![]() I’ve run into this issue before when creating PSR/Genos voices via Yamaha Expansion Manager (YEM). The CMS samples are 41000Hz, 16-bit, mono, LINEAR16. Trust me, once you get into the guts of waveform construction, you don’t want to be puzzling out the center note, etc. Make a table summarizing the keybank information: The next preparation step is important no matter how you obtain your sample files. But, hey, this is a learning exercise, plus a chance to dink around with Genos stuff, too. Convert the sample files to Microsoft WAV format.Īdmittedly, this is more work than the average Jane or Joe would do.Rename the sample files to meaningful names, e.g., “Plein_kb0_C1.raw”.Extract keybank information from the UVF file.Find the sample files and the UVF (XML) voice description files in the Yamaha Expansion Manager pack database.Four steps are needed to extract the samples: The samples are relatively small, the demos sounded OK, and the price was right. The samples are part of the “CMS Classic Organ” expansion pack (PPF) for Yamaha Genos™ - not the typical place where one would start. Thank goodness I picked up a little German years ago because the English CMS pages are under construction… Where to start? I started with the free “CMS Classic Organ” samples distributed by CSM Sounddesign. Yeah, I’m going to give Sample Robot for Montage a spin eventually. Back in the day, I created voices through the TG-500’s 24×2 line character display. The scenario that I describe here creates a new waveform using nothing more than the Yamaha MODX user interface (UI). The 1GByte MODX expansion waveform memory looks positively enormous in comparison. The TX16W samples are small enough to fit into the 1MByte expansion waveform of my TG-500. For example, some of my collected samples are from the venerable Yamaha TX16W. I’ve been hoarding pipe organ samples for decades (literally). So, here is a blog post about an experiment that almost worked out. Whether it’s scientific papers or Web how-to’s, you would think that no one ever made a mistake or tried something and failed. ![]()
