Even if the sound does not clip (distort) when played back by the
VariOS's sound generator, there may be cases in which clipping
(distortion) is present in the exported sample. If this occurs, use
the mixer to lower the overall level, or lower the Master Level of
the effect.
If you use an effect of a type that varies cyclically, the sound will
be slightly different each time you play something back. In such
cases, the exported Wave file may sound different than what you
hear from the VariOS's sound generator. Also, the exported Wave
file may not perfectly match the sound you hear from the
VariOS's sound generator.
Export to SampleList
Owner’s Manual p.68, 91
An [Export to Sample List] command has been added to the File
menu. Also, an [Export to SampleList] button ( ) has been
added to the Vari Track screens.
Export to SampleList exports the selected frame to a single file (.vpw),
and automatically encodes it and sends it to the VariOS. The exported
file is registered in the Sample List.
1. Select a frame, and click the Export to SampleList button.
* This is not available during playback, or if no frame is selected in the
VariTrack.
2. The Save File dialog box will appear. Specify the name and
save destination for the file (.vpw) to be exported.
3. The data will be exported as a Wave file, encoded, and sent to
the VariOS itself. When this processing is completed, the
exported file will be registered in the Sample List.
Dry checkbox
If [Dry] is checked, the VariOS's internal effects will not be applied to
the Wave file that is exported.
fig
The Export to SampleList function automatically adjusts the gain
of the exported file so that the perceptual loudness will be the
same whether you play the corresponding frame, or export it to a
file and load the exported file back into the VariOS and play it.
This means that in cases where you are mixing multiple parts
(frames) to a single file, it is possible that the exported sample
may be distorted even if it does not distort when played back by
the VariOS sound generator. If this occurs, either use the mixer to
lower the level of each part, or use the [Load Wave Files] dialog
box to load the Wave file that was exported by the File menu
[Export Wave File] command into the VariOS.
If you use an effect of a type that varies cyclically, the sound will
be slightly different each time you play something back. In such
cases, the exported Wave file may sound different than what you
hear from the VariOS's sound generator. Also, the exported Wave
file may not perfectly match the sound you hear from the
VariOS's sound generator.
Wave Edit: Solo Encode Option
Owner’s Manual p.66
fig
A [Solo Enc Option] button has been added to the Edit mode in the
Wave Edit screen.
If you have selected Solo as the Encode Type, you can make detailed
encoding settings in the Solo Encode Option dialog box.
You will find that this option comes in handy if you experience
problems, such as noisy or distorted sound, when encoding in Solo
mode. In most cases, these problems are due to incorrect pitch
detection when encoding. In the Solo Encode Option dialog box you
can avoid pitch detection mistakes by specifying a frequency that is
as close as possible to the pitch of that waveform.
fig
Sample Type: Selects one of the following templates to specify the
lower and upper frequency limits.
• General (30--2000 Hz): This is the typical setting. If you are not
successful using this setting, try a different template.
• Bass (22--600 Hz): Setting for low-range sounds such as bass
• Tenor (60--1000 Hz): Setting for midrange sounds
• Alto (100--2000 Hz): Setting for upper-midrange sounds
• Soprano (200--3000 Hz): Setting for high-range sounds
Min Frequency: Specifies the lower frequency limit for pitch
detection.
Max Frequency: Specifies the upper frequency limit for pitch
detection.
* The best results will be obtained if you specify values that are close to the
waveform you are processing.
