Awave Version: 3.1
(Frank Markus Jonsson)
Date: Oct 18, 1996;
File size: 298 KB;
Category: Audio;
License: Shareware
Awave reads more than a hundred
audio-carrying file formats from different
platforms, synthesizers, and trackers. It
presents the instruments contained in a
file as a graphical tree with the bank
item at the top, instruments as branches,
and waveforms as leaves. If you have
one of the supported wavetable
synthesis sound cards, you can just click
on an item and directly "audition" it using
a midi keyboard or the computer
keyboard. If you have just a basic
sound card capable of audio playback,
you can use it as a crude (monophonic)
synthesizer to get an idea of what it
should sound like. Saving an item to any
of the supported export formats is as
easy as double clicking on the item and
selecting the export type. Sending and
receiving MIDI SDS Dumps is also
supported, for transferring waveforms
with professional synthesizers. There are
visual editors for most instrument and
waveform parameters, like loop points
and keymaps. Some audio processing
and editing functions are also provided.
