They also use multiple microphone positions for the samples.
That is how and why companies such as Spitfire Audio and Versilian manage to have viable businesses, making higher quality virtual instruments. That technique also works in other samplers, but many of the better ones nowadays use many samples, which introduce more 'tone' and variety into the sound. What is slightly unusual about LMMS is that that only requires one sample. I've only so far tried it with one instrument - a recorder. This is not so much a question looking for help, but a question relating to 'how' and 'why' - though as I type this I've thought of one of the 'how do I do something' variety - which might be useful to know the answer to.įirst - I found out how to create a 'new' instrument using the AudioFileProcessor.
