Hi All
I have HS2004XL and I also have a Oxygen8 Midi Controller.
What I want to do is to record my voice and then play that back through the Midi Controller a la N N N N Nineteen.
Is this possible.
If it is, how do I do it?
I have been trying to find out for ages and I have just about given up.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Lee
 
You need a sampler.A sampler is either hardware or software that will replay "samples"(small recorded clips) via MIDI.

You could record clips,then copy and paste them in HS,but you couldn't trigger them.

Does HS have Cyclone in it?That will playback samples via midi controller.
 
Would a CME UF6 (midi controller) be able to trigger samples using cubase? If not in cubase, using any program? Does someone have a link which explains how to do this for a beginner? Basically, I'm looking at getting a uf6 with some soft synths and samples to lay down bass and drum tracks. Soft synths I kinda get, but samples (how to use them, not make them) I don't.

Edit: Oops, I replied to this using the search function and realized its kinda a cubase question in the cakewalk forum, but whatever, you guys seem to know this stuff well enough for me to leave it in this forum.

As AR stated, any sampler that is being triggered by a midi controler would be able to do it in Cubase. Record your sound, save it, play it back through your sampler inside your DAW host triggered by your midi controler. Dead simple.

Cakewalk's Sonar would be able to do it much better than Cubase though ;) :) :cool:
 
Wow, that is pretty easy. Thanks, I finally feel confident in knowing what I should be looking to buy.
 
I was explaining to my 78 year old Dad the art of sampling this last Christmas. So I recorded him saying "hello" in the microphone; saved it as a wav file; opened up Kontakt in sonar; loaded the Hello wav file and then triggered his recording on my midi controler. Of course, it automatically tracked his voice so that on playback, the pitch shifted according to what key was used to trigger the sample. It took 5 minutes to do, no more. He was amazed :)

It is as simple as that. ;)
