Nice! Thank you thomaso! I am gonna try this with the Piston Honda wavetables as above mentioned.
To import into the M, Vlad gave an explanation here:
Serum .256 files (8-bit exports) fits ideally. Just export from Serum, rename to wtslotXX where XX is between 00-31, i.e. number of the slot in the M. Then copy the file to the SD Card in the root directory, choose in the Option slot, and skip settings. Then go to the Operations and select Load user wavetable.
Serum seems like the best thing for making your own wavetables. But i wont buy a full softsynth just for those features. hehe Would love just the wavetable generating part as a stand alone software.
Have you found a good way to make wavetables? Waveedit is ok, but you cant automatically interpolate between wavetables, so you have to fill every slot manually. Audioterm looked nice, but that is Win only.
I think both the novation and microfreak are pretty heavily interpolation based wavetables also, so likely they wouldnât be of much use even if you could export. Arturia does seem to have a slightly better implementation though.
I wonder if that single cycle wave tool ess made would be a good way to put together an interesting wavetable, might be a pain to stitch together all the waves though. I might need to keep my eyes peeled for a good sale on serum just for making wavetables down the road. Honestly the built in waves cover a ton of ground I havenât really found times that I am desperate for something thatâs not in there for more traditional sounds. Would be fun to build some robot voice stuff with wavetable though.
Audioterm is cool for making wavetables! It is a bit cumbersome to get around as it is a copy of the waveterm for ppg i think. But after some messing around and some youtube tutorials i was good to go.
It can import samples, and automatically make wavetables from that. Short speech samples are awesome! hehe.
You can also draw in wavetables and interpolate between them. So you dont have to draw or import 64 waves. Then you can export as a 64 slice wave file. It only has 32 waves but it interpolates between them. Then opened that in Audacity and export to raw 8bit unsigned.
Here is a droneish thing i made with a âhomemadeâ additive type wavetable. Only one oscillator used, and some lfo action. Just a improvisation so everything is played and tweaked live.
Holy⌠what a synth! I wanted to import those Piston Honda WavetablesâŚfired up the M and along the line got totally distracted, lost in playing with the M and came up with another track for my next album.
Yeah, its been a long time since ive been this impressed with the sound of a synth. It just has that raw tone thats awesome. And it is full of strange quirks that makes it a bit different than other modern synths.
A friend says it really reminds him of the sounds you get out of the OSCar with its additive synth engine.
Yeah. I think someone said it worked fine in a âwindows wrapperâ program, but i havent tried. I had an old win laptop i could use. Makes audioterm feels even more authentic when you use a dedicated computer just for making wavetables. haha.
