Posted: Tue Mar 04 2008 14:26 Saving loops to .wav files? |
|
Im having trouble saving a loop to a .wav file. Once I set the loop, I hit the little save icon, but if I open up the .wav file again, the loop is "No Loop" once again. I've tried saving the .wav file in the loop window as well as the instrument window. I know it can be done somehow, because I open up .wav files that come with loops. What am I missing here? Thanks |

I don't think that loop informations will be stored along with a wave file anyway. IMHO That's because a wave will only store the sondinformation, but not what you are telling a programm to do with it, as long as you don't change the wave itself.
I can remember that the amiga stores lopp informations along with a sample. but i think that's a feature of the IFF - format.
But the loop information will be stored when saving the song.
so if you create a song, using sample-loops. the loop will also be stored when saving the song, but not by saving the sample itself.
so as far as i could say, there are only three possibilities you could try.
1. create your loop, implement in in one track, create a one-track-song with it and use MT's wave-export feature.
so you are going to have one long sample containing your loops.
but this will take a lot space, so maybe you better choose a good sample editor (wavelab/audacity) to create your loop via copy and paste.
2. play the sample every time, once you want it to play
3. I think MT as able to work with IFF files. so if you have an amiga, you could create your sample with this one and save it as iff-sample.
I'm not sure but maybe it could work |
i hate signatures |

You gotta save that as an .mti (Madtracker instrument).
That keeps the wav file, the loop and any other settings u did on it. |
