Adjusting Sound Eects
If you want to customize a sample or slice further, you can select it above the virtual keyboard
and use the controls on the Level panel to control the dynamics of audio playback, or you can
use the controls on the Filter panel to EQ the sound.
TIP: If a sample or slice is set to loop, you can press the Control key and click a key on
the virtual keyboard to initiate looping, so you can hear these adjustments as you’re
making them.
Playing and Recording Sound Eects
Once you’ve set up the Foley Sampler with sound effects you can play from a MIDI controller,
recording those sound effects is simple.
1 Make sure that the “Save clips to field” in the Capture and Playback panel of the Project
Settings is correctly set up to record to the desired storage volume, using the Browse
button, if necessary.
2 Click the R button in the track header of the audio track to which you applied the Foley
Sampler, to put that track into Record Enable mode.
3 Click the Record button in the Fairlight toolbar.
4 While Fairlight records, use the keys or buttons of your MIDI controller to play sounds in
sync to the picture on your display. When you’re done, click the Stop button.
You should now have a recorded clip containing the sound effects you played, in sync to the
picture. If they’re a bit out of sync, you can always use the Elastic Wave audio retiming controls
to tighten the sync without re-recording everything.
