Re:MDUW granular synthesis endeavour 11 Years, 6 Months ago
Forgive me if I am being dense here, but I still have some basic questions about this MD granulaire effect:

I can follow the posted setup easily enough, but what I don't understand is the use of a Ram Play machine. What exactly are we sampling? Don't you need a Ram Rec machine going in order to feed the buffer of a Ram Play machine?

Are we copying a ROM sample over to a RAM Play? Is that even possible?

Or is this a "just throw some shit into a Ram Play machine and use that" kind of deal...?

I'm simply needing to know these supposed steps that set up the audio source before the steps that are given in the exercise.

Can someone please help?

Thanks!

It depends on whether you want to perform granulation on an incoming signal (you must use RAM Rec/Play pairs), or on a prerecorded sample (you then use the ROM machines). Of course you can use both RAM Rec/Play and ROM machines simultaneously, to create a more complex sounding texture.

Just to be sure:

You need to RAM play some filled buffer, indeed. For that matters you can use a RAM Rec machine.
Of course, you can also do so with a ROM machine.
