Music Data Management Software - Wave Converter - Basics - CASIO EUROPE Introduction Basics Getting Started To start Wave Converter and the start up page of the Wave Converter will appear as follows: Creating A Sound Detailed Procedure The desktop is divided into three main sections: The Menu Bar, The Keyboard Graphic and the Sample Panels. File Menu http://beta.casio-europe.com/euro/emi/cms/mdms/waveconverter/basics/ (1 of 7) [17.11.
Music Data Management Software - Wave Converter - Basics - CASIO EUROPE The file menu has five options, plus the option to exit completely from the Wave Converter. Three of the options have to do with loading and saving "parameters". Parameters are literally the settings you make in your Wave Converter project. New: Starts a new project Open Parameter: Load a previous project Save Parameter: Save the current project.
Music Data Management Software - Wave Converter - Basics - CASIO EUROPE The Edit Menu gives you the option to add or delete "Splits". This means adding more waves to your final CASIO Sound. (Tone with Wave) When you start Wave Converter it defaults to three splits, which means that you could have three waves, one in each of the three split zones.
Music Data Management Software - Wave Converter - Basics - CASIO EUROPE Note: that the original pitch of the waves you use is important when you consider the total range of the keyboard. If you are creating an instrument sound with a very wide range such as Piano, it is important to use waves which cover the whole range of the keyboard you are working with. The keyboard graphic shows you the area of the keyboard on which a wave will play, and the original note (pitch) of the wave.
Music Data Management Software - Wave Converter - Basics - CASIO EUROPE Most of the work of compiling and adapting your waves into a Tone with Wave is done using the panels immediately under the keyboard graphic. Each of these represents a "Split", and each "Split" contains a wave. The parameters in the panel determine how the waves will play in your final Tone with Wave. The detailed work that creating your sound is done in the lower section of the wave converter.
Music Data Management Software - Wave Converter - Basics - CASIO EUROPE Selecting the third Wave (red) The color of the highlight bar is different for each wave, and the key range and original note of the wave are shown in the same color. Let's look at the functions and parameters in each wave panel: Highlight Bar (green in this example) tells you which panel is active for editing.
Music Data Management Software - Wave Converter - Basics - CASIO EUROPE Original Note is the original note of the wave. This is very important information for Wave Converter or your final sound won't play properly. Loop Type, Amp Envelope and Filter Envelope are all parameters which determine how the final sound plays. These are explained in detail in Detailed Procedure - Setting Amp Envelope, Detailed Procedure - Setting Filter Envelope and Detailed Procedure - Converting to a CASIO Sound http://beta.
Music Data Management Software - Wave Converter - Getting Started Creating A Sound - CASIO EUROPE Introduction Basics Getting Started Creating A Sound The process of using Wave Converter is the final step in creating your Tone with Wave. Firstly you should either record or obtain the original samples you intend to use. These could be created in any Digital Recording Detailed Procedure programe and saved as a .wav file.
Music Data Management Software - Wave Converter - Getting Started Creating A Sound - CASIO EUROPE 1. Create the number of Splits you need for your sound 2. Load the Wave into each Split 3. Set the range of each Split 4. Set the Parameters for each Split 5. Convert to the Tone with Wave Wave Converter is very flexible so you don't have to do things in this exact order, but this is the general principle of Wave Converter's operation. http://beta.casio-europe.
Music Data Management Software - Wave Converter - Detailed Procedure - CASIO EUROPE Introduction Basics Getting Started Creating A Sound The number of Splits you need is determined by how many waves you are using. In the example in Getting Started Creating A Sound I have shown Detailed Procedure five waves, so in this case I would create five Splits.
Music Data Management Software - Wave Converter - Detailed Procedure - CASIO EUROPE 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: http://beta.casio-europe.
Music Data Management Software - Wave Converter - Detailed Procedure - CASIO EUROPE You can see the name of each wave clearly in the "Wave File" box at the top of each panel. Note: as mentioned in Getting Started Creating A Sound these waves have been named with the sound name and the original pitch as a useful reminder 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.
Music Data Management Software - Wave Converter - Detailed Procedure - CASIO EUROPE 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.
Music Data Management Software - Wave Converter - Detailed Procedure - CASIO EUROPE 1. You need to tell Wave Converter which note (ie: pitch) the wave is, so that the final pitch on the CASIO keyboard is correct. 2. 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.
Music Data Management Software - Wave Converter - Detailed Procedure - CASIO EUROPE 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.
Music Data Management Software - Wave Converter - Detailed Procedure - CASIO EUROPE 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.
Music Data Management Software - Wave Converter - Detailed Procedure - CASIO EUROPE 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 WK-3000, WK-3500 or CTK-691. Please use the Data Manager Software. Note: This software can convert 8bit, 16bit ".wav" file.
