corresponding WaveSample in the companion layer.
About Mix, Merge, and Splice
The MIX, MERGE, and SPLICE commands are very similar. You will always be working on a
pair of WaveSamples—source and destination WaveSamples. These commands take a source WS
and mixes, merges, or splices it into a destination WS. FR INST=## L=## WS=##, determines the
source. TO INST=## L=## WS=## determines the destination. For best results the source and
destination WaveSample should be in the same instrument, in different layers.
CONVERT SOURCE PITCH and CONVERT DEST PITCH let you combine WaveSamples that
were sampled at different sample rates, or were on different root keys. If the WaveSamples are
on the same root key, but have different sampling rates, their data will be different. The ASR-10
can’t simply add them together because they would be out of tune with each other. It has to
convert the sample rate of one or the other.
Before executing these commands, you should assign the layer containing the destination
WaveSample to a different patch (on the Edit/Instrument page) than the patch containing the
source. This way, when you “audition” the sound after the commands have been executed, you
can specifically hear the final results of the operation, and not the final results and the source
WaveSample together. This process is similar to that described in the COPY WAVESAMPLE
command.
Note:
When using the MERGE or SPLICE commands, the VOLUME BALANCE function only lets you
hear the relative volumes of the source and destination WaveSamples, not the final results. You
will be able to hear the final results after the WaveSamples have been merged or spliced.
VOLUME BALANCE controls the relative volumes of the source and destination WaveSamples.
When the value is negative, the source WaveSample is louder. And when the value is positive,
the destination is louder.
