DSoundTool Examples

Here you can find a few examples that show how you can create own .dsnd files using DSoundTool.

Clave

This example is a recording of a clave (unfortunately the sound quality is not good, it is just an example). All samples are contained in one wave file.

To convert the wave file to a .dsnd file, use menu Dsnd/Generate .dsnd file, choose Percussion and select the clave.wav file. Make sure that "Input" is set to "All samples are contained in one .wav file".

Count

"Count" is a quite useless sound; it contains 10 samples of a human voice saying 1 to 10. The idea is that the harder you hit, the higher numbers will be "said". But since the Drumit Five module seems to pick sounds from a wide range of samples, even if you hit equally hard all the time, many different numbers will be said.

This example illustrates how to use a directory that contains several samples, each on in its own wave file. The velocity of the sample is explicitly specified in file velocities.map

To convert the samples to a .dsnd file: use menu Dsnd/Generate .dsnd file, choose Percussion and select any of the .wav files in this directory. Make sure that "Input" is set to "Many .wav files, 1 sample per file".
