DSF Sample Contest 48 (Winner: MARSEN)

if you’re still using reaper you can do this with reasamplomatic

just load audio there, zoom in and adjust the start/end sample sliders so the sample start and end are a single waveform looking kinda like this:

Shit, yeah 100% get it! I thought that’s what you meant, I know how to do that, I’ve been making granular textures for a techno track doing this exact thing. I just didn’t know that what I was doing.

For real right? I’m bringing the grenade launcher

I haven’t made an entire tune in a Reaper in almost 10 years - this was a refresher course and reminder of what I do ok and what I totally suck at lol. But really appreciate the love anyway - just one person saying how much they dig it makes it all worthwhile for real.

As for the format of next one, the poll is a dead tie so i say if a clear consensus can’t be reached just do whatever you want @MARSEN, just get it going quick so we don’t lose momentum and wait another 2 years for next one…

I’m not back home till the 18th of next month but I’m happy to do it when I get back. If it’s too long to wait you guys can feel free to do somethin without me in the meantime

Sry for doublepost, just realized with all thats going on atm I never actually said thanks for the love guys! Really appreciate that y’all liked it, excited to see what we do with the next one :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

So yeah…

The part I mentioned earlier about losing momentum: not beefing, but the tradition (winner makes next pack) is kinda a big part of that…

So unless you’re asking us to wait for you why not just pick a sound - any sound - and send us on our merry way?

I know it sounds trifling but just really vibe off these comps like nothing else.

I’ll join in the next one. Also big up MARSEN

Totally, not that I dont want to, I just dont have access to my computer or anything till I get back. If you want I can just pick something if someone can handle the rest of the logistics. Don’t mean to cramp the vibes at all just really can’t do much right now.
Seems like there was more votes for a small multi pack on that poll, if you guys are into that idea of everyone submitting a sample each (say, everyone who submitted to this challenge, me aside?) Bonus cool points if they’re weird and nonmusical. That would give a pretty limited palette to keep the stakes up. Only offered for you guys to go without me cause I dont wanna hold y’all up if you wanna get on with it. I’m cool with anything

Or if you wanna take a rain check I’m still down to do one when I get home

Each contestant submitting a sample seems fair.
