TENORI-ON AND SAMPLING
A key advantage of the hardware
versions of the Tenori-On (TNR and
TNR-W-O) versus the iPad-App
discussed in the previous article is
the ability to use samples.
This article is about how to manage a Te-
nori-On sample library on the basis of your
own or purchased samples and how to load
them into the Tenori-On.
SAMPLINGS AND
USER VOICES
Audio files (samples) in WAV or AIFF for-
mat can be loaded into the User Voice
section of the Tenori-On and then played
just like the internal Voices.
The User Voice section of the Tenori-On
can store up to three Voices, which can
be selected as illustrated using the Voice
numbers <01/16>, <02/16>, and
<03/16>.
Each User Voice can have up to 16 indivi-
dual samples, which can be assigned to the
16 LED buttons.
Thus, in the Tenori-on a maximum of 48
samples can be used simultaneously.
Samples can be up to 0.97 seconds in
length, resulting in a total capacity of ap-
prox 46 seconds.
The User Voices are loaded as „Samplings“
from an SD memory card into the Tenori-
On.
The following five functions for Samplings
files are available in the Tenori-On:
•Load Samplings
•Save Samplings
•Rename Samplings
•Delete Samplings
•Samplings Info (information about
the Samplings files)
For more information about the functions,
see the manual on pages 93 to 98.
The Samplings are non-volatile. Once loa-
ded samples remain in the memory even
after switching off the device.
USER VOICE
MANAGER
With the largely self-explanatory User
Voice Manager users can create Voices
for their Tenori-On. Samples from WAV or
AIFF format are converted to the file for-
mat used by the Tenori-On (file name ex-
tension „.tnw“). In addition, the software
is used to assign or „map“ samples to the
16 LED buttons.
