i've got DH samplersnatcher II recording at its input and triggering at different pitches from keyboard. but each time i stop SE, the DH memory is wiped and i have to start again. s'pose i need to hook it up to DH wavewriter? but not clear how to use 'dsp text' left-side 'file' pins - would i need to use KDL dirfile C/D, a text patchmem, and a filepath setup - no idea atm... i want to be writing to file while record is active, and able to name sample+directory before moving to a new recording - haha, only that? it looks like it could be possible. supposedly, DH samplesnatcher has a default file called sample.wav(?or s'thing) but it isn't writing to it atm, or reloading-my folder permissions are unchanged so maybe it can't write there - don't really want it to, would want to be able to specify another location. so then you'd have record mode and sample program/keygroup assign mode, the latter reloading recorded+named samples to wave players  hehehe, and maybe be able to record from input, and play back the 'program'(akai-speak) at the same time. a kind of virtual s950  |

You should use "DH_Wavewriter" for the recording side of things. The Filename pin is the usual stuff, so it should be easy to hook up a TextI/O module or something more sofisticated The Gate-pin activates recording IF the green list-selector is set to "RECORD". When recording, setting Gate low will pause the recording, and will continue where it left off when GATE goes high again. When "STOP" is selected (no matter the state of the GATE-pin!) the recording stops and writes a header to the wavefile and shuts the "DH_Wavewriter" off. This would be a good time to enter a new filename etc. |

what is the difference between samplesnatcher and wavewriter?
and i've never really tried recording stuff with SE so i'm not sure
how to save recordings to a specified location - or where they end up
if not specified.
thinking KDL DirFileCD and similar modules but really not too confident
with that other than a couple of demo prefabs to refer to.
i'm thinking i'd record to (eg:'my recordings'), and the instrument would
then look for them there when loading samples into slots, eg: to wave players,
or other sample playback modules.
question: would samples load to RAM or would they always be streaming from HDD?

SampleSnatcher is restricted to 3 minutes max. recording time, but is a more sophisticated module overall. Wavewriter can record big files But since You decide when to start stop recording, all You need to do is inserting a Wavewriter on the output of SampleSnatcher. To playback later connect a Waveplayer on the input (if You haven't done that already) and serve the "Snatcher" a filename from Your library of files Example of filenaming: TextIO: "C:\Audio\MySnatches\" and then textappend "Snactch" + "##" (user-input-text/value-to-text, so recordings can be named/numbered differently)+ ".wav" before sending it to the Filename pin. |

mmm i'm not thinking of making a vst plugin for spies 3 minutes, that's cool, samplesnatching is what this is about. thank you for pointing out the distinction, though :tu: oh i have to study your filenaming example like the scriptures... thankeeeyouuuu(if it works.. ) so: snatch the sample,then wavewrite it to file, and waveplay it later. so: where would a recommended directory be? should i have a main folder on my c drive root called audio? maybe it would be a good thing, i don't know, i tend to put everything in mydocs. could i do that with this, or is c:\audio better? can i just ask you about this: (Example of filenaming: TextIO: "C:\Audio\MySnatches\" ) >>and then textappend "Snactch" + "##" (user-input-text/value-to-text, so recordings can be named/numbered differently)+ ".wav" before sending it to the Filename pin. Read more: syntheditforum.boards.net/thread/133/proper-sampler?page=1&scrollTo=752#ixzz31OUha8TJwhat is ##? i'm trying to visualize this text append, what is going into it.. snatch is the name? +## >wildcards?+.wav, extension ok so i can just enter # as a 2digit value from a fader, right? ok. so i could have the directory on text append too, c: etc.. what about KDL dirfileCD? for making new kit folders? i need to look into the whole menu/browser thing, i haven't done any of that yet(same for preset loaders..) |

I havent' worked that much with Dir-modules, allthough that's pretty straightforward too. IF You have a physical second (3rd. etc.) drive in the computer, I'd suggest You use that for audio-files. As for the naming and function it looks like You got what I mean correct. I don't know if it's the smartest way to do it, but it works Also when multisampling, You can then build some logic to autoname each sample with a sample-count-number (using the '##', or even '###' if a fullsampled keyboard is needed). Oh! Forgot to say that for the textfunctions I use the DH-modules |

hehehe, and
