Loop points?

Hi ya,

In need of some assistance, I am trying to make my own multisampled piano for the g. I have tried the walgraphix pianos which are beautiful but.......when playing live in my band they just don't cut through the mix and no amount of messing with them has achieved this which led me to doing the last 2 gigs with the g and my old Yamaha p60 stage piano for the piano bits and getting very worried about the weight of the 2 on my stnad. As long in the tooth as the P60 is (and yes it's mono) it's sound beats anything that the g has and cuts through beautifully live. So I came up with the idea of multisampling the P60 into the fantom. So far it's sounding good, got a 99.9% reproduction of the p60's main piano however. When holding the sustain you hear the samples dropping out and then the addition of blank hiss along with whatever else your playing. I presume I need to set loop points but Don't know where to start as I'm new to this malarkey and quite frankly am amazed I've got this far anyway. Any help will be greatly appreciated

Cheers

Jools

Ignore me people, fantom newbie error, figured out what was causing it, it's the background noise becoming louder after each sample starts to fade. Oh well 100 samples to run through some denoising software.

Hi ya,

Very well thanks, my G8 now has my old Yamaha p60 multisampled into it over 4 velocity layers. It works a treat sounds miles better than any of the G's piano patches and cuts into the mix live really well. Just had to remove the background hiss from each sample I took, luckily found some software which did the lot in one go. I dont use any other piano sound now. Only way to go one better would be to use a better digital piano as my p60 is over a decade old now, but unfortunately dont have access to one to try. Saying that for now I'm happy with it.
