leated key command or a double-click on the WavePlayer
track.
The Structure of the WavePlayer
In the WavePlayer window you see the note range from
A0 to C6. You can assign a separate WAV-file to each of
these 64 notes. Each WAV-file sound can be shaped via an
independent synthesizer-like sound shaping section con-
sisting of a VCF with an envelope and a VCA with an en-
velope.
In addition, each WAV-file can span a note range than
greater than one note and thus be played polyphonically
just like on a real sampler. Furthermore you can adjust the
synthesizer-parameters for multiple WAV-files simulta-
neously.
Finally, the output of the WavePlayer can be adjusted in
level and balance. Unlike the previously mentioned set-
tings, level and balance are not set in the WavePlayer win-
dow, but in the Mixer and/or the Track parameter box.
Assigning WAV-files
A click on the File Name field opens a file selector box in
which you can select and load a WAV-file. This WAV-file
gets assigned to the key belonging to the File Name field
you clicked on.
A right-click on an already assigned File Name field erases
that WAV-file from the WavePlayer keyboard assignment.
Adjusting the keyboard range: Right beside the File
Name field you find the settings of the assigned WAV-file,
arranged on a grey crossbeam. The upper and lower edges
of this crossbeam can be grabbed and moved with the
mouse to define the keyboard range of a WAV-file. Please
note that while a WAV-file can be transposed down as far
as you wish, its upward transposition is limited to an oc-
tave. This applies if the upward transposition is achieved
by playing the keyboard, using the Tune parameter or a
combination of both of them.
The parameters of a WAV-file in the WavePlayer
Each WAV-file in the WavePlayer has its own parameter
set. The View menu allows you to decide which para-
meters you wish to see.
Tune: The pitch of a WAV-file is adjusted in cent (1 cent =
1/100 semitone). The adjustable range is ±1.200 cents (that
equals ± 1 octave).
Start and Length: Adjusts the point in the WAV-file
from which it gets played back when pressing a key (Start)
