Utilities for the YAMAHA TX16W digital sampler, including a sample converter, setup file tools, and basic editors.

Download v2.1 240K - Mac OS 8.5 - 9.2

Adapted from my Amiga program AutoMapper, this module creates a performance in 4 steps:

1. Load some waveforms in the TX16W's memory (e.g. using the TX's Wave Edit)
2. Let AutoMapper request the names of all waves
3. Change the Voices, Performances and - if you like - names of the waveforms
4. Push the 'Send' button to build and send the Timbres, Voice and Performance

Further functions allow to customize the mapping and tune single waveforms (i.e. actually the timbres), edit some performance and voice parameters as well as toggle single waveforms/timbres on or off.

The SDX converter turns samples into the TX16W waveform format. The other converters remain disabled.

This module contains 2 functions:

• Setup Info - Shows which performances, voices and waves a TX16W setup file uses, on screen or saved as a text-file.
• Unprotect Files - Some TX16W files are copy protected and won't load ('File copy protected !!'). This removes the protection.
