Looking for a simple WAV player with multiple starting positions

I never used large vocal WAV files to add a layer to my VCV tune. But even this day has come… :nerd_face:

Could you please advise any module that allows using one large WAV file, allows marking multiple start points, and playing the next section on an incoming trigger?

cf Player is almost good but I have trouble finding the right start positions. I clearly would like to avoid chopping the large WAV into multiple files. And I’d like to keep the workflow completely in VCV.

you can try this one:

VCV Library - Sickozell keySampler might work for samples. There’s a few in that plugin sample related.

I use a bunch of Sickozell modules and I was eyeing with sickoSampler and sickoSampler2 but I couldn’t make it work the way I described. Is keySampler very different? Do you use any of these modules in this context?

I normally use a daw for this kind of task and route the audio to VCV for further processing.

I have not tried it yet, but maybe this also works for you:

Or the multi.

I’m only just learning it. I think it can load any sample into a slot and save slot and parameters such as start, and output to use, to a CV key. But I haven’t tried it polyphonic yet, or that much. I’m playing with drums at the moment.

You might like PHASE from my SignalFunctionSet plugin. It is a dual sample player with a few unique tricks. For your purpose specifically, it does support trigger in to advance the next cue point. Cue points read from WAV Cue points if present and automatically detects transients if not. Additionally, you have control over playback speed/direction, panning and more.

This one is an amazing module indeed! I’ve just started to experiment with it. Even if I fail with the vocal project, finding PHASE is a clear win… it is very nice!

(Although I’m still lost with using cue points.)

Lost how? Are you bringing your own in or using transient detection? Happy to help if I can.

wavbank by voxglitch may suit you as well

Play parts of a WAV.vcv (1.4 KB)

I wouldn’t call this a great solution by any stretch, but as long as the sections are less than ten seconds apiece, this could work.

Tuning the positions and lengths with the pair of sequencers will likely annoy you. But doable?

Depending on your desired goal, the 3rd and 4th STYLE settings might be more useful to you.

Hope that helps.
