Hi,

I've always really wanted to sample my hardware synth in order to make some Soundfont to put into a Spectralis. So I've coded it using Chuck and added a GUI.

It's based on ChucK language, that you can find here, and more specifically the special version, Asio ChucK. I wish I'd have the skills and knowledge to code in full the audio engine and MIDI and timing, but I just can't. So I'm using it as the core of this little program.

It samples from your two first input of your ASIO sound card, and records the samples into C:\ChuckGUI and into the folder named after the Instrument Name you put in. It records only the F notes, so you can map it easily, and two mono file per note. You can choose how many notes you want, from F-2 (5) to F8, and also up to six layers of velocity. And of course the MIDI Chanel. It samples the time (in second) you enter in Note On, where the Note is ON ( Rolling Eyes ), then sample the Note Off time (also in second) after the Note Off message is sent, for Release or effect purpose.

Thanks to Chuck, it's pretty accurate, so you don't have to edit the files after sampling.

I wanted to pack it into a Soundfont, but it wouldn't be as flexible as importing sample in Viena.

With two sample per note, it's easy to link them in Viena, and also to layer them. The ChucK windows will show some token errors, it's not important don't look at them Embarassed

I hope you will find a use for it !

Arnaud

94 views and no answers... At least can someone tell me if it actually works on other setup than mine ?

Hello, your idea is really cool! ( :

I have done "the same" before, but using only ableton and a "virtual midi cable" ( native on osx )..

I think the main reasons nobody answers you are:
- your binary file is for windows
- you didn't show your chuck code
- you did a custom GUI ( you're not using miniAudicle )
