How to stretch a sample...


Recommended Posts

Hopefully I'm using the right terminology when I explain the problem: I have these 5kb samples (it's for a contest) and some of them sound like melodic bits of a synth or somethin. The problem is, they play for like half a second. How do I go about stretching the sample so it plays as long as I hold the key? Sorry for bein such a nub, I've been playin with the envelopes and shit but I can't seem to figure it out -_-.

it's gonna depend on the actual sample, but the general idea is to paste part of the sample back to back (thus looping a portion of it and extending its length) with a bit of overlap and crossfade the overlapped region. obviously if it contains any kind of attack or release you want to loop the middle sustained portion of the sample
