Hi I make drums mostly and for that I used Jeskola Buzz until I found Mad Tracker. There is one but tho. Is there any way to delay a sample - not delay/reverbish effect - but to start sample with a slight delay in ms? I need that for triol's and just to make my drums sound natural, and not just like a machinegun :] Greets

I don't know if there is a delay in milliseconds, but there is a delay in ticks. The FT2 command EDx does that, where x is the number of ticks the note is delayed. You can max have 32 ticks per line, so millisends per tick... Well that you calculate for yourself. Edit: Note that the tick value must be smaller than that of your song. For example, your song uses 6 ticks per line, you can max put ED5. That's how it was in FT2 anyways... Since the first tick is the start of the line.

------------------------------- 90 XXYY Set sync. offset If the sample is synchronized: X Got to beat X Y Offset in the beat (in Y/256: 0 = begin of the beat; 80 = middle of the beat; FF = nearly the end of the beat) Else: X Divide sample in X parts Y Go to division Y ------------------------------- OR... ------------------------------- 9D XXYY Set offset+delay X Offset (01 = 256 samples, 02 = 512 samples, etc.) Y Delays the note of Y ticks -------------------------------

Thx man

. That is exactly what I needed. But - even if you set 32 ticks, you have acces to 16 only (F), because command goes like this: 00 0EDx. Is there any way to acces all 32 ticks?

PS. I dont quite get 90 and 9D commands goose mentioned - I think they divide sample into parts, and start from selected one. Couldn't figure them out.

Edit: Is there any way to add specified command automatically when you add a beat to your song?

Sorry - I didn't post the explanation for some reason...

It helps to offset some hits a tiny bit to get a more natural sound, especially on rolls.

Plus you can add silence (one beats worth perhaps) to the begining of the sample and change the amount of silence with offset command - this means you move the hit around the beat. Plus you can easily include more of the attack of the drum sample this way.

Just ideas. Very Happy
