What is resampling and how do we do it in REAPER? These questions answered and more in this video.

 

What is reasampling?
It is essentially taking the output of one track and recording to another, usually for the purpose of further sonic manipulation in a sampler that wouldn’t be possible without committing to new files.

Routing in reaper
3 tracks are needed
One for sound source (a synth with fx), one for recording the sound in realtime, and one for a sampler (ReaSamplomatic5000).
Track 1 (source) sends to track 2 at unity gain. Track one master send is disabled.
Track to is set to Record Mode: Output Stereo
After recording the interesting sounds are imported into ReaSamplomatic using the “Import from arrange” button or CMD-Option / CTRL-ALT – Drag into the plugin.

In ReaSamplomatic5k we can further process the sound with pitch bend, pitch offset, looping, playing chords and trying different resample (the other kind 😉 ) modes for better or worse quality sound when stretching.

    Great Tut Jon, many thanks for the effort !
    The Resampling option in RS5000 was new to me, never noticed that.

    Abit of a shame that RS5000 can only load 1 sample, there is no keymapping for using more than 1 sample.
    Maybe in a future update, who knows .. :0).

    How do I get my reaper to look like yours? By that I mean the same screen layout as you have in the video?

    Once i have resampled made a cut that loops perfectly. e.g a (synth sound that when looped, seamlessy goes round and round). HOw to i cut that perfect loop out of the sample that is in the sampler or export that edited version straight from the sampler.

      Hi Joseph
      It might be best to do it in the arrange view like I showed in the seamless loops video.
