I’m looking for a way to pitchbend/modulate samples in real time. Ideally a plugin or VST that can be loaded from within renoise to play around with samples whilst a track is playing in the background.
My Atari ST had a program called MIDIplay that could load up a group of samples, map them to different notes on the keyboard and mess about with them in. It was a great tool for PAs. Is there something similar to this available for the PC.
You mean timestretching or you want to control internal samples with your pitchbend wheel?
For option two there are a few options, like ShortCircuit VST sampler.
It is a good sampler when you work with loose wave samples but it has a lousy loop-handler for soundfont libraries.
Or i might have missed an update where this has been fixed recently.
