Firstly hello to all six of you, but also many thanks to Guillaume for = providing this little gem which is helping me move up the tabla playing = scale from miserably awful to just bad. I've noted the comments about the possibilities of adding things (like = tunings, meends etc), and I'm trying to follow the technicalities of it, = but while I do that, I thought it might be an idea to offer a couple of = things. I've got a few samples of my own instruments, some of which = sound OK, but others need working on. The sarangi is pretty horrible, = but then so are most bowed instruments via samples. I've just done a = quick check with a scale using pitch bends and a sitar sample, and = again, some need polishing up, others need scrapping and so on, but over = all they seem quite nice. Would some of the results of this be of interest to anyone? I hope that there are more than five other users out there - there = certainly deserves to be! Yours Tony |

Hi Tony, Yes it would be a good idea if you can provide more instruments. I already got harmonium and new tabla samples by Shawn Mativetsky, I have yet to include them in TaalPulse (I don't have much time right now), so if you like you can make the samples available somewhere and I'll include them asap!

Hi Guillaume, Hope you had a good holiday. Did you pick up the revised samples - if so I'll clear them off the miserably small page Orange gives me. Do you see any improvement, or any improvement possible?

Hi Tony yes I downloaded all the samples you can remove them from your site now, thanks a lot for providing them! Unfortunately I have not had time yet to include them into TaalPulse, and as things are going I will not have time to do that in March either... sorry about that. I'll keep you informed as soon as I make some progress. Cheers g On Sat, Mar 1, 2008 at 7:34 AM, Tony Chalkley <ant...@wa...> wrote: > Hi Guillaume, > > Hope you had a good holiday.

Hello team, Yes I think Sarangi would be much appreciated by people worldwide; I often get enquiries for lehara for that instrument, based upon the one movie clip on my site. I have a sample of Ustand Sultan khan playing a drut tintal lehara , which I looped for my demo movie, but I am not sure that this would be approved by the record company...!

Right. I've done a few new samples and am now processing them. Unfortunately I picked up considerably more noise than I was expecting. The sarangi is the least satisfactory, but seems happiest if I only use the open C, G and C1 on the top string - I haven't tried them over a drone yet, which should calm it all down. I've also done a sitar, and two Chinese vertical flutes (one of them is like a shakuhachi in appearance). I may redo my sheng. They should be available by the end of the weekend - with luck.

I've just uploaded a test recording using the Madhuvanti lehra so you can give me comments and suggestions before I send the straight samples. The order is 1) Chinese Tung Xiao (Shakuhachi-style) cardioid ORTF (forgot to press record for the omni ;-( ) 2) Sitar omni 3) Chinese Tung Xiao (plain style) omni 4) Sarangi cardioid ORTF (omni was horrible and I didn't have time to improve) 5) Chinese Sheng omni I can hear a bit of traffic on the sitar, and the sarangi is "best so far" - it's a bit squeaky, but then they are, aren't they. No added reverb has been applied. The samples were stereo, but when I turned them into soundfonts, they looked mono. The output from Timidity is stereo, but it looks as if there is simply a bit of L/R delay. Don't bother trying to recreate samples, as once things are neater I'll upload them anyway. If I have time, I'll try and produce something with pitchbends/meends in the next few days.

Hey Tony that's really cool! I particularly the Tung Xiao ones. Regarding the sarangi, some of the notes sound good (the sharp ones it seems) and other not so good, do you think it is possible to improve? When you make the final samples, can you create them in aiff format with the sustain looping information? I could do that myself if you can but my loops do not usually sound really good...

Yup, Guillaume, I was going to ask if you wanted aiff format for the final versions - I'm pretty sure there's something on this machine that will do that. As for looping, I haven't added any. Most of the samples are over 2 seconds long, and that should be enough for most things. I'll have a go (except with the sitar, for obvious reasons) if you like. I'll keep working on the sarangi - I think I basically need a good open C on the main playing string, but it is a horribly temperamental thing. The quality of the G string is so different that if the lehra goes below open C, the result is disturbing rather than helpful, and I'd prefer not to talk about the noise the bottom C string normally makes. I'll also try it over a drone. I'm not sure I'll be setting up the recording kit again before the end of next week, though. I noticed that you've got a full arpeggio CEGC for your samples - is this necessary, or will your programme adapt to fewer (or different) notes? For example the flutes are DF#AD, and the sheng AEC#A, and as I've said, getting four good samples out of the sarangi in one sitting is not proving easy!

The reason I prefer looped samples is that they can use much less space (for instance the melodica samples I have occupy 320kb in total for the 4 of them). And the reason I prefer to use less space is that I use to run TaalPulse on a PDA... but I guess it would be possible to make two versions, one with the longer samples and one with smaller ones. Anyway, I think long samples should also be looped.

I tried a bit of looping yesterday evening - not totally horrible, but not totally nice either. The problem is the decay - if you look at the wave forms, there is a lot of up and down, so a clean loop is difficult to place. On the sitar, there is just down, so you inevitably loop back to a louder part. It's quite different from the melodica, where the wave form presents itself as a nice clean rectangle.

Have a good holiday! When you get back, you'll find shortened aif files with loops here:- http://pagesperso-orange.fr/tony.c/AIFloop.zip full length aifs here http://pagesperso-orange.fr/tony.c/AIFfullstereo.zip and the madhuvanti redone with loops here http://pagesperso-orange.fr/tony.c/madhuvantifive.zip I haven't had time to redo the Sarangi from scratch, but I've chopped the front off the files to give more attack, and it doesn't sound much worse than when I try to play it. As for the loops, they beat a bit, but I don't think I can do much better. I think looping best suits synthesized sounds that don't have such peculiar wave forms. Anyone wanting to play with these is most welcome. I suppose I have copyright, but it is hereby waived :-) sorry about the pun. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Guillaume Pothier" <gpo...@gm...> To: <taa...@li...> Sent: Saturday, February 02, 2008 1:35 AM Subject: Re: [Taalpulse-user] Expanding the options Okay!
