Creating User Voices (Sampling Files)
Audio files that have been recorded using a computer or downloaded from the Internet
must be converted to the TENORI-ON user voice file format ("sampling" file format with a
".tnw" file name extension) before they can be loaded into the TENORI-ON user voice
numbers and played.
The TENORI-ON User Voice Manager software provided on the supplied CD-ROM can be
used to convert audio files to the appropriate format and assign them to the TENORI-ON
LED buttons. Sampling files thus created can then be transferred to the TENORI-ON using
an SD Memory Card.
1 Prepare the audio files.
Samples can be extracted from commercially obtainable sample CDs, downloaded
from the Internet, or recorded using your own recording equipment or computer. The
sample files must be in either WAV or AIFF format.
The supported file formats are as follows:
22.05 kHz, 24 kHz, 44.1 kHz, or 48 kHz sampling rate; 8 or 16 bits; stereo or mono.
Mono files will be converted to stereo files with the same data in the L and R channels.
Up to 16 samples can be assigned to each user voice (one of each of 16 LED
buttons). For a single instrument voice, for example, those samples can be at 16
different pitches. The audio files assigned to a TENORI-ON user voice can be used
in two different ways:
Sound effects, drum or percussion sounds, or other types of one-shot samples can be individually
played by the LED buttons to which they are assigned.
Audio files of the same instrument at different pitches can be assigned to the LED buttons in scale
sequence so they can be played in the same way as the internal MIDI tone generator voices.
It is necessary to prepare the appropriate type of audio files according to way they
are to be used.
