Re: [elektron] sample "clicking" in rom machines

2006-08-13 by Tarekith

Yeah, I got this too.  I'm pretty sure it's the result of a new "note"
cutting off the previous note's sample at a non-zero crossing point.
Not much you can do about it except play with all of the notes lengths
to make sure new notes don't cut off old ones.

Too bad there's no way to automatically apply a 4-5ms fade in and out
too all samples.  At least fade out.
