Hi. I hope I can explain.
Loops are markers that allow appropriate
software to keep sounding a note (recorded sample) played
digitally on a MIDI keyboard for as long as the note is held
down even though the recorded sample may be of only a few
seconds' duration. The release marker is placed in the point where the note is released in the actual recorded sample and where the sounds starts to fade away. The software needs to know that moment especially if there are multiple releases available for that note that would represent "staccato", "portato" and longer held notes. This exercise renders more realism when recorded samples are played from a "sampleset" loaded in software like jOrgan, GrandOrgue and Hauptwerk. Picture (42kB): https://mega.nz/#!dQIwkDKI!QlrmlYHywFqpG9ujJfJLBm_1skxaYz88AJJJy4Euxs0In the example demonstated there is no release marker as the "tail" of the waveform was removed and saved as a separate file. So the end of a loops would be the release marker in such instances. Clearly from this picture loops and
markers were not retained in the merger using sox though the
exercise was purely a simple exercise without any frills of
extra codes. Regards Mark On 08/12/2016 08:12, Jan Stary wrote:
I hope that loops and markers (cues) are not erased in the process!!!I think you need to explain what you mean by that. I would expect audio files processed by sox to contain just audio data; I don't understand how one could contain loop or marker information, and therefore I also don't understand how you could possibly expect sox to conserve such information.Some handheld recorders, for example, allow for saving "markers" in the file. This is not inbetween the samples, obviously; these are saved in the header. A typical application of that is e.g. a journalist marking "next question" or a field recording marking "next song". I have a ZOOM H1 recorder and a Microtrack II recorder which do that. I believe SoX does preserve that information in the audio header, but it's been a long time I checked so I am not sure. What Mark has seem to be sampled trumpet notes, so I don't know what kind of markers would that use and why, but let's see what he reports.
