NAME
       wavetral	- Convert between single cycle waveforms and spectra

SYNOPSIS
	wavetral [-h]
	wavetral [-v]
	wavetral [-l input_file]
	wavetral [-i input_file] [-f input_format] [-t input_type]
	[-w input_wave_number] [-o output_file]	[-F output_format]
	[-T output_type] [-W output_wave_number] [-s output_size]
	[-r output_samplerate] [-z zero_threshold]

DESCRIPTION
       Wavetral	is a small program to convert single cycle waveforms to	audio
       spectra and vice	versa. It supports multiple input and output formats
       to allow	you to use your	favourite waveforms in different synthesizers.

       Currently there is specific support for Csound, Yoshimi and the Waldorf
       Microwave II/XT,	as well	as any other synthesizer that can import
       waveforms as audio or plaintext.

OPTIONS
   INFORMATION OPTIONS
       -h --help
	      Show a help message, listing all options

       -v --version
	      Show the version of wavetral

       -l --list input_file
	      List  the	 items	(waveforms or spectra) in the given input file
	      (currently only supported	with the mw2 Microwave II/XT format)

   CONVERSION OPTIONS
       -i --input input_file
	      Name of the input	file

       -f --input_format format
	      Format of	the input file (only necessary if the  format  is  not
	      autodetected).   Supported  formats are: audio (.wav and .aiff),
	      text (one	value  per  line),  ftable  (Csound  ftsave(k)	format
	      ftables) and mw2 (Waldorf	Microwave II/XT	wave dump)

       -t --input_type type
	      Type  of	the  input  (wave  or  harm)  for waveform or harmonic
	      spectrum respectively. This is only required for text and	Csound
	      ftable files.

       -w --input_wave wave_number
	      Number of	the waveform to	be converted (only supported  for  the
	      Waldorf Microwave	II/XT mw2 format)

       -o --output output_file
	      File to write the	converted wave/spectrum	to.

       -F --output_format format
	      Format  of  the  output  (only  required	if  not	autodetected).
	      Currently	supported formats are: audio (.wav  and	 .aiff),  text
	      (one  value  per	line),	ysc  (Yoshimi script) and mw2 (Waldorf
	      Microwave	II/XT wave dump). Yoshimi scripts can be  run  locally
	      (using  runlocal)	 in the	wave context of	the AddSynth voices or
	      the PadSynth.

       -T --output_type	type
	      Type of the output (wave	or  harm)  for	waveform  or  harmonic
	      spectrum respectively. This is only required for text files.

       -W --output_wave	wave_number
	      Wave  number  to	be  written  (only  supported  for the Waldorf
	      Microwave	II/XT mw2 format)

       -s --output_size	size
	      The number of samples or harmonics to be written to  the	output
	      file.

       -r --samplerate samplerate
	      Samplerate  of  the  output  file	 (only supported for the audio
	      format, the default is 44100).

       -z --threshold
	      Threshold	at which harmonics should be set to  0	(default  1  *
	      10(-5) or	0.00001)

BUGS
       There  are  currently  no  known	 bugs.	If  you	discover a bug,	please
       contact the autho at jeanette@juliencoder.de.
