Has anybody ever heard of anything or seen one or even knows where to get a freeware/shareware one? Thanks in advance Greetings, Canine. -- "On the net, no-one can tell you're a dog..."

Not even if you are willing to go for a commercial package. Alchemy is no more and if you find it, it'll set you back around $700-800, SoundDesigner is very much skewed towards Digidesign products and that's about it. Please, if i'm wrong correct me. I'd love to be corrected on this... -- Arne F.

I'd love to be corrected on this... I don't know what you'd want the editor to be able to do, but I've found SoundEdit Pro to have pretty much everything *I'd* ever do with one... It doesn't support transferring the files to a synth, but I never could get Alchemy to do that reliably anyways. And it has all sorts of fun little features. I'd used SoundEdit 2.0something before, and this has many improvements, like direct-to-HD recording and playing and variable tempo adjustment (mathematically, without affecting the pitch). As I am without a MIDI setup of my own, I've just been using it for mangling things I sample in it. So naturally I don't mind not having any way to get the sound over to a MIDI device. But there have to be ways of getting around that, eh? -- ---------------- Herschel Gelman ----------- hagst3+@pitt.edu ----------------- ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 25 Jan 1994 18:17:27 GMT From: Herschel A Gelman Subject: Re: Ensoniq ASR-10 Sample-editor wanted In article <12907@blue.cis.pitt.edu> hagst3+@pitt.edu (Herschel A Gelman) writes: >In article <9401240318.AA13880@ebs330> claassen@EBS330.EB.UAH.EDU (Arne Claassen ISE) writes: >>> I am desperately seeking a sample-editor for the Macintosh.

Hey, could you give me some info about this program, as i have never heard of it before and it may be the log awaited soul saver. Ah, one snag of course. Can SoundEdit give you an 8-bit preview of 16-bit sample, since i do not have an additional soundcard for the Mac and not hearing it while working with it makes it kind of useless to me. About transfering it to the EPS, no problem. If i can get the sample in SoundDesigner II or AIFF format i can get it to my eps. -- Arne F.

If the ASR-10 talked SMDI you could use Alchemy, but I don't think it does; Ensoniq go their own way again. Oh and Alchemy is orphaned as well, which doesn't help.

Could you tell me how you do that--i.e. transfer SD II or AIFF files to your EPS? I'd like to do the same thing with my EPSm.
