Title: need help with sampled sounds
Post by: rednova on October 24, 2011, 06:54:15 PM

Hi:

I have a nice sound sampler -megalosound-
I can digitize nice sound effects -I think is .iff sounds ?-
I would like to make a sound bank in amospro with all the
sounds included - .abk - then be able to invoke each sound
in amospro. How can I do this?
Pls help me !!!

Love !!!

I can't remember whether AMOS supports any other sound effects formats other than the raw format.

Can't you convert the .iff format (or whatever Megalosound uses) to .raw format? Then you can just load all the raw samples into a single bank, one sample after the other.
Play sample by using the Sam Raw command I believe. You will need to know where the sample starts (e.g. offset from the start of the bank) and the frequency it was recorded at (e.g. 8000Hz). If you play it back at the wrong frequence (e.g. 14000Hz) it usually sounds terrible. Playing a sample back at a higher frequency than it was recorded at will result in speech sounding like the Chipmonks (e.g. high pitched voices).
