At the moment, Wolf is working on a sample cd for moonsound users, to be sold at the MSX fair in Tilburg 2003.
It won't contain burps, cartoon noises, etc. But will contain:
- Numerous pad sounds, perfectly smooth looped (no obvious crossfade leveldrops)
- Numerious coloured noises (a.k.a. 'spectrum noises' in many 90's Roland synths)
- Drums
- Lead sounds
- Ambient sounds ..and much more!
All samples originate from a range of high-end synths, Roland, Novation, Yamaha, and from other sources. Except a few large soundscapes, all samples range in size from medium-small to very small. The pads are usually 32k each, and sampled with intervals of 6 semitones most of the time. Almost all sounds are sampled at 44.1khz, some are stereo, and all are 16bit. The samples are provided in wave format (.wav), so, unless you have a program on your msx that reads/converts wave files, you need to save as a raw file in your preferred sample editor. (Soundforge, Cooledit, Awave etc. etc.)
Since there's no clue yet about how many msx'ers would like such a cd, the only way to make sure you get that cd in Tilburg is reservation. If you want this CD and you are present in Tilburg, send an email to
mvs@mvs-music.tmfweb.nl
Unfortunatly there are no plans to send this CD around the globe if you can't be present in Tilburg. The thursday before Tilburg is the day the CD's will be bought/burned, make sure you reserve in time!
It is recommended that you expand your opl4 ram to 640kb quickly to take advance of this serious library. MSX.org offered several inches on the msx.org booth, so that's where you can find the CD.
Estimated price will be 10 euro
