I just received a question on how to pitch your samples so you can play them at different tunning across your keyboard or pad controller in Battery 4.
This is just a really quick video in response. It’s really simple to do. Of course if you have any more questions just let me know.
How do you know what key that sample is so it will be on the correct key on the keyboard
this is just for midi triggering, not the actual key/tune of the sample, you can put it wherever you want. It will already be on a specific key by default when you drop it in, which will show in the keyrange box.
I would prefer it on the correct note because i don’t play by ear. So how could i find out what note/tone that bass boom or whatever sample i use so it will be correct on the keyboard
Well if you’re talking about tuning samples to the proper note then use a tuner software, guitar rig can do it for example.
Hey fam,
Could you possibly do a tutorial video on that using guitar rig?

thanks for checking fam!
SJ – Thanks for this tip. Very useful.
Thanks fam, glad you liked it!
I’ve been looking everywhere on how to do this. Could you please show me how to do this on Battery 3?
I do not have Battery 3 installed, it should be a similar process though.
I can upload it to Youtube. Pretty sure its an 808 or 909 snare with a low pitch shift played on the lower keys
Hey Saint Joe, I have a sample I believe I did in Battery or Absynth years ago and I forget how I did it.
If I post a sample, do you think you could maybe point me in the right direction on a sound to start with? I believe I used a Snare Drum and used a lower key so it pitched it very low. Thanks
I doubt it, too many sounds out there to be able to identify a singe sample lol
How do I pitch a sample in Battery 4 so it pitches UP and DOWN the keyboard? Maybe having the sample on C3? That way it pitches evenly up and down to C0 -C5?
Not sure, I never tried that.
Damn, do you think its possible to do?
Should work if you set the notes as needed.
