Looping horn trouble

[William Brillinger]

try to find 1 complete cycle of the loop and then trim the sound to the " zero crossings"

I find the best loop I can using the repeat play option and move the selected section out until it sounds good.
Then I make a fade from the segments before and after the section I looped so it meshes naturally.

Yeah I’m done  trying to get this to smooth out if you want to give it a crack let me know where to send the files to I have two of them a K5LA and Nathan p3  they sound amazing to me I just can’t get them to make a good loop.

Not an easy task, is it? Gives you a renewed appreciation for why it is taking Ring so long to roll-out new sound files and why he is so picky about what recordings he accepts. The devil is always in the details.

 I’m hoping maybe Bill can help me out the single sound files are really good just got to get Them to better.

[William Brillinger]

John, you can email them to me or upload them somewhere I can get at them to download and I'll take a look!

hi bill here is the k5la horn in the files section for you to take a look at, ill post the Nathan p3 tomorrow
thanks again John

[William Brillinger]

John,

Did you "make" this sound, or is it a recording of a real horn?

Ideally the sample should be longer and I think there may be a 'pop' in the middle of the recording which is why it's not looping nicely. If you created this digitally, can you make a longer version?

[Pizzapizza]

no its a real horn I just added reverb and eq to it , that's the length of it, I can rerecord it but that's the longest it will go sorry

[William Brillinger]

OK, I'll look at it again after you post the other one.

[Pizzapizza]

hi Bill the first one is a remake of the one I sent , the 2nd is a new one I created, both are k5las
thanks John Good luck I will post a leslie s3l too
