Awave Studio is a multi-purpose audio tool that reads a plethora of audio carrying file formats from different platforms, synthesizers, trackers. It can be used in a variety of ways — as a file format converter, as an audio editor, or as a synthesizer instrument editor. It is the Swiss army knife for anyone working with digital audio and music.

Feature overview:

  • Do conversions between 400+ audio related file formats. See the complete list.
  • Read and write the instrument formats of many commercial synthesizers, hardware modules, and software synths, including formats from AKAI, Ensoniq, Korg, Kurzweil, Roland, Yamaha, Native Instruments and many more.
  • High quality conversion can be made between most formats, preserving important synthesis parameters such as LFOs, filters and envelopes.
  • Read several disk formats that can not normally be accessed by Windows, including formats used by AKAI S-1000 CDs, AKAI S-3000 CDs, Roland S-5xx and S-7xx series CDs and floppy disks, and Kurzweil native CDs.

  • Auto-sample any MIDI or VSTi 2 instrument.

  • Convert song data between several formats.
  • Convert your songs into audio clips with superior audio quality using the bult-in software synthesizer.
  • Convert FM and LA synthesis instruments into sampled instruments — with conversion support for all major Yamaha DX-series and Roland D-50/MT-32 SysEx formats, as well as PC Adlib file formats.
  • The Batch conversion wizard makes converting large numbers of audio files extremely simple — including optional effects processing.
  • The Audio, Instrument and Song processing wizards helps you with common editing tasks, e.g. resampling, normalizing, time stretching, pitch scaling, smoothing, recombining, ...
  • Data is organized in an easy to use three pane layout — with a hierarchical instrument tree to the left, a waveform list in the model, and a property inspector view to the right.
  • Graphical editors for instrument parameters — e.g. the much applauded loop editor that lets you easily find the best loops.
  • Edit parameters for multiple items simultaneously, as quickly and easily as you edit a single item.

  • Fully supports SoundFont 2, DLS level 2, and a large subset of SFZ v2.

  • You can also use it as an editor for many other synths — for some, it is the only PC editor.

  • Audition instruments directly with the PC keyboard or using an external MIDI keyboard.

I have owned and used this product for a couple of years now, while also being an extremely long time user of another "big" conversion tool. While the "big" tool worked somewhat fine with the big-dog names such as Akai and E-Mu, it lacked severly in quality (stability).

I found out about AWave a few years ago, found that it supports a lot of functionality that I needed, or didn't even know i needed and then some. Not only is this software way more robust than the alternatives, its actively being developed and improved (with a great and responsive main developer at the helm). This has become my main goto tool for any task that involves format conversion and/or adjustment of existing banks/patches for my samplers and workstation.

Highly recommended.

If you need to get samples off old floppies, exchange samples between samplers, convert banks from old samplers to Kontakt, Awave Studio is your huckleberry.
