Howto save output to a wave file?

Post by sscilli »

Hello there, I'm wondering if there is a simple way of saving the stereo output of my sinth into a wave file. :D
For example, I'd like to sample 4sec. of output by pressing a button and then just have the sample saved into a file.
I really like this software but as I'm new to it I have some problems figuring out howto do it. :oops:
Any suggestion welcome :idea:

You could also record a sample bank from your synth by using like wavelab or so and have your synth connected to your audio in. Touch every sound long enough so afterwards you can make a good loop after cutting and saving all samples.
Then rebuild the bank in a wave array or so.

But for rebuilding your samples into a bank you can load and play it as a softsynth i would use Kontakt. Because it is easy and takes over all loop points correctly wich you assigned in wavelab or any other program, in stead of messing around with sfz in flowstone.

I know of 2 ways if u want to do it in FS.

1. Take the audio stream with the component 'mono to graph'. You will need to trigger it with 'ruby custom ticker' example 4 times. I imagine u would use 4 m2f primitives. You need to do it 4 times, because the component only samples maximum one second. The float array data can then be appended into a 4 second long array, which is converted with 'float array to mem' component into the format which can be saved as .wav. There is the primitive 'save wave' to output the .wav file. This is convoluted, but IMO it would work, I have successfully made a recorder for 5 min takes this way.

2. Render the audio to a mem, using 'wave write' and a counter. This is prolly the best option, it's seemingly less complicated. You need to check the R&D components options in the options menu to display the 'wave write' primitive.

Hey, u had the same idea as me. My synth records it's own output for resampling. Additionally u can load up the waveform after cutting it into the wavetable osc. This is all done within the plugin.

Happy to answer any questions, and help with the schematic
Cheers
