Creating and Editing Samples

Optimizing WAVE files for sample editing
When you record your own WAVE files to use as samples,
the two biggest problems you will encounter are silences,
(like you may have already experienced at the beginning of
your AAH) and volume levels. Samples should always be at
the maximum possible volume level without distorting in
order to work optimally as instrumental sounds.
The Genesys Ensemble offers a few simple tools which can
be used to automatically fix problems such as these. First,
well locate the WAVE that we just recorded using the SONG
PLAYER and then we can try to repair these problems.
Press SONG PLAYER/
SELECT and choose
WAVE on the right
side (F3). If you look
inside the SAMPLES
folder, you should find
your AAH sound,
(which is now called
Aah.wav)
Press ENTER once again to tell the system that you want to
edit this sample. As soon as you see the Sample Editor
window you will be able to play your new sample across the
entire keyboard. Try it.
You may notice some problems with your sample. Perhaps
theres a silence at the beginning before the note starts.
These silences get longer and longer as you play lower
down the keyboard. In the next section, well look at how
to resolve these and other common sampling problems.
Now press ESCAPE and then ENTER to leave the Sample
Editor.
