Wave10 is a 10 sample player primarily designed for drums & percussions but which is editable enough to use other types of sounds.
A demo is available, but without the solo functions (sub-presets).
for detailled info more info


It is also released with a new filter and a stereo delay effect (grooveLP and AuxDelay, check the above link for descriptions).

Sized down versions are available (Wave 8/7/6/5 ) and Mixsat is also on the CD

There are 2 purchase options (standalone or full) and an upgrade.
All options benefit from a very nice promotion on dozens of samples from http://www.gotchanoddin.com/ .

Check this page for more info about the samples and options.

Have a nice week-end.

I have a added a midi "tour" of Wave10, in a new demo device with midi file and new samples.
Just load the demo and the midi file in your sequencer, put the delayS in the Aux2 to BPM=120, and press play. Listen and view the automation playing.
- The Wave10 version loads with 4 voices. It uses FlangerS and DelayS as aux effects. Some CC numbers are preassigned for the automation demo.
- Also, updated online manual (aux, voices...).

The Midi Tour demo is a live midi version of this mp3 (recorded straight out of Wave10).

Download the midi tour from the "Demos" page of http://www.spacef.com

Have a very nice week end !

Dear Medhi,
I have seen some awesome products from you and have been contemplating the BiOsc, and others. I am still in the learning stages of Scope, a recent hardware convert. From what I gather, I could use this to play back Akai samples by routing it to my STM1632 and pulling samples from an Akai, WAV. pool. Is it really that simple? A small diagram would help me understand. I currently use Solaris 4.1, and B2003, and the GSIF 8-out driver. If I could get this to work I will use it to supplement GS3 samples w/o drain on CPU, only DSP resources. I'm running DSP's @ 50% w/ 2 x 15 DSP. My Giga app. is running at about 80-95 % of CPU cycles, so this might really help out. My second choice is to drag along another Scope box w/ 2 x 6 DSP cards. I would like to avoid this if at all possible.

Hi !
This is a very interesting point and difficult to answer too, but I will try to answer.

You seem to describe a project where an STS sampler would fit better. With wave10, it is a different process.

First, there is no "pool" in the device. You drag-n-drop wave and akai samples from the Scope browser (navigating your hard disks), into one of the 10 slots (all on the same midi channel). You can memorize samples in the main presets or "kit only" presets, but it is not exatly a pool because it saves the samples for each slot, not individually (it saves "kits").

In the project you describe, you do not need a mixer (unless you "want to"): Wave10 has mixer features with gain/eq/fx/aux sections, and you would mainly use the Main Outputs (and the dry outputs). Using the independant outputs for each sample is more for recording into many audio tracks than sending to another mixer.

Then you would use some editing features (vca, filter) and the mix features (eq/fx/gain/aux) to apply effects. It is also midi and remote controllable like most other scope devices.

A small diagram would help me understand.

There are 2 useful pics on the Wave10 page of http://www.spacef.com : 1. a diagram of the audio path (just under the title "intro", 2. a pic of possible connections (in the "aux" section). (the asio sources could be tracks recorded from the Direct/dry outputs of wave10, that you resend to the aux sections).

I currently use Solaris 4.1, and B2003, and the GSIF 8-out driver. If I could get this to work I will use it to supplement GS3 samples w/o drain on CPU, only DSP resources. I'm running DSP's @ 50% w/ 2 x 15 DSP. My Giga app. is running at about 80-95 % of CPU cycles, so this might really help out. My second choice is to drag along another Scope box w/ 2 x 6 DSP cards. I would like to avoid this if at all possible.

Comparing GS and Wave10 seems a very ambitious challenge to me . It is very different: wave10 can remind me of those 80's drum boxes that were just sample players with a few editing features and a sequencer. Some features were inspired by my old EPS16+, but it is far from allowing things like multiinstruments and sophisticated sound banks. It is rawer, and i think funnier to play with.

I cannot really say anything about the cohabitation of both apps in extreme conditions : wave10 is not really "light". It can be sensible to the computer work load as it exchanges info with the pc to play the samples (midi can experience some timing problems in case of bottleneck in the pci bus).

Its advantages are more on the simplicity of the process of hearing a sample (drag-n-drop, play, hear) and having fun mixing 10 samples together with the included mixer/aux features. It might answer a need of "not wanting" to use a complicated app for simple things. The abitility to use spacef/rd filters is also an interesting aspect...

I do not know if all this answers the questions, but i hope it helps. In fact what is important to understand is that it has complete "mixer/aux" features, that it can can be automated and has some included modulations.

Best regards

Mehdi

Well that was a great explanation, thank you. I would use this not for drum sounds, but loops made from WAV.'s of thunder,rain, and other special FX. I will be in touch after I read some more on this device.

Thank You For Your Personal Time,

Hi Jimmy, don't forget there are sample playback modules (SampleDrum) in Modular which are good for making a lightweight sounds effects player...

and Wolf has a freebee sample player that will play Akai samples...

Not to take anything away from the spacef device, which looks very cool...i'll be giving it a try when I get some more DSP.

yes ok, but there is no relationship.... anyway, some mods will be available in a few weeks...
(btw, wave5 was the first 3rd party sfp-preset-format multisample player since the release of sts )

<font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: spacef on 2006-05-24 06:19 ]</font>

Wave-10 is on my wishlist. wave 5 is an amazing tool !!

Thankyou Spacef

Just annoucing what's coming soon:

- Cd : midiFilter2 added to the CD content.

- Wave 8 and Wave 7 : same as wave 10 but with 8 or 7 sample slots only, with 4 or 6 or 8 stereo audio channels respectively. The mix channels allow tro use external sources with the aux effects.
Anim showing Wave10/8/7/6 : Here

- WaveLight : a wave 7 without included eqs to save even more DSP.Here

Now, it will be available for download once I make the demos and help files.
- In the future, the basic pack may replace wave10 by wave8. cds or upgrade don't change except that they add the above mods and midi filter 2.

I added routing pictures too:
Wave8 : Here
Wave7 : Here
nb : the "8b" device on the picture is a minimix, that is found on the tool folder of the cd (like in BlackBox/SilverDisc/Biosc More Info Minimix (nb: several colors available).

More info on Midi Filter 2 Here

All with interchangeable presets/sub-presets.
and always with exclusive promotions on professional samples from:
http://www.gotchanoddin.com/

That's all for now folks...

Mehdi

Wave7 is available in the Wave user area (in the main package).
Please note that Sat Delay is not yet available (will be shortly to users of the full pack).

A routing example is available Here

The pictured dev below has been used for those 2 mp3
MP3-LongDelay01
MP3-FastDelay01

sorry for posting again;
prices that are now 30 euros (standalone) and 60 euros (cd) will be increased to 40 and 70/80 euros due to forthcoming additions (mods of wave10, not new filters/effects)...

but those who got the packs before those future releases will not have to pay anything more...
this is not to attract new customers immediately, but just to inform of what will happen and not take people by suprise.
This is also conditional info that may change as might fit.

thanks for understanding.

MIXSAT is added to wave 10 CD together with wave 10/8/7/6/5.
