Help and Questions / Re: Loading in WAV files, how ...
Last post by Saga Musix - October 21, 2024, 10:04:36Generally in all formats but MOD, middle-C (C-5) will play the sample at the original sample rate (so 48000Hz in your example). With MOD that's not possible of course - middle-C will always be around 8287Hz (+/- finetune), and you won't be able to reach the original root note of the sample as it's way out of the Amiga frequency range.
My recommendation for preparing Amiga samples would be to have a separate module open in IT or MPTM format, load the sample there and use the built-in resampler to change the sample rate to a known compatible sample rate (e.g. 22168Hz for F-6 which is F-3 in ProTracker) and then copy the resampled sample over to the MOD file.
If you want to resample to note other than F-6, you can play a sample in the MOD file and look at the status bar in the sample editor: It will show you the effective sample rate of that note. Then you take that value and use it as the target frequency for the resampler.

QuoteIf you load too long samples, are they automatically assigned to another key?I'm not sure what you mean with this one. If the sample length exceeds the maximum supported by the MOD format, it will get truncated upon saving, so if you want to use the entire sample, you will have to manually slice it, unfortunately.

Last post by Saga Musix - October 21, 2024, 09:57:27Hi Magnar, long time no see The command you're looking for is called "Clear field and step", right now DEL is most likely bound to "Clear field" instead. The "IT Style" variations of those two commands also delete the instrument number when deleting a note.

Help and Questions / Pressing the DEL key does not ...
Last post by Magnar - October 21, 2024, 09:46:19Hi
When I press the DEL key to delete a note, the cursor stays on same position in the pattern after pressed. Is there a way to make it progress?
I have set "Edit step: 1", and if I enter a respective note-key instead of DEL-key, the cursor do proceed to next line in the pattern sheet.
Anyone know how to make the DEL-key behave as the value setting in the Edit step?

Last post by Magnar - October 21, 2024, 09:42:36I found out that there is a way to import keys. And then I tried out the "US_mpt-it2_classic.mkb" file from the C:\Program Files\OpenMPT\ExtraKeymaps.
Solved.

Help and Questions / Loading in WAV files, how do y...
Last post by Magnar - October 20, 2024, 23:23:19Hi,
By loading in a WAV, say it is a just a 48000hz 24bit WAV file. How do you control which root note it is assigned?
Say I would like it to be placed to PT2.3D F-3 note? No finetune etc.
If you load too long samples, are they automatically assigned to another key?

Help and Questions / Protracker Keyboard for notes
Last post by Magnar - October 20, 2024, 23:18:36Hi,
I would like to type the notes in Pattern-editor with "normal Protracker2.3D" keyboard-configuration for the "Virtual Piano". Example:
C-2 = q
C#2 = 2
D-2 = w
D#2 = 3
E-2 = e
F-2 = f
etc...
Is there an easy way of doing this (checkbox/radiobutton), or must I go to Setup, Keyboard, "Pattern Editor-Note Column" and manually change all the notes?
Cheers Magnar

Help and Questions / Re: Is multi-channel VST input...
Last post by chr15m - October 17, 2024, 11:37:26Donated, thanks!
This is indeed useful, thanks. I have done this before.
A bit more info about my use-cases for multi-channel audio into VSTs. I am using PdVST which allows me to embed the Pure Data patching environment inside OpenMPT. This is working great for single channel effects, and also for final mastering effects with all channels mixed together. I'd like to also be able to design the following kind of effects using PdVST:
* Effects that allow me to mix or choose between channels. For example two drum breaks coming in on two different stereo channels. On each beat I can subtly alter the mix between them to get an interesting dynamic sound where it's never playing exactly the same drum sound. I do this at the moment using one beat into each of the left and right channels and mixing to mono and it sounds cool. Would be great to support stereo.
* Effects which let one channel influence the sound of another. For example using one channel as a ring mod against the other channel, or vocode one channel against the other. Or using one channel to trigger gating on the other channel or set the envelope of the other channel based on the sound e.g. drum track's power envelope sets the volume of a synth sound to give it a rhythmic feeling. Can sort of do that with MIDI note triggers but can't do the ring mod of one sound into the other.
* Multi-channel mixing live. I can run all channels into one plugin and then change the mix of individual channels from there in real-time. Can also apply e.g. stutter effects or other custom effects/algorithms to only selected channels or whatever. At the moment you can have a "master" plugin but it receives all the channels mixed together so anything you do is applied to all of them.
Thanks again for your work on OpenMPT all these years!
Quote from: LPChip on October 10, 2024, 15:02:07Maybe its not the same, but you can create multiple instruments, and assign it to the same VSTi, but give each instrument a different midi channel.
