that's it, I was replying late at night and forgot the details.

Just to say I think this ois one of the best bits of free software I've ever used - many thanks for giving it to the community and I look forward to what else you do.

How have you been using it?

Just to make wavetables for my old copy of Komplexer, which I'd forgotten about for a few years before dusting off to see if it still worked under Win 8. It's still a great synth and Audio-Term just opened it right up.

Some further examples of AT II. The new sample analysis algorithm isn't finished yet, so I used some of the old wavetables made for Komplexer and applied a bit FM:

Late to the game...but....

Registered just to say how much I love Audio Term (2.26). Really incredible program. I'm running it successfully thru WineBottler on my mac. Using it to make wavetables for a eurorack module, the Flame 4VOX, which happens to use the Blofeld .syx format. This software is invaluable to me. If there's a "donate" button somewhere for this please post it blacktomcat666. Fantastic job!!!!

just started using audio-term ... awesome work....

Ive a couple of questions to try to optimise my usage of it under Mac OS X

a) Does anyone have this working under Mac OS X using Wine?
Ive tried to create a wine bottler install, which works well except the function keys and cursor keys don't work, any ideas?

b) It runs perfectly under VMWare Fusion if I run it on the virtual C drive, but if I try to run it on a shared drive - I get 'can't run off a networked drive'
(Id like to run it here, so that I can just run it directly from OS X, and also so that the files are directly on my mac drive to import into other VSTs etc)

c) are there any tutorials/help docs? I understand most of it now, but theres a few functions I don't know what they do... and a few things Im a bit stumped on. Im sure pretty basic, but its new to me

d) is there a way to save the wavetables files as 'RAW', i.e. without the wav headers?

thanks again for a great program, and if anyone has some tips on running it under a VM on the Mac, would love to hear them
thanks
Mark

Ah too late to help you out as I spent too long downloading to check it was indeed 2.6 and the ancient system here had some hiccups. But for anyone else wondering sometime later on the latest version should be i n the most current signature of its maker, blacktomcat666.

a small bump on this... as per my last post, anyone know of how to run this under Mac OSX or using it using Wine (with bottler), it kind of works but the shortcut keys don't work, which for me a big part of a fast workflow.

You have two options:
1. Running Parallels desktop, which will run Windows in a virtual machine - http://www.parallels.com/landingpage/pd ... GwodumMCAA
2. Better way is using Boot camp, and install a real Windows OS. Con is that you will have to boot to Windows to run Windows applications, and then leave and boot to Mac OS to run OS X applications. But this way you will have the best of both worlds.

Thanks... yeah, I have no issue running it, I can run it under VMWare.
but using a virtual machines means loading the entire OS, which is a bit slow to just knock out a couple of wavetables.

Where as Wine allows you to run it in an emulated windows environment i.e. the entire OS is not required, using WineBottler makes it even easier, it kind of makes it like an application that can be run directly under OS X.
All of this works absolutely fine, except the keyboard shortcuts, which is a bit 'odd' since Wine is getting the keyboard input as you are able to input filenames etc...
I guess perhaps this is something better aimed at the Wine/Wine bottler community.

a) The problem with the shortcuts is that they are only an ugly hack, added at a later stage. They don't use the window message loop but the GetKeyState() function, which may be the reason for the problem when using wine.

b) I never took into account the situation that this program would run in a VM on a shared drive. The program builds it's own folder structure and does automatic file sorting depending on the file type. This doesn't work correctly when AT is started within a zip - folder or from a network share (the latter would work but take ages). It's not possible for AT to distinguish network shares and virtual shares on the same physical machine. It's possible to move the sound file folders to a new location using UTILITY -> PATHS -> SET, but this also works only for local drives / folders.

c) Here' s a short explanation at least for KTERM: http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic ... 5#p5891515

But feel free to ask, here or using pm / mail.

d) Saving RAW files ( = only data without headers) isn't possible, because the header data are used to determine what type of file and wavetable format is used. This is important since there are formats with the same extension but different / incompatible logic structure. Without header it would be impossible for AT to decide wether a file is in a certain format or completely wrong or damaged.
