Remaker was designed for all musicians, who wanna have more than ever the same TB-3o3 sounds in their tracks. Just like us…, So I created ReMaker. ReMaker converts Rebirtth RBS 2.0 songs into the Standard MIDI-1 Format (SMF) or vice versa!
Now you can play TB-3o3 sequences with your ‘real’ synthesizers or samplers!
(I tried some sequences with my Clavia NordLead and I can tell ya, it sounds like hell!!)
Of course, you can create also some shuffled and flamed MIDI drum patterns, played with your favorite drum samples or drum kit!
ReMaker is designed for ReBirth 2.0 songs only!
1.5 songs are ignored! If you wanna convert a 1.5 song, load with ReBirth 2.0 and save the song, after that you have a 2.0 song! (what else 😉 )
No problem! Now you can! Choose any instruments playing with your GM soundcard with the TB properties like ‘Slide’ and ‘Filter’! ReMaker uses for this functions CC (Continous Controllers) and the Pitchwheel! So you get the right TB sound feeling!
All the following knobs, sliders and functions will be converted:
| RBS to MIDI | |
|---|---|
| All TB Knobs | You can define the right controller for your synth! |
| TB Slide | You must have a General MIDI or GS compatible soundcard or module! 'Cause ReMaker switches with RPN the pitchwheel sensibility to +/- 24 semitones! Not working with FM synthesizers! |
| Emulated TB Filter EG (!) | Definitely the best part of ReMaker! ReMaker emulates with the TB settings 'EnvMod' and 'Decay' the Filter Envelope Generator (FEG)! Note: The MIDI files getting huge, if you enable this function! |
| Pannings | ReMaker uses CC 10. |
| Volume | ReMaker uses CC 7 and for the TR levels the velocity property. |
| TB/TR Accent | Will Pump up the volume! With velocity! |
| Shuffle | Yeah! This rocks! Let's swing... This function is supporting all machines! |
| TR-9o9 Flam | The 4 to 60ms delays and double strikes? No problem for ReMaker! |
| Load/Save of Options/Filter | Of course you can load and save all this options! You can create for every synths you have a *.REM file for later use! Share them with other users in the World Wide Web! Also send this files to me! THX! |
| MIDI to RBS |
|---|
|
Note: Be sure that:
Add some PCF and whatever yourself after the conversion! ReMaker isn't your cleaning mother! 😉 |
ReMaker and GM/GS isn’t supporting everything!
| No RBS to MIDI | |
|---|---|
| Delay | I really don't know, whether I should program this in the future! |
| Dist | Unfortunately not supported thru GM and GS! |
| PCF | Two filters? TB and PCF at the same time? Forget it!! |
| Compressor | Rocks only with 'real' audio stuff! |
| Tone / Tune / Decay / Snappy of both TRs | Sorry, but you can overdo things! |
| Pattern less then 16 steps! | No logic found! Read Fred's statement! "Well, there isn't much logic in that actually, it doesn't work quite like people seem to want it to. In pattern mode it sounds fine but in song mode it always becomes 16 steps anyway." |
Check out yourself the MIDI examples done with ReMaker and listen to the possibilities with your GM/GS soundcard!
