Subject:overwrite function w/ regions
Posted by: dpfresh

I am trying to use the overwrite function to paste new data
over many many regions, I can't get Contol H to invoke the
overwrite function- is there a way to automate this
overwrite process, i.e. replacing each kick drum hit in an
audio track with a new kick drum sound of my choosing.

Thanks,
dpfresh

Wait a minute. Do I understand this completely. You have a complete
song opened in Sound Forge as a wave file and you want to replace
each kick in that file with another kick? If this is the case, I
think you have a problem. Since this song has already been mixed down
to one (stereo) wave file it's virtually impossible to change an
individual sample from there.

Best thing is to go back to the sequencer you made the song in (i.e.
ACID/Cubase) and change the kick there. Then resave as a wave file
and reopen in SF.

It is actually from a drum kits individual kick drum track and it is
a wacky experiment where I replace the kick drum hits on the
individual kick drum track with the sampled drum sound of my choice,
i.e. a roland 808. You get a real drummers time with an 808 vibe. I
can do it manually but was just wondering if there is a way it can be
automated.

Ok, I think I understand. Can't help ya though since I've never
worked with SF like that. Sorry... :(
