hi everyone. this is something that has been
annoying me for sometime. is
it at all possible to use the samples from a copy of bfd in any sampling
software in linux? they are all wav format files, but each file contains
(from memory) 11 tracks, one for each microphone. the idea is that you
mix and pan each microphone after assembling the kit. i would prefer not
to have to mixdown each drum sample at each velocity (there are a LOT of
them) so if anyone knows of a sampler that can load (or import, i don't
mind building a sample bank) and play back multichannel wav files with
dynamic mixing and panning of each track i would much appreciate it :)
I don't think there are any samplers under Linux that can do that...
your best bet is to probably use the samples in Hydrogen... but you
won't get any of the fancy stuff BFD provides (although you can create
velocity layers in Hydrogen).
You could do it with SuperCollider; not a sampling software per se, but it can
read and play any number of channels in a file, you can dynamically pan and
mix them, and hook it all up to respond to midi or other control messages...
