In this dialog page use the third control button [CREATE], to prompt the
following display message:
Enter Name for new Sound-Bank:

The name assignment works exactly the same way as with soundnames. That's
why
we can skip repeating the resulting explanations. you can leave this menu by
using the [ENTER]-button.
As this moment the Spectralis has not created a new soundbank yet. In order to
write the soundbank to flashrom, you will need to store at least one sound in this new
bank. That's why after setting a bankname the already familiar dialog for the setting
of the Sound storage slot will appear. The set bankname is already selected. You
may now store the current sound into an empty slot of this new bank. Once you have
completed the saving process of the new sound, the new bank will be created as a
file in flash rom. You can verify the save process on your connected computer or
with the help of the browse-function in the Spectralis. The soundbanks have the file
extension *SSB.
5.2 Using your own samples
The Spectralis allows to import your own samples into the DSP sound engine.
Samples must be saved in a special format in order to be accepted by the
Spectralis. That maybe is annoying at the first seight - but you will realize very
soon, that the special Spectralis sample format has a lot of advantages compared
to the direct import of different sample formats and at the end, you will benefit
from our sample format.
The Spectralis ships with a little application called "SmplImp.exe" and can be
found on the Spectralis CDR, that ships with the Spectralis. The latest version
can always be found at our Spectralis User Forum - so you may want to check
from time to time, whether there is a new version available supporting more
sample formats. So far, this application is only available for the PC but we
promise to publish a MAC version soon.
What does this program do?
1.) Every sample you import, will get an unique identifier. This identifier is
necessary to allow the Spectralis to identify samples even if there are multiple
samples with the same sample name inside your Sample-Sets. The patterns are
collecting the samples by using this identifier. It is not possible to get unexpected
results when loading an additional Sample-Set with similar sample names.
2.) Each sample or multisample will be associated to a category and subcategory.
That makes it very easy tolocate the sample even if you have thousands of
them loaded into the Spectralis memory. The category system is also nice to
