yo str8 up

yo str8 up, im not tryna be rude or anything but if u want that vinyl sound, you gots ta sample from vinyl, simple as that,

 

[J Cro]

there are a couple vst plugins you can use. one is ocptcode fusion:vinyl or something along those lines theres one other can think off hand. if tweaked right you can add vinyl sounds(ie crackling scratches(not wicca wicca, scratches like a scrach across the record) hum, hiss and so forth. if tweaked right and used sparinly it can take that piano loop or string section your programed and make it seem like it was sampled. all in all its a decent plug in.

Hey,

You can use a wave editor like Cool Edit to do this:

1. Load the sound you want to 'vinylize'.
2. Go to Edit>Convert sample type.
3. Choose mono, Left 50% Right 50%, hit ok.
4. Go to Effects>Filters and remove some of the low end, around 150hz, and remove some off the high end, around 15khz. Hit ok.
5. Go to Effects>Amplitude and choose Dynamics Processing.
6. Choose one of the presets and preview it, the goal is to find a preset which kills some of the dynamics of the audio you're working on to imitate the limited dynamic range of an over-played record.
7. Now that you have the file, save it and drop it into the multitrack.
8. Create a new file in the edit view and record a bunch of the silec parts at the beginnings ends of records (the turntable hum, crackles and pops are what we're interested in). Save them and drop them into the multitrack.
9. Go into the multitrack, loop duplicate your main audio file and delicately mix the different samples of the vinly files.
10. When you're satisfied, go to Edit>Mixdown and mix all the files together.

It's not perfect, but it's a darn site more convincing than just a simple vinyl plugin because you're replicating the acoustic qualities of vinyl, not just adding vinyl sounds.

Ok you wanna a vinyl sound?

Man..there are a million and one wav's out there that have a vinyl sound (the sound of the niddle running on a record.) All you gotta do is download one of those, and loop it!

Thats what I doo...

 

[J Cro]

every single thing you just stated to do in cool edit which would take you forever and a day to do. can be done with opcode fusion:vinyl. you want samples of it? check out some dan the automator records. he uses that plug in all the time. its one of his favorites according to an article/interview with him in computer music magazine. i have the article and will scan it if need be. no need to grow grey just adding some vinyl sound to a few bars of audio

 

[Briellz]

Hell yeah all the cut & paste shit will take forever!

Hey,

I checked out the Fusion:Vinyl plugin at Opcode's site:
http://www.opcode.com/products/fusion_vinyl/f_001.shtml#F_003

It does look very cool, it does everything mentioned for Cool Edit, like reducing bandwidth and squashing dynamics. Plus it can be run as a DX or VST effect.

Thanks for the heads up!

Isn't it funny, when producers were first samplig vinyls many moons ago they used to try to get RID of these clicks and pops by doing things like playing the records wet or covered in soap, nowadays we're doing the opposite by ripping cd's and running through dsp effects to ADD this noise!

[J Cro]

Lawtown, sounds like the famous quote from dawn of the dead!
"...when there's no more room in hell, the dead will walk the earth.". ...

 

[J Cro]

[Briellz]

LOL@PUG

 

[JP hardboiled]

[Some Guy]

This is the realest sounding vinyl plug I've heard. Off the hook.

[Some Guy]

[bigdmakintrax]

Fusion vinyl or like my man said if you have a digital multitrack, protools or cool edit just keep a track of nothing but vinyl sound, yeah if Ur lazy then you won't but it works just have vinyl track to add to the mix....and maybe resample your track to 12 bits or halve the frequency to 22k or in that range.....

 

[light]

how bout make your music then put it on vinal...

 

[mike kilo]

just sample from vinyl and maybe reduce the bitrate from 16 to
12 or so. it´ll definitely sound more vinyllike.....

 

[detox_one]

Just sample the silent part before a song begins from a vynil record.

 

[old supreme]

I read an Automator interview where he said he uses Fusion:Vinyl to make live studio recordings sound like he sampled them off vinyl.
