I recommend trackers as well. One advantage that trackers
have for this over other methods is that you don't have to
chop up your sample, you can just give offsets, which would
presumably be harder to do otherwise. Here's about ten or
twenty minutes' demonstrative work: (wouldn't have taken as
long if I wasn't an unskilled idiot)

blarh

When I use drumloops, I never cut them into bits - I only do
that if I want individual shots.
In the end, all it comes to is shifting stuff around,
repeating bits, playing with the pitch etc. until it sounds
neither boring nor out of sync with the rest of the track or
the listeners' expectations, which can be hard in faster
tracks. (the example above is in 212 bpm, and a lot of the
time spent on it was making sure it didn't sound wonky)

i cant download it at the moment but will later (if i had an
amiga).

what would you do if you had an amiga?
and what would you get? a 500, 600 or 1200??

i have a couple of 600's they are awesome.
maxed out to 2meg of ram : )

if you had an amiga i hope you would be running protracker
on it : )

has a great sample editor, i like it better than the sample
editor in FTII
but only has four channels.. 2 left & 2 right but that i 4
if you output as mono..
glorius 8-bit mono-tone.

The only track I have that uses the amen that is available
in some way is #7 [22:03] on Xltronic Vibes Vol. 2, and it
is kind of old (and dumb). Wouldn't consider it a "call"
track at all, either. I do all that stuff under a different
thing nowadays.
