Sound Design Video Tutorial: Sample Layering w/ S-LAYER from Twisted Tools

YouTube Published on Jul 12, 2012 by DubSpot

"More info: http://bit.ly/MnjPtG
In this video tutorial, Dubspot Instructor and Course Designer Matt Cellitti demonstrates some creative sample-layering techniques using a new Reaktor ensemble called S-Layer from Twisted Tools.

One of the best ways to come up with creative new sounds for your productions is to layer and tweak multiple samples together to form new combinations. However, this can sometimes turn into a tedious and time-consuming effort, depending on how you approach it. S-Layer, from Twisted Tools, is a new ensemble for Native Instruments' Reaktor that aims to make this entire process easier and more creative. Using just one instance of Reaktor, you can now layer up to eight samples and have instant control over all the necessary sampler parameters needed to really tweak each one of them. Better still, S-Layer has some amazing randomization options built in that will get you thinking outside the box as you twiddle the knobs looking for 'happy accidents.' I have never used such a quick and easy instrument to do creative sound design with sample layering.

This video will give you a brief overview of all the most important features of S-Layer, as well as some ideas about how to use it for sound design. - Matt Cellitti"

"I ran the unit in test mode, and it seems like voice chips number 1 and 3 is not working properly and would probably need replacing. Everything else should be working well to the best of my knowledge, all the keys and buttons and sliders, as well as preset memories and writing function working fine."
