1.3 The WAMI BOX instrument architecture
The WAMI BOX instrument architecture consists of three levels. The bottom
level is the sample, based on a file in wave audio format. The recording and audio
processing of samples is not performed in Ed!son, but in Ed!son Wave or another
sample editor. The finished wave file is then imported into Ed!son. One or more
loaded samples make up an instrument, together with the pitch, filter, volume and
modulation settings. These can be saved separately in TTI (TerraTec Instrument)
format.
One or more instruments make up a soundset. In addition to instruments, a
soundset can also contain variations and drumkits. Soundsets, i.e. collections of
instruments, can be saved in their own file format with the ending TTS (TerraTec
Soundset).
The Set Manager is used for the management of the soundsets created in Ed!son.
While the TTI format is primarily used to exchange individual instruments or the
construction of new soundsets, finished soundsets in TTS format are used during
a sequencer session or music production. Use the Set Manager for this purpose,
as it permits up to eight soundsets to be loaded into the memory of your WAMI
