Many thanks Robert!

Indeed very playable.T. Jervell wrote:Thank you Batchas! Yes I’m very happy with my system. Love the sounds and how «playable» it is. The Radio Music is a nice addition bringing in both the potential for percussive sounds, but also longer samples.
Thank you pustule!!!pustule wrote:really awesome Batchas! Any chance you'll ever make any in Buchla format?
I guess Batchas will chime in, but yes you can use the RM as a one-shot sample player. A few changes in the code will however also open up for playing samples as loops etc. And you’ve got control over pitch etc.syncretism wrote:Any other RM users, here? I'd love to hear some more feedback.
I'm told the RM has a few different behaviors, depending on the firmware installed. Is the 3.1/3.2 version here essentially "one-shot" samples? A "trig" in suggests that there's no sustain and it likely doesn't read loop points. This is all well and good; I'm interested in it more as a one-shot thing, and the .ini-style directives suit me just fine. I'm looking for ways to bring my location recordings into the modular while freeing up those BugBrand dual amplifier channels for other uses.
I've been using mine to get field recordings into the modular frame - works well, although as you have to raise the sample's volume to compete with modular levels, it works best with stuff that doesn't have a high noise floor that you can boost before loading on the SD card (unless of course you're not super concerned about hi fidelity!).syncretism wrote:Any other RM users, here?

I'm actually finding this a bit of a quandary - I think if you're using the RM for short, percussive samples, you can squeeze them right up to -1 dbfs (which I think was Tom Whitwell's original advice regarding normalization) and they'll sound alright, but with longer, more intricate stuff, this can compromise their quality. I also have a problem that my main device for field recording only records in stereo, and I then have to render clips as mono to play them on the RM, which can also not always sound good.syncretism wrote:Thanks for this. Another question for y’all: if you’re normalizing samples for modular use, what’s a good target loudness, in your experience?
