Creating Patches from User Samples in Thumbjam

[Deleted User][Deleted User]
in General App Discussion

Guys, I apologize if this has been asked before, but couldn't find any info.
I really want to create my own Saxophone sample, but not just one sample but a multisample, is this possible?

Would love to have a step by step, sample for idiots guide if any to create this in Thumbjam. Reason, i chose Thumbjam it's because it is rock solid in the midi dept. And hardly ever has locked up on me. Actually never.

Thanks in advance for any help.

    Thanks will check it out. I was playing Thumbjam's Tenor Sax and it actually sounded really nice. Would love to get a good Alto Sax sample and create my own patches in there.

    Fretless Sax and use Thumbjam as a MIDI controller?

    Just reporting that I successfully made my first custom ThumbJam instrument, sampling Animoog. Thanks to this thread and the YouTube video for giving me some motivation ;-)

    I actually found it rather fiddly to try to make the notes sustain, so I turned that off. It took me a really long time but fairly happy with the sound I've got

    What was most of the 'long time' part?

    Most of it went as expected. It was helpful that I labeled the files properly so they were automatically assigned to the right notes inside ThumbJam.

    What took me especially long was figuring out how to import the .wav files internal to iOS (coming from AudioShare). Zip file import into ThumbJam is actually pretty simple, so it was more user error than actually any problem in the process.

    Then once I had the sample set imported it just took some fiddling to get the best sound...

    turning off reverb, remembering to save patch,

    hearing weird artifacts then remembering Animoog is still open and responding to ThumbJam MIDI data...

    trying to make the "looped" setting work, then giving up on it...

    Anyway, next time I think it will go a lot quicker. I think I may be on to something good.

    This is OT, but wouldn't it be cool if you could import sf2 and/or sfz into Thumbjam?

    Somewhat related to your unrelated question: I think TJ may work with Logic or MainStage sample sets, haven't really tried that yet

    sf2 can be very misleading if the soundfont has been optimized on it's source system
    I remember a 'great' piano patch from those soundblaster days, that turned stale because the import completely ignored filters and envelopes ;)

    I wish it would read sound fonts
