Guest fresqui Posted February 3, 2003 Share Posted February 3, 2003 im not shure...but it may sound different in the preview but not in the rendering.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Maak ku Paax Posted February 3, 2003 Share Posted February 3, 2003 It can be the equalization in your winamp that makes you think it just sounds better or... Change to a better sequencer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Faxanadu Posted February 4, 2003 Share Posted February 4, 2003 Nah man, no way that I can see it possible - at least not fruity vs. winamp...... check your audio buffer in fruity is all the way to the right and then check the sounds again....

Guest FAXANADU Posted February 4, 2003 Share Posted February 4, 2003 If you still detect diffrences then this post probably solvs it: Author: fresqui (---.prodigy.net.mx) Date: 02-03-03 19:56 im not shure...but it may sound different in the preview but not in the rendering....

Guest willo Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Faxanadu : yes it was the buffer that solved the problem thanks man =) 1. by the way how fast most the computer be so the buffer can go all to the right? 2. Does this buffer thing solve the quality in any program if the buffer si more or is it just fruity? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Faxanadu Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 I think you can always take it all the way to the right.... to clarify it: the buffer size is how big each chunk of information that is sent from your hard disk on to your memory is. The more memory you have the more you can play with these chunks. When you move the slide to the right-most side you are telling fruity to use the bigest chunks possible each time. That way (if you have enough ram) everything will flow well and be processed fast enough to sound well. On the other hand, when you are taking the buffer to the left you are telling fruity to use smaller chunks. This deters audio quality but brings down latency when recording notes or controllers from harware - beacuase the chunks are smaller they update faster and the controls are smoother. So - when you record automations with midi harware, or lay down notes or whatever, take your buffer as much to the left as you can before everything totally fucks up, and on playback and "normal" work take your buffer all the way to the right.... If you have a good soundcard with good drivers, a lot of ram and a fast cpu then you could achieve a good balance and have low latency and high audio quality at the same time If I'm getting anything wrong let me know Faxanadu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Faxanadu Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Oh, and that is just the way fruity handels buffers, diffrent programs do it diffrentlybut there is always this buffer just controlling it is diffrent and if u have a good card with a good asio driver you can try running your sound through asio and see if that gives you quality+low latency Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest willo Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Faxanadu: Thank you man, you were right about the quality.. its much better now when its in the right corner. but are you saying that i should put the buffer to the left when i rec, doesnt that make the quality worse?

Guest Faxanadu Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 No, because you are only recording instructiions - notes and controllers and not actual audio data. After recording you turn the buffer to the right and play back the sequence, those notes and controllers will give your synths the information and they will produce the audio, at the proper quality. Just try it and you'll see. Faxanadu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Psypher Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Alot of people thinks that Fruityloops is a program with bad audio quality! They make or take a good sample and put it into fruity and they feel it sounds bad and lo-fi! One reason for that is that if you have a sample that is normalized 100% it sounds strong and MEAN! ;-) But when you then import it into fruity it sets the volume to 75% so fruity avoids clipping! And they same sound can sound different and maybe lo-fi if its turned down because of the way human ears works! ;-) So if fruity should sound as your waveeditor or Winamp, you have to turned the channel volume all the way up and the fruity main volume all the way up!.....But pro musician know that of course! ;-)...... just a little comment to the question.....

Guest Faxanadu Posted February 7, 2003 Share Posted February 7, 2003 yah, and u can see this when you load a sample in a channel and look at the wave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
