Re: Kurz-to-EXS?

2003-08-24 by Noble Gowing

Yep, I also use Translator for Kurz to EXS24.  I've translated many 
programs over, specifically the ones that don't use a lot of the 
VAST engine, such as realistic sounds such as drums, flutes, etc..  
The keymaps translate extremely well.  

One problem I did encounter was with the Young Chang 16MB piano, 
which -- as it turns out -- uses samples sampled at as low as 
18kHz.  The guys at Kurzweil were ingenious with that piano and it 
sounds excellent.  However, the EXS does not like playing the notes 
that are sampled at these extra low rates, and the result is a 
resonant buzz.  Garth at Chicken Systems said he is going to modify 
Translator to "convert" the extra-low sample rate samples to higher 
ones during the conversion to eliminate this problem.  I'm not sure 
he's done this yet.  Garth, are you listening?
