WebsterAudio announced the immediate availability of SampleMove, a new utility that allows a musician/producer to transfer, or "move" the patches/samples from any MIDI equipped keyboard, module or sampler to his/her hardware or software sampler. SampleMove gives the user the ability to consolidate all the sounds in all the user's equipment onto a laptop computer (using Giga, Halion, EXS24), or into a conventional sampler.

SampleMove allows you to select the patches/sounds to be transferred, the interval between samples, the duration of each sample, as well as the velocity. You just connect your sampler to your computer's audio input, select the sounds to be transferred, select the drive to save them to, press record, and go have dinner. Each sound/patch is saved in it's own folder on the selected drive. The folder is named the same as the patch/sound name, making browsing for sounds easy. The actual .WAV or .AIFF files are saved with the note name and octave embedded within the file name, which allows you to use the "auto-mapping" feature of most samplers to automatically load the sounds onto the right key. A future version will allow you to "export" the samples directly to your Akai/Kurzweil/Emu/Yamaha/Roland sampler.

Any user with a sampler (hardware or software) capable of reading/loading .WAV/.AIFF can use SampleMove to transfer all of their favorite sounds onto a laptop or hardware sampler.

Requirements:
