Awesome new toy: WaveEdit
-
Ooo I'm recording a trumpet tomorrow, I'll get a few crescendos, is there any particular note that is best for this? or is it one crescendo per note?
Edit: I just read your Clarinet page, I remember reading it last year some time actually. I'm recording in a large hall tomorrow so it probably won't be a suitable environment for this kind of process.

OK so this thread is a bit old, so before I head off down this rabbit hole - what is the current state of this? If I use this WaveEdit thing can I then import the results into HISE?
-
Lindon bringing this thread back to life reminded me... I recorded those trumpet crescendos but apparently forgot to do anything with them. Here they are if anyone would like to have a go at making some wavetables out of them.
-
I'm looking forward to seeing this implementation
-
Nah, that wave edit thing turned out to be less useful than I thought. I wrote the WavetableExtractor instead, which basically creates Wavetables from Samplemaps suitable for the WavetableSynthesiser inside HISE.
It's horribly broken, but if you guys want to play around with it, I can take a quick look how to get it back on track.

@Christoph-Hart so what does the WavetableExtractor do then?
-
It analyses the harmonic content of each sample using and creates a set of 64 wavetables from start to end containing the harmonic structure of the original material. If you use this with crescendo samples, you can get interesting effects.
I got it back to run through now, the samples from David are awesome. It spits out .hwt files that you can feed into the Wavetable synthesiser.
-
So if I understand well, it should be easy to import wavetables from WaveEdit or any other utility then?
Or we can only feed the Wavetable synthesiser internally from the extracted data?

@Christoph-Hart I am currently trying to import wavetables from WaveEdit with no success
I tried to stick the 64 .wav files (256 samples) end to end (pro tools does that automatically) to make one big file (16 384 samples), but the samplemap doesn't want to transform into a wavetable as it does for any standard sample. It's like there's no detection during FFT, everything stays flat no matter the settings
I tried different mapping of the samplemap, and tried with the separated 64 .wav as well but nothing works...
Together with the FM limitations, it's no luck for synthesis
Can't help pressing F5 in the forum...

@d-healey I think the answer from this is "horribly broken" :)
The fact is that it's working (more or less) with any sample I throw inside, but not with what is coming from WaveEdit, which is also a wav sample in the end...
Please, Christoph, do something for synthesis
Shouldn't be too hard for that kind of wave file, since it only needs to be sliced in 64 parts isn't it? -
@ustk I think the important part is
that wave edit thing turned out to be less useful than I thought
and this
I wrote the WavetableExtractor instead,
The WavetableExtractor works with crescendo samples, not with anything exported from wave edit. You can try with the trumpet crescendos I posted earlier in this thread.
-
@d-healey Well, I don't really see any difference, I even tried with my voice (talking) and it works. What is coming from waveEdit is also a wav file
When he said "less useful", I think it's about specific format no? -
@ustk could it be because of the size of the file?
-
@d-healey yep that's what I'm thinking too. Will try tomorrow by multiplying its length until the extractor throws something to see if it's usable ;)
-
Ok something must be broken... It doesn't work anymore with any audiofile, not even your marvellous trumpet. I surely made a mistake somewhere, the extractor doesn't detect audio, I cannot even play the original wav, although the samplemap works...
