!TXC! = TX16W <-> .SMP CONVERSION UTILITY ver 3.01
=============================================================================
fREE tO dISTRIBUTE aND cOPY, with permission of author(daSZ). code available
on request. To become a registered user, send $10 to daSZ at garncarz@sfu.ca.
Proceeds from this will go towards the daSZ K2000S w/64Megs Purchase
Fund (dK64PF) :).
---- ----
Version 3.01 features:
----------------------
* light-speed .smp -> tx16w file conversion
* no bugs, no problems as a result of .smp -> tx16w conversion.
* full Typhoon OS / Yamaha OS 2.0x compatibility
Future plans:
-------------
* light-speed tx16w -> .smp file conversion
* an AIFF-C <-> .smp converter (for them new OS files)
Make sure the folowing files are present:
txc.exe (new VERSION converter)
16cnvt.com
manual.txt ( this file )
Create a directory (ex. C:\tx16util. Now copy the above files into that
directory.
Include the tx16->smp(txsmp) utility direcotry path in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
(ex. PATH C:\tx16util if that is the only path you have, or PATH C:\dir;C:\
dir2;c:\tx16util).
To to run the converter type txc -h or txc -? or just txsmp, a syntax
listing will follow.
A good idea would be to create a transfer directory as one of your sample
vision sounds subdirectories (ex. C:\SV\SOUNDS\XFER ). Also, you can
write batch files which will list all the .SMP or .Wxx files and then
run the conversion utility, so you can see the file names of the files
you want to convert (ex. SMP.BAT would consist of DIR *.SMP /W
16W-SMP ).
NOTES!:
1. You cannot have a samplevision file and a tx16w file with the same name
in one directory. (.ex SOUND1.SMP and SOUND1.W21 )
2. Txsmp will remove the original file and will only leave the converted
file. So a good idea is to copy any files from your sound library into
your x-fer directory,and use this directory as a temporary storage place
always erasing whatever files you've sent to your tx16w or to your .SMP
library.
3. If you're converting a .SMP with a different sample rate from you TX16W
( not 16.7kHz, 33.3kHz ro 50kHz ), 16w-smp will automatically truncate
the sampling frequency to the closest TX16W frequency ( 40kHz --> 33.3kHz
and 44.1kHz --> 50kHz ). Note that the file will sound faster or slower
then the original on SampleVision. To avoid this, use Convert Sample Rate
( to 33.3kHz, 16.7kHz, or 50kHz) in sample Vision before you save your
.SMP file.
IF THERE ARE ANY PROBLEMS(that are not listed in
when writing "txsmp -bugs" email dAREk at garncarz@sfu.ca
