Snares an Hats On My MPC 1000 starts flanging. any help

for no reason it jus flanges theres nothing in the manual that helps.

Turn off flanger efx

check if u didn't layered same snares without quantisation coz samples like to flange when they are moved in phase..

i didnt put any efx on but yh i have a feeling its layering but... how do i check if i layered it. lol at my newb question. its a bit tricky coming from reason to the mp.

MODE+PAD7 and change program from poly to mono.
Now if u don't hear any flangin it means that it's layering issue...
Record wid quantize next time.
PZ

even with quantize there will be flanging... IF you recorded the same event on 2 different tracks maybe... did you re-record your snare while on the hihat track using the same program? its been known to happen.

the mpc is not sample accurate so even if 2 events are supposed to happen on the same tick they will be triggered sequentially. furthermore, the distance between the instances will not be the same every time there is an overlap, giving a flanged effect that sounds different in each instance.

oh BTW there is your 'special swing', gentlemen!

do an experiment yall: record a sequence using the same sample on 2 tracks, both triggered on the 1:1:0... now add a 3rd track, a 4th, and so on. and then report back to me. you will only get up to 32 but im curious if that would be a tight grouping. if it was sample accurate, you would just hear the sample get louder, without flange. if not, you should have a complete mess by the time you add the 32nd track.

Lol, we all know it's a mess... at least the heavy MPC users. I'll probably do this test at some point though, just to see how funny it sounds in an extreme scenario.

SIMULT SEQ could be causing this as well. i use SS all the time for it's flanging effect! love those exploitable timing imperfections.

double check u aint got the same sample on more than one layer, in the program editor.

this has happened to me sometimes.

and i dont layer the snares, but usually i do keep the drum program in poly. thats probly why.

it hasn't happen in a while though.

I'd delete the snare from the pattern and re-record it or just enter it in grid edit and check if the problem still exists.
