TUTORIAL - SAVING YOUR PATTERN AS A WAVE FILE
So, you've made this great loop with HammerHead and now you want to stream it to disk so you
can actually use it in your music?
|
1. |
First save your pattern if you haven't already, then open it again.
This is to avoid that the .wav file starts at the wrong position in case a part of the loop has been cached in your computer's memory.
|
2. |
To stream to disk, either press Ctrl-R or select File
--> Stream to Disk. The "Stream options" window will pop up.
Here you get to select which file type (WAV or RAW) you wish to stream to. WAV is probably the most common
choice, but if you intend to import your loop into the Userbank Creator (e.g. to use it as a breakbeat), you should
select RAW.
You also have to select if you want to stream the Whole session, Current measure or All measures.
- Whole session - This will record the entire session "live". Recording will start when you hit the Play
button and end when you press it again. Tempo and volume changes etc. will be saved to the wave (or raw) file.
- Current measure - This option will stream the active measure to disk.
- All measures - Choosing this option will stream all measures in your pattern to disk.

3. |
When you press OK a dialog window will appear where you get to specify a name for your
.wav or .raw file. When you press Save, your pattern will be streamed to disk, unless you chose Whole session
as stream type. In that case your pattern will be saved when you stop the playback as mentioned above.
The output file is a 16-bit, 44.1 kHz, mono file (wave or raw).
