Recommended sample level?

Post by gutbag »

Hi,

I am creating my own TJ instrument from guitar samples I've recorded. But I'm finding that I get distortion when I play lots of them at once (I need to be able to do this, I won't bore you with the reason). I presume I've got the levels a bit high in my samples. I don't get distortion from the harp instrument, so I tried to see what sorts of levels it uses, but got stuck at the ESF obfuscated file format. Can anyone advise?

FYI, my samples are currently 24-bit, mono, 44.1k 'normalised' by Logic on a Mac.

Thanks...
