Converting MicroWave Sounds

The MicroWave II/XT/XTk can also use Sound and Multi programs made for the first

MicroWave. It has a built-in converting feature to import these programs via MIDI dump.

Currently only the conversion of single sound programs is supported.

The MicroWave II/XT/XTk identifies such data by its model ID defined in the Sysex header.

Although conversion takes place automatically, there are some points you should keep in

mind:

• A converted program may not sound exactly the same as played in an original

MicroWave. Since the first MicroWave uses analog circuits, which may differ from

device to device, its impossible to make programs sound exactly the same.

• The MicroWave II/XT/XTk uses a Modulation Matrix with 16 slots. Theoretically, it

is possible that an "old" program uses more modulation assignments so that some

entries would get lost. Actually, there is only a little chance to get into trouble.

• The Filter Envelope of the MicroWave II/XT/XTk has no delay parameter. When an

imported program uses a delay setting other than

for this envelope, the

MicroWave II/XT/XTk will setup the Modifier Delay unit to handle this situation.

• The converted sound will reside in the current edit buffer, so it needs to be stored

manually.
