossfade it should work in the 1k. the loop points are saved in the metadata of the wave. i really think this can be fixed.

I remeber the akai os presets having some looped samples and they worked flawlessly with the 16 levels tune.

when i load the samples the loop points are set at the exact same place as in peak.

peak=no alias
1k= random clicks that vary in volume level, always at the loop point. tried adjusting the loop point and it gets worse.

we need to be a little more proactive about getting this fixed.

has anyone investigated this thoroughly with jj?

This is frustrating because I have some awesome mellotron samples that were perfectly looped by hollow sun. they are some of my bread and butter programs. I have used them in other samplers without having to touch the loop points. the 1k is the first sampler that has ever given me any issues with them.

i still think it's working much better right now. i loop often and it was never as easy as it is now for me. this can't be me getting insane. IT CAN'T!!!

joshmikszan, do u still have those hollowsun samples. i used to but cant find the website no more.
