Sample loop start has click/pop noises

Hey Guys,

I am having clicking noise every time loop starts from the beginning.

This happens when I record sample with loop mode. I am sampling analog synth and sometimes I need to start sample recording when synth is already playing. So when I loop this there is this clicking sound in every beginning of the loop.

Please kindly let me know is this because I am doing something wrong? I can't imagine that it should be this way.

 

This can happen in loop mode, cause sampling starts on grid but maybe your synth has an output and then you can get some rectangularish waveform, this creates a click. You need some smoothing with a fade in, maschine samer offers this for loop playback mode and it's called X-fade. You can also open the waveform in an editor like audacity and make a short fade in, really just a few milliseconds. If you use sampler module for playback instead of audio module you can also use attack on the amp envelope.

Thanks Uwe,

This is helpful already, at least i know, there is nothing wring with my Maschine MK3 )

Could you be so kind to help me on how to set up X-Fade on MK3 sampler? Because in the sampler itself I know all options and there is no x-fade.

Because fading in each and every sample would be super time consuming, would be great to have this fade in/smoothing function somehow automatically.

Thanks in advance,

 

Ohhhh o checked and discovered that you have a envelope in the zone tab. Where loop with xfade is also located. So just apply some attack there. I have maschine some years but sometimes even now I discover stuff I somehow oversaw all the years .
