Software to help in sampling a synth

Software to help in sampling a synth

2003-07-27 by Avinash Meetoo

Hi all,

I've just bought a new soundcard (a Terratec DMX 6fire 24/96) and I'm 
looking forward to sample my old (and trusty) Kawai K4 synthesizer 
before it dies...

I've been doing that to sample each sound

(1) Create a MIDI track in Logic with notes I want to sample at 
specific velocities

(2) Play the track and record the result (ie the sound from the 
synthesizer) in an Audio track

(3) Use the 'Strip Silence' function to separate the notes and save 
them manually giving them explicit names (for example, Piano C0, 
Piano C1, Piano C2, etc.)

(4) Create a new instrument in the EXS24 editor.

(5) Load the multiple samples and let the editor create the zones.

(6) Save the instrument and have fun with the EXS24 :-)

My question is:

As this is clearly a repetitive process, does someone know of a 
software (preferably free or shareware) that does the same thing? 
Obviously, it would be great to have something that can create an 
EXS24 instrument directly, but, realistically, I would be ok if I 
could find something that just does the MIDI send and the recording 
of the result in separate audio files (preferably with name like I 
mentionned above).

Thanks a lot.

don't worry about the date, to my knowledge the price
is still valid and the program works great!!

Hi,

Sample Move seems to be exactly what I am looking for except that it
is too expensive...

I'll try to look for a simpler application.

Thanks

If you find anything similar for the Mac and OSX, let
me know.
