Just to also clarify, currently the export format will be a 2048 sample cycle, but we are also interested in other formats that designers/users would like to export to. We crrently only have Camel Audio's Alchemy on the list, but are also looking into other formats. If anyone has a specific format that is required, please do let us know.

I'm not 100% sure about the 'create insane waveform' button, but I imagine it would be something that could be looked into

Alchemy needs the RAW-Format or Wav files with at least 20 periodic passages.
Alchemy can not import a single cycle waves.

formats to work with;;

Alchemy already mentioned

Cakewalk Rapture (i think it uses plain .wavs?)

Vember Audio Surge
up to 1024
file extension .WT (or .wav for windows users)

FAW Circle
2048 (not sure if its fixed length)
file extension .WDF

would be great to be able to import/export from the various wavecycle/table formats.

decent batch operation of any import/export functions would be great

customizable naming conventions for output files
(so i could export for example 3 octaves of individual wavecycles named by note, or number, with perhaps a custom prefix or two)

ability to output (collections of) wavecycles as soundfonts too

ability to import an audio file of any length, and have the application automatically/randomly select a designated number of wavecycles

ability to import an audio file of any length and scrub through it with a fixed window size of 2048 or 1024 etc to find desirable wavecycles


will post more ideas later

and osx compatibility of course!

U-He Zebra
2048 (if im not mistaken it creates a wavetable a size of 16 cycles with a length of 128 samples each adding up to a total of 2048, or is it a wavtable of 8 cycles of 128 adding up to 1024 ?)
file extension .h2p

Alchemy needs the RAW-Format or Wav files with at least 20 periodic passages. Alchemy can not import a single cycle waves.

Is it a plugin or a standalone tool? If standalone: Generate random waveforms and save them via batch to file.

It would be great to have a spectrum-meter strip on top or underneath which displays the harmonic range the waveform.
It only updates when changes to the waveform are made, realtime would be nice to have but not necessary. For example a perfect sine curve should have a mark in the front of the spectrum-meter, a noisy waveform should have marks all over the place.

confirming that Alchemy uses .raw for importing cycles as OSCs and LFOs

likewise Absynth for LFO and OSC uses the .gly format

You can use WAV as OSC waveform with Discovery Pro. Only requirement is loop points with minimum size of 128 samples. Take that as a feature request

old but usefull, did you know this:

Rndwave! 1.2 - 16/24-bit Wave Shape Generator

Single OCS formats:
Big Tick Rhino
Imageline's Harmor
ImageLine Toxic
