  • Page 42: Sampleedit

    Sound Edge Application Software SampleEdit You can use SampleEdit to read wave files, edit the waveforms, and play them as melodies. You can use the SampleEdit downloading feature to use wave data files recorded by other application software (such as WinDAT, or MIDI Orchestrator Plus that are included with Sound Edge) as tone generators for sequencers (such as the MIDI Orchestrator Plus) in the same way as the Sound Edge synthesizer (AWM/ FM).

  • Page 43: Waveform Editing Window

    Sound Edge Application Software Files Usable with SampleEdit You can use three types of files with SampleEdit: .WAV, .OPL, and .OMP. Of these three, .WAV and .OPL files can be read for waveform editing. After waveform editing, the files are saved as .OPL files.

  • Page 56 Sound Edge Application Software Reading Wave Files You can read wave files recorded by other application software and files of previously created material, and you can edit the waveforms. SampleEdit can handle the following three types of files, but only files that have the .WAV or .OPL file extension can be read and used for waveform editing.
  • Page 57 Sound Edge Application Software Editing in the Waveform Editing Window You can use SampleEdit to edit a waveform in the same way you would use word-processing software to edit a document: for example, you can use the commands [Copy], [Cut], or [Paste]. First you select the waveform area that you want to edit, then you execute various commands to affect that area.

  • Page 58: Editing Effects

    Sound Edge Application Software Editing Commands You can use the [Edit] pulldown menu to simply cut undesired parts from a waveform, or to insert some part into a different location. 1. To select the waveform area that you want to edit, drag the mouse pointer through the desired area.

  • Page 59: Zoom Function

    Sound Edge Application Software Zoom Function You can use the [Zoom] menu to magnify the waveform to make it easier to see, or to quickly display the entire waveform. 1. Select the waveform area that you want to magnify. To select the area, drag the mouse pointer through the desired area.
  • Page 60 Sound Edge Application Software Setting the Loop Point The loop function enables you to repeatedly play a part of a waveform between two points. You can use the loop function to produce sound as a musical instrument by continuously playing short wave data. You can set the start point at any desired location.
  • Page 61 Sound Edge Application Software The MIDI Soft Keyboard The MIDI soft keyboard simulates a MIDI keyboard controller. As with an ordinary MIDI keyboard, you need to set the MIDI send channels before using the MIDI soft keyboard. The MIDI soft keyboard is convenient because it enables you to easily play the keyboard in order to audition sounds (for example, when editing wave data) without connecting an external MIDI keyboard.
  • Page 62 Sound Edge Application Software Saving Wave Files After editing in the waveform editing window, you can save the file in the .OPL format. £Using SampleEdit, you can assign .OPL files to the program change numbers in the Mapping window, and download the wave files to the RAM, and use them for sequencer playback.
  • Page 63 Sound Edge Application Software Opening a .OMP File Downloading requires a .OMP file. You can make a new .OMP file or read an existing .OMP file. £The .OMP file consists of the listed .OPL files. So to make a .OMP file, first create various types of .OPL files in the waveform editing window, then save them on the hard disk beforehand.
  • Page 64 Sound Edge Application Software Assigning OPL Files to Patch Numbers In the Mapping window, you can assign up to 128 .OPL files to patch numbers as far as free RAM is available and download them. 1.
