Take a sampled sound of a shaker "shhhkk-shh". This sample was recorded at a particular tempo, let's say 144. The "shhhkk-shh" will work fine for a song with that or near 144 bpm. Now take it to a song that is 100 bpm. The "shhhkk-shh" will be too fast because the "-shh" comes too quickly on the downbeat.
Hmmm, that's another good point. Not quite the same but related and just as important nonetheless. This could open a can of worms though; how many parts would one want to configure in a sound? I wonder in how many cases this would be a practical concern that would not be better mitigated by simply devising and using two distinct samples ("shaker start", "shaker end"). -ben -- Ben Kennedy, chief magician zygoat creative technical services 613-228-3392 | 1-866-466-4628 http://www.zygoat.ca
