===4.5 Edit Waves===
With this option from the wave menu you can create your Own Waves. In the left part of the screen all own waves are shown. On the right the structure of the selected Own Wave is displayed. You can set transpose for this wave on and off with [CTRL] + cursors. Clearing a wave is done with the [DEL] key.
As you can see an Own Wave usually contains several tones. Per tone you can set on what note should be switched to the tone. Next, you can also set the first note of a tone. This makes it possible to for example play a drum tone on note D#3 while the actual play frequency is a C4. An example of a wave structure is shown below:
START NOTETONEFIRST NOTE
C 1 My Great Bass C 4
C 3 My Other Great Bass C 4
In this example at notes C1 - B2 the tone My Great Bass will be played and with noted C3 - B8 the tone My Other Great Bass is played. The first note is equal on both tones. This can be the result of the used sample frequency with the instruments. Low notes of instruments are often still sampled on high frequencies to keep a reasonable quality.
The explanation above probably sounds complicated at first, but it is not that complicated. It is a matter of experiments and practice, things will become clear after some time.
Own Waves can be named just like Own Voices with the F6 key and saved on disk with F5. Playing the waves is also done the same way.
