WhiteNoise's Drummer
version 1.0

What is it ?

This machine is specifically made to handle drum sounds (so it's a drum tracker really). You can't specify a note, just trigger the sounds, and it's supposed to be limited to one wave per traack (you could concievably change waves in a track, but that would defeat the purpose of using this machine). Other features in this drum machine - You can set an offset in the wave so the sounds start at a different spot. This gives the sound a slightly different attack, and thus a different tone. You can use this to add some realism and variation to your drums instead of having them sound totally the same the whole time. Also you can control the rate which the samples are played. This is essentially the same as changing the note if you were playing a sample in the tracker, but this gives you better control, the rate is glided, plus, you can play samples backwards! This meachine features ramping for when samples start, so you shouldn't get any clicks. There are some odd problems with it - if a sound doesn't play, usually the fix is to set the 'offset' to something (experiment). One other thing of note - when setting a negative rate, the offset is handled as from the end of the wave, rather than the begining. If you have a lot of extra space on the end of the wave, you might not hear anything. Use the offset to account for that.

Thanks to Rout, since I stole his html for this page. ;)
