使用波形转换器处理是创建波形音色的最后一个步骤。 首先您应该记录或获得想要使用的原始示例文件。这些示例文件可以在任何数字记录程序中创建并保存为一个wav格式的文件。
收集示例波形之后,用正确的方式命名示例波形是一个很好的做法,这将辅助您正确的把示例波形转换成为波形音色。例如使用它们的声音名称和原始滑音来命名,如下所示:
合并波形成为最终波形音色的过程是非常简单的:
|
A .
|
创建声音文件所需的滑音号码
|
|
B .
|
转载波形到每个分割
|
|
C .
|
设置每个滑音的范围
|
|
D .
|
设置每个分割的参数
|
|
E .
|
转换为波形音色
|
波形转换器是非常灵活的,您不必严格地按照以上顺序进行操作处理,但这是波形转器操作的普遍原理。

3-2-1
创建所需分割的号码 |
|
|
|
|
The number of Splits you need
is determined by how many waves you are using. In the example in 3-1
Getting Started Creating A Sound I have shown five waves, so in this
case I would create five Splits.
To create a split just click on the Edit menu and select
Add Split
Note
|
:
|
There is
some more detail about adding and deleting splits in 2-2-1 The Menu
Bar / Edit.
|
In the following example there are five Splits
To load the waves into each split, simply click on the "Open
Wave File" button in each wave panel and select the wave as you would
in any normal file opening procedure in a Windows programe. The name
of the wave will appear in the "Wave File" box at the top of each
wave panel.
The following is how the wave panels would appear after
loading five waves, in this case for a piano sound:
You can see the name of each wave clearly in the "Wave File"
box at the top of each panel.
Note
|
: |
as mentioned
in 3-1 these waves have been named with the sound name and the original
pitch as a useful reminder
|
|
|
|
|
|
3-2-2 Listen To The Waves
|
|
|
|
|
You can also listen to the waves
to check you've loaded the correct ones simply by clicking on the "Play"
button at the top of each panel. If the wave is long and you want it to
stop playing before it reaches the end, just click on the "Stop" button.
|
|
|
|
|
3-2-3 Set the Key Range
For Each Split |
|
|
|
|
Each Split has a bottom and top note for
its range. In the case of the lowest split (on the far left of the desktop)
the lowest note is fixed at C-1, in this case the lowest Midi note.
You can adjust the top note of any Split simply by clicking on the pull
down menu and selecting the note you want:
Once you've set the top note for a Split, the bottom note
of the next Split to the right is automatically set one note higher.
So in the above example you can see that B3 has been selected for split
number 2, and the lowest note for Split number 3 has automatically been
set to C4.
With this system you only ever need set the highest note
for each Split, the lowest note of the following Split will always
follow on.
You can also set the Split points by clicking on and
dragging the vertical red lines that show the Split points on the
keyboard graphic:

3-2-4 Setting The Original
Note |
|
|
|
|
One of the most important parameters
you'll set with Wave Converter is "Original Note". This is the original
note of the wave in each Split. This is important for two reasons:
|
A . |
You need to tell Wave Converter
which note (ie: pitch) the wave is, so that the final pitch on the
Casio keyboard is correct.
|
|
B .
|
You need to consider using
a wave the original pitch of which is in the same region as the Split
you're using it in.
|
To set the original note, just click on the pull down menu
and make your selection:
You can also set the original note by clicking on and dragging
the turquoise square that shows the location of the original note on
the keyboard graphic:
|
|
|
|
3-2-5 Setting The Loop |
|
|
|
|
You can modify the way the waves
play in your final sound with some simple functions, which are very easy
to set:
Loop
|
|
You have the choice of:
|
|
|
One Shot
The wave just plays once.
All
The entire wave plays once and then loops continuously
from start to finish while a key is held down.
|
If you are creating a percussive sound such as piano, guitar
or a drum sound then use the One Shot setting. If you are creating
a 'Break Beats' or 'Drum Loop' sound, then use the
All setting.
To set the type of loop (One Shot or All)
simply click on the pull down menu and make your selection:
|
|
|
|
3-2-6 Setting Amp Envelope
|
|
|
|
|
You can select from three options
to alter how the sound performs while you hold a note. This in synthesizer
terms would be described as Amplifier Envelope. The three options
are:
|
Sus (sustain)
The wave plays as normal.
Decay short & mid & long
The wave dies away like a percussive sound, even if
it is a sustained type sound like and organ
|
To set the Amp Envelope simply click on the pull down menu and
make your selection:
|
|
|
|
3-2-7 Setting Filter Envelope
|
|
|
|
|
There are two options of Filter
Envelope, which will be very useful depending on the type of sound
you are using. Filter Envelope is a synthesizer like function that makes
the sound get mellower over time as you hold a note:
|
Touched
The amount of Filter Envelope changes depending on velocity.
Hitting the key harder will result in the Filter Envelope closing
more slowly, with the effect that the sound will stay brighter for longer.
Very useful for percussive sounds such as Piano and Guitar
Fixed
The Filter Envelope is preset and not affected by velocity.
|
To set the Filter Envelope simply click on the pull down menu
and make your selection:

3-2-8 Converting To
A Casio Sound |
|
|
|
|
After completing the process of
creating the number of Splits you need, loading a Wave into each Split
and setting the range and Parameters for each Split, you are ready to
convert to the Tone with Wave. Simply select "Convert" in the File Menu:
and a tyical Save Window will appear:
Simply type the name for your new Tone with Wave File and
save as you would in any Windows application.
To load the new Tone with Wave into your WK3000, WK3500
or CTK691.
Please use the Data Manager Software.
