How
Is Stereo Achieved?
Stereo can only be Achieved on SDS devices by sending both channels
separately.
General Information:
* The MIDI Sample Dump Standard (SDS) is a stripped-down
communications standard which allows the transfer of wave data from machine
to machine. The SDS format contains information about sample rate, loop points
and raw wave data. It does not contain any information about stereo configuration,
key range or unity key. All SDS wave sample you retrieve require the assignment
of a new key range and unity key, and their sustain loop will need to be turned
on using the Loop Cursor icon on Alchemy´s palette. When sending a wave
sample using the SDS, you will always choose the placement of that sample sound
in the destination machines 's memory by using a numeric dialog box. All other
parameters must be set by adjusting the destination device.
* When the 2000 or 2002 send their last block of wave data, you will receive an ERROR ON LAST BLOCK message. You may disregard this, as destination device.
* Neither the 2000 or the 2002 will automatically allocate memory for a new wave sample. For this reason you should allocate memory manually on the samplers before sending a sound. If you do not do this, longer sounds will be truncated and shorter sounds will retain remnants of the old sound at the end.
