Alright, I was shaking my head 'til I got a headache, but stil...
Soundfonts are sample banks used for Soundblaster soundcards. If you have an AWE32/64 or SBlive! you can load these sounds into your user memory and play them on your keyboard or sequencer.
There's one ore two shareware software samplers that can read and play soundfonts as well ....

Help with Roland S770 sampler

does anyone know anything about the S770 (or maybe S760 as i think its the same thing without internal HD)? could you point me in the direction of some pages for it on the web as i can't find any and someone must be out there. i cannot get my head around its sys ex so stuff like cubase mixer maps would be handy. also is there any way of getting it to stop changing which partial info you are looking at when a midi sequence is playing so you could, for instance, change the ADSR envelope on one sound in context, i.e. with everything else (at the moment the screen just jumps between pages for whatever partial is playing so adjustments are impossible). thanks, if anyone can help

Looping .wav files...

Does anyone know the best way or is it even possible to loop a .wav file, get rid of the extra part of the .wav that didn't fit the loop, and then save the new .wav file? I downloaded zero-x beat creator, and it will automatically loop a .wav, but i couldn't tell from the evaluation version if it would make a new .wav file out of the loop, or not... also, once you have some good loops, is cool-edit the best way to mix them together, or is there something cheaper? thanks for listening....

loop cutting

Recycle, by Steinberg, is a good program to use for this. It can automatically locate good loop points in a wav file, amd then cut the file into segments according to the loop points and save the segments as new wav files. You can then choose the segment you want, and delete the rest.

The new computer monitors with the flat screens are amazing. The amount of space that I have
on my desk is limited. I would love to buy a large monitor, but can’t deal with the size of the
machine. Needless to say, I was very disappointed to learn of the incredibly high price of the flat
screen monitors. Does anyone have a realistic idea as to when flat screen manufacturers will be
able to produce less expensive machines? I have not been too successful finding the information
online. I have however discovered a great place to buy hardware and software by joining others
in group buys. I happen to like http://www.volumebuy.com/vbuy_site/default_pro3.asp. Please respond
with any news. I could win a $5000 Volumebuy Shopping Spree!

Old Newbbie seeks expert help

Hi!

I'm an old fart trying to learn this new medium.

Please forgive me if I ask some different questions...

How do I record MP3 files? Explain what a "ripper" does? Are they all the same quality? Where can I get one for free?

Can I record vinyl records onto MP3 files? Audio Tape? Radio Shows?

TIA - WROX

Re: Old Newbbie seeks expert help

: Hi!

: I'm an old fart trying to learn this new medium.

You don't need a Mac to do this. On this site you can find an abundance of CD rippers that can write your song to a .wav or .mp3 file
If you want to record old records and tapes the best way to do it is to connect your amplifier's line output (i.e. your tape out) to your soundcard's line in input.
It would be best to connct your tapedeck DIRECTLY to your computer's input.

If you're on a Macintosh, all you do is click and drag the file from the CD's icon onto the "ripper".
A "ripper" is the software that converts the CD audio track to an MP3 file. They are not all the same quality. You can get working demo versions of several "ripper/readers". .. see the back issues of hitsquad.com's newsletters .
A qualified "yes." You will need some way to a) import the audio into your computer and b) convert the analog audio to a digital signal.
Some Mac's have this capability built in. Other models and Windoze land users need to purchase and (cringe) install a Digital Audio (D/A) board, its driver and associated software.

Use Winamp, drag mp3s into winamp playlist. click in the top left to bring down the menu, go to options,preferences, click the third one down, says output disk writer or something, then play the songs, you wont hear them but it will transfer your mp3's to a specified folder in wave format

You can use .wav files with the program it supports mostly every kind of wav file except commpressed format. This will crash the mixman studio. When you finish a track it gets sved as what the call a .mix file this can be exported into real audio, wav, sound font and even .mp3 format. Its an easy to use software and well worth the money considering it's under $90 and all the samples that come with the software and the ones you can purchase seperatly are all royalty free these include artist's such as Skinny Puppy(Industrial Band) heaven 17(dance) and K-Klass(house) hope this helps you

wavelab master section doesn't work?

When I apply plugin effects (esp. freefilter) to wav files in wavelab under the Master Section using "APPLY", the destination file is the same as the source file. What have I done wrong, anybody?

Re: wavelab master section doesn't work?

: When I apply plugin effects (esp. freefilter) to wav files in wavelab under the Master Section using "APPLY", the destination file is the same as the source file. What have I done wrong, anybody?

When you hit the Apply button you get a menu that enable you to choose what to do with the new file.
The default is "process in place" and that will overwrite your current file. The other option is to save the output in a NEW file. I believe there's even a third option, but I can't recall...
