Subject: the portishead track "mystrieons" snare rolls
Original Message Date: 12-Jun-00 @ 12:58 PM - the portishead track
I recently got in to producing some kind of downbeat/trip-hop music.
The song I am currently working on is needing some of the military march type snare rolls that can be found on the portishead song "mysterions". I have tried to recreate the beat but it only sounds stiff and wrong. The snare rolls get to static and it sounds more like 10 snares playing very fast then one snare roll. I usually dont have any problems doing the beats I want but this one just sounds wrong. Please help me.

A lot of DnB and trip-hop, and bigbeat use Recycled drum loops. They are loops sliced into individual hits within Recycle, a Steinberg product.The groove and feel as well as tempo can be shifted. This gives the drums a strange unnatural sound that can't be created with a straight loop or individual hit strung togethter with a sequencer. The reason is because the ghost of one hit may be carried over to another and when the loop is stretched or shortend these artifacts change the sound of the loop because of gaps or overlaps respectivly. recycle CD roms are cheap and full of good patterns of all styles. Also REX files work in Cubase flawlesly, but to create your own you would need to buy Recycle.Recycle also supports many samplers and will generate a preset for the sampler, and a midi file for the sequencer to play the file back.
