how do I use a WAV file for my didgeridoo sounds?
« on: October 28, 2023, 12:27:45 AM »
Hi, I have found some suitable sounds for a didgeridoo at specific points in a song we are putting together. (Solid rock by Goanna) The sounds are wav files. I thought I needed to use multipad - but when I tried to create an mpad with these files, it told me the file type is not supported. So, how can I make use of these files in my PSR SX700? If I need to convert them to something else, what to and how? Thanks for your help.
I am a newbie on the PSR 700

Just convert your file to a supported type. Audacity will do this fir you.

Hi Jenny,

the only supported format for audio files used in Audio Link Multi Pads is as follows:

- Wave file (extension .wav)
- Sampling rate 44.1 kHz (= 44100 Hz)
- Resolution 16-bit
- Stereo (!)

Wave files with a different format (e.g. 48 kHz, 24-bit, Mono) or MP3 files cannot be used directly, but must be converted into the correct format mentioned first.

You can use any Wave Editor or Audio File Converter program for this. There are also online audiio converter websites. Just ask uncle Google. :)


Best regards,
Chris

Thanks so much guys:) You are wonderful. Managed to get 2 of the 3 tracks converted (the last one fell in a heap and sounded awful).
