In AudioFile Processor, or in all other plugins, how to change pitch or it's octave? I've added custom sound in AFP and it sounds too high-pitched[/i]
.
Most LMMS synths have a
PITCH knob (just to the right of VOL and PAN).
The PITCH values are measured in hundredths of a semitone.
By default, the
RANGE of the PITCH = 1 semitone and can go up to 24 semitones (12 semitones=1 octave).
You can also tune some synths via the plugin tab.
- For example, in the
Triple Oscillator, you can tune each of the three oscillators via the
CRS knob (from -24 to +24 semitones).
- The
FL knob (from -100 to +100 hundredths of a semitone) allows you to act on the left channel.
- The
FR knob allows you to act on the right channel.
In LMMS, you also have
effects that allow you to tune your synths.
So, via the FX tab of the synths or via FX CHAIN of the mixer, you can access the following effects:
-
AM pitchshifter
-
Higher Quality Pitch Scaler
-
Pitch Scaler
-
TAP Pitch Shifter
With
AudioFileProcessor, when you use the Piano-Roll, if you place a note on A4 (La4), you will hear the sample as it was recorded.
- For the example, let's say that the sample lasts 1 second.
- If you place a note an octave above, the sample will be played twice as fast, its duration will be 0.5 seconds, the pitch will be higher.
- If you place a note an octave below, the sample will be played twice as slowly, its duration will be 2 seconds, the pitch will be lower.
- The more you move away from the default pitch value, the better the quality of the sound will be degraded. This is especially "true" with lower pitch, and with bad quality sample.
Another way to play with the pictch is as follows. This is valid for all LMMS synths. When you open a synth, for example the TripleOscillator, you can see a keyboard (piano keys) at the bottom of its interface. By default, above the A4 note (La4), there is a
small square (
green in LMMS 1.1.3 or
gray in beta versions of LMMS 1.2).
- When you press the Y key on your keyboard, you play that note.
- Now, if you move this small green/gray square to the right, for example an octave above, when you press the Y key, you get an A3 (La3), a note one octave below.
- Similarly if you move this small green/gray square to the left, for example an octave below, and you press the Y key, you get an A5 (La5), a note one octave above.
- This is useful if you are using your AZERTY/QWERTY keyboard or any master keyboard.
