Unity note |
Indicates the MIDI note that will cause a sampler to play the sound file at the pitch (sample rate) it was originally recorded. Click the down arrow | ||||||||
|
Fine tune |
Allows you to pitch shift the unity note up from 0 to 99.999 cents. Sound Forge software does not fine-tune the sound file when fine tuning is used, and not all samplers support the setting. This option is an informational setting that will be transmitted to a sampler via a sample-transfer procedure. A sampler such as the K2000 can use this information to play back the sample. The K2000 should accurately display this information on the Master/Sample/Misc. page as Pitch Adjust. | ||||||||

SMPTE format |
Indicates the time format if a SMPTE offset exists for the file. Click the down arrow | ||||||||
|
SMPTE offset |
Indicates whether a SMPTE time offset has been set for the file. Sound Forge software ignores this offset value, and not all samplers can store a SMPTE offset value in the sample. |
