Repeated pattern like an echo

I’m getting an echo on every sound I choose. It repeats the pitch at regular intervals, then fades. Can anyone point me to the solution? I’m new to Pigments and don’t have much background (FYI) so simple explanations are the best.

Thanks!

HI @sillyfool312

Can you be a bit more specific about how you’re going about this please?
It does sound like typical ‘double triggering’.
Are you running the standalone version or plugin, and if the plugin, which version and which DAW?
How are you triggering Pigments, via midi controller?

Also, what interface and buffer/sample rate settings are you using?

This should help us track your issue down a lot easier.

HTH!

So it’s not doing it now, no idea why. BUT let me give you the info I have so that I might learn how to fix it next time.

It was double triggering when I was using it as a plugin with Garage Band.

I’m triggering it with a Novation Launchkey 37.

Can you explain (or direct me to) where I can learn about the interface (?) and sample rate? I have no idea where to look for either of them.

Thank you!

HI again @sillyfool312

Good to hear your issue has ‘resolved itself’.

As you’re using garage band it’s safe to assume you’re on a Mac and most likely its onboard sound?
Most people will use an external device, if they’re doing fairly ‘serious’ music production, to handle audio and, often, midi tasks into and out of the computer.
I would just hit youtube and other sources online by searching for terms like ‘what is an audio interface’ what is Midi and how does it work’ etc…
It’s such a wide ranging topic, in fact it’s actually many topics that are often conflated into one.
It would also be worth reading up on Digital Audio too if you’re unsure of things like sample rate as there’s just too much there to discuss in one post.

HTH!
