YAMAHA Wave Editor TWE

Version 2.2.0

for Macintosh

Owner's manual (1/3)

The TWE wave editor (hereafter referred to as TWE) is software for digitally

recording sounds (instrumental sounds, sound effects, voice, etc.) to the

hard disk of a personal computer, and for editing recorded sound data. If an

external Yamaha sampler (*) is connected via a SCSI connection, the sound

data recorded in the sampler can be loaded into TWE and edited, and then re-

transmitted back to the sampler.

*This software supports the Yamaha A3000/4000/5000 professional samplers and

the EX5/5R/7 synthesizers.

TWE was created by the Yamaha Corporation, and is distributed at no cost.

Yamaha Corporation makes no guarantees, implicit or explicit, regarding the

quality or performance of this software. Yamaha Corporation will accept no

responsibility for any damages, direct or consequential (including extended

damages), which may result from use of this software. You must make backups

of data files you create.

In order to use this software, you will need to be familiar with the

Macintosh and the connected devices. Before using this software, please

carefully read this manual and the manuals for your connected device and

Macintosh.

*By using this software, it is possible to create sound data which could not

be produced by normal recording. However, be aware that playing back high

volume full-scale data, or data of extremely low frequencies below 20 Hertz,

or data with a large direct current component may damage your ears and/or

any speakers or headphones that are connected. Please use caution.

[2. Installing and starting TWE]

The TWE application can be used by itself, without any particular

installation procedure.

Double-click the TWE icon. A "Select Working Dir…" dialog box will appear.

Here you can specify the directory in which TWE will create its temporary

working files. (The working directory that you specify here can be changed

using the [Options] menu command [Select Working Dir...]. Refer to "8.2.

Select Working Dir...".)

After you specify the working directory, the TWE title will appear, and Tag

window (the window containing the [Open] button and [New] button) and

Transport window (which contains buttons for playback and recording) will

open.

Then, use the [File] menu commands [Open] or [New...] etc. to open a sound

data file (sound file), and the Waveform Window (TWE's main window which

- 5 -

displays various settings of the sound file) will appear. The following

chapters explain the various parts of TWE's windows.

[3. Tag Window and Transport Window]

3.1. Tag Window

The Tag Window is a small window with two buttons: [Open] and [New].

Clicking [Open] will open an existing sound data file (sound file). (This is

the same function as the [File] menu command [Open...].) Clicking [New] will

create new sound data. (This is the same function as the [File] menu

command [New...].)

If you are using other applications while TWE is running, you may find it

convenient to place the Tag Window at the edge of the screen, so that it can

simply be clicked when you once again want to use TWE.

3.2. Transport Window

The Transport Window contains the buttons which allow sound data to be

played back and recorded, etc.

- 6 -

Moves the playback start location (Play Location) to the beginning of the

sound data.

<Stop>

Stops playback/recording.

<Play>

Begins playback from the playback start location.

Begins recording from the playback start location. During recording, the

loop region setting is ignored. If sufficient space is available on your

hard disk, a maximum of two hours of recording is possible.

If a region is selected in the waveform display area, only that region will

play back. While the region is playing back, the loop region setting is

ignored.

*The TWE window contains two waveform displays. In this manual, the larger

display located below is referred to as the "waveform display (Waveform)."

The smaller display located above is referred to as the "overall waveform

display (Overview)." The waveform display can be made to show a magnified

portion of the overall waveform display. For details on the waveform

display, refer to "4.7. Waveform display," and on the overall waveform

- 7 -

display refer to "4.8. Overall waveform display."

*If the OS you are using is earlier than System 7.5, there will be cases in

which it will not be possible to switch applications while the Transport

Window is being used. In such cases, temporarily close the Transport Window

before switching applications.

[4. Waveform Window]

The Waveform Window is TWE's main window, in which various settings of the

sound file are shown.

A Waveform Window will open when you execute one of the [File] menu commands

[New...], [Open...], or [Import From Sampler...]. Up to twenty of these

windows can be open at once.

4.1. File information display (File)

This display section is located at the left of the waveform display.

The following information is displayed for the sound file currently opened

by TWE. If the device information display (Device) is open, click the File

tab.

The creator (the ID code of the application which created the sound file) is

displayed. Sound files created by TWE are displayed as "YHWO." For sound

files created by other applications, this display will depend on the

application.

Displays the file type (AIFF, Sd2f, or WAVE).

<Size>

Displays the sample size of the sound file in bits.

<Rate>

Displays the sampling frequency of the sound file in Hertz (Hz).

Displays the number of channels within the sound file.

Displays the total playback time of the file

(hours:minutes:seconds.milliseconds).

- 8 -

Displays the total number of samples in the sound file.

Displays the size (number of bytes) of the sound file.

Displays the last time the file was modified (year.month.day and time).

4.2. Device information display (Device)

This display section is located at the left of the waveform display.

The following information on the audio input/output devices etc. is

displayed. If the file information is displayed (File), click the Device

tab.

Specify the volume for playback. In the case of multi-channel sound data, it

is not possible to set the volume of the channels independently.

Indicates the version of the Sound Manager being used.

Indicates the currently selected working directory and its volume (disk

name).

4.3. Playback start location display (Play Location)

This numerically indicates the location at which playback will begin. The

upper line shows the time location (hours/minutes/seconds/milliseconds), and

the lower line shows the number of samples up to that point.

You can click on one of these values and type in the numerical value from

the keyboard of your computer. Numerical values can be input either for the

upper (time) or lower (sample) fields. Changing one will cause the other to

be calculated and set automatically.

- 9 -

If you click on the time axis markings (Time Ruler) of the waveform display

area, the location at which you clicked will be specified as the playback

start location.

While sound data is being played back or recorded, the current location is

displayed in realtime.

4.4. Selected region display (Selection)

This numerically indicates the region that has been selected in the waveform

display. The start, end, and length of the region are displayed as a number

of samples (Sample) and as hours/minutes/seconds/milliseconds (Time).

You can click on one of these values and type in the numerical value from

the keyboard of your computer. Numerical values can be input either for

Sample or Time fields. Changing one will cause the other to be calculated

and set automatically.

You can also specify the selected region by dragging to left or right in the

waveform display area.

During playback, you can press the start point setting button [|<] / end

point setting button [>|] to set the currently-playing location as the start

or end point of the selected region.

If the region lock button is pressed, these values cannot be changed.

If the region length lock button is pressed, modifying either the start or

the end of the selected region will cause the other point to be shifted so

as to maintain the length of the region.

4.5. Loop region display (Loop)
