User Manual

Samples and

Oscillator Waveforms

Your purchase of Iris 2 includes over 11 GB of samples as .WAV ﬁles that you can use both

in Iris 2 and in other software. These collections include samples from classic synthesizers,

acoustic instruments, and unique abstract sounds and

environmental textures that lend themselves particularly

well to musical sound design.

The delineation between samples and oscillator

waveforms (OSC WAVs) is purely organizational. The OSC

WAVs give you quick access to samples of classic analog

oscillators, which can be easily auditioned and layered.

The OSC WAVs take the place of the Sub waveform that

existed in Iris 1, eectively giving a user the option of

up to four samples or Sub waveforms in any patch. The

included samples are grouped by seven simple source

descriptions, and have sub-categories within these folders.

LOAD A SAMPLE

There are multiple ways to import your own .WAV or .AIF samples into Iris 2, but you can

also build folders in your designated sample library location to customize the sample

organization to ﬁt with your workﬂow.

Note: Changing the name or location of sample folders included with the Iris 2 content

will break patches. However, these missing samples can be relinked using the Missing

Samples dialog box which will appear automatically when a patch is loaded.
