Using the Librarian
4. Press Open to select the current directory and save the files.
Exporting as a bundle
To export multiple pieces of data from the modwave to your computer as a bundle:
1. In the Main Window, select the data that you'd like to export.
2. In the File menu, select the Export Bundle... command.
3. Navigate to the location to save the bundle, and enter a name for the file.
4. Press Save to save the bundle file.
Exporting all user data
To export all of your custom data as a single bundle file, without saving the write-protected factory sounds:
1. In the menu, select the Export Bundle of All User Sounds... command.
2. Navigate to the location to save the bundle, and enter a name for the file.
3. Press Save to save the bundle file.
This exports a bundle of all non-write-protected data, for backing up or transferring all of your custom sounds at once.
Importing and exporting Set Lists
Set Lists refer to up to 64 Performances. When you export a Set List, both the Set List and its referenced Performances
are saved together. This makes it easy to transfer groups of sounds between two or more modwaves.

Importing Wavetables
You can import Wavetables in two standard formats. Both formats are specially-prepared .wav files, which contain
up to 64 individual waveforms laid out end-to-end, one immediately after the other. Each of the waveforms must be
exactly the same length. The two supported formats are:
• 32-bit floating point data, with waveforms exactly 2048 samples long (commonly used by software synthesizers,
such as Serum)
• 16-bit linear data, with waveforms exactly 256 samples long (commonly used by modular synth hardware)
The main difference between the two formats is that 2048-sample waveforms allow three more octaves of high
harmonics. In practice, this means that bass notes can be brighter in timbre.
Important: .wav files must be in one of the two supported wavetable formats, as described above. Normal
audio files, such as recordings of instruments, will not be automatically converted into wavetables.
