Introduction

Welcome to the world of computer audio production! The Wav DJ will allow you to explore your

audio creativity without the inconvenience of over-complicated features or a confusing interface.

You can create almost anything with the Wav DJ. The basic functions let you play the role of a radio DJ.

You can real time mix a variety of sound sources such as a CD, General MIDI instruments generated

by the PC sound card, wav sound effects and your own voice. You can record all this as a high quality wav file.

When you get used to the real time functions you might want to experiment with the editing capabilities.

Using the Edit Screens you can produce a piece of music, add sound effects and change it as much as

you want to get it just right. You can alter melodies, rhythms, volumes and pans or change the

whole structure just like a record producer. When you have finished you can play the whole thing back,

sing along to it and record it as a wav file. The Wav DJ console is designed to work exclusively

with the Wav DJ software so that you can have the hands-on studio-feel right on your desktop.

The Wav DJ software is windows based giving you all the functions within one application.

The top part of the window contains the Control Panel. This section has the most common controls and

allows you to change between the different screens. There are four screens altogether, one for mixing,

one for sequencing (editing), one for changing the sound effects set-up and one for altering the styles.

Each screen has its own chapter in the manual. If you are new to audio applications you will find that

everything is very easy to learn. Try experimenting with the Mixer applications and you’ll find that you will be

producing professional sounding audio in no time. Let your imagination flow and have fun!

Set-up and Installation

Leads

Connect the Wav DJ console to the PC with the leads provided before you start up the

computer. There are two sets of leads that need to be connected to the PC before you

turn the power on.

Lead A is the power and communication lead. Lead B is the audio connection lead.

Lead A connects to the rear of the Wav DJ console at the opening with the sliding door.

Lift up the door and insert the modular jack with the release tab facing upwards as shown.

Lead A

The other end of lead A has two connectors attached to it. The PS/2 connector goes into

the keyboard port. This connector is double ended. The front part with the longer metal

casing goes into the PC. You can re-plug the keyboard into the rear of the connector as

shown. Be careful to line up the pins on the lead with the holes in the socket and do not

force the lead into place.

The larger connector on the PC end of lead A goes into the Com port. Push it in gently

and secure it with the screw pegs.

Lead B connects to the rear of the Wav DJ console. Match the colors of the connectors

to the colors of the ports: Mic = red, Line In = blue, Audio = green. The other end of

lead B connects to the computer sound card. The red lead connects to the microphone-in,

the blue lead connects to the Line In and the green lead connects to the audio out.

Headset Connections

The Wav DJ headset combines high quality headphones with a convenient hands-free

microphone on a moveable stem. There are two connectors attached to the headset lead

that connect to the side of the console. The red connector goes to the port marked

"Mic 1". The green connector goes to the port marked "Audio Out 1".If you do not want

to use the headphones you can connect the Audio Out socket to external speakers like

PC multimedia speakers.

Additional Connections

There are some extra ports on the side of the console for optional external devices.

If you have another set of headphones and a microphone you can connect these to the

ports marked "Audio Out 2" and "Mic 2". A second microphone is very useful for

recording interviews.

The Line In connector on the side of the Wav DJ console can be used for an external audio source that has a Line Out

on it, like an MP3 player. Make sure that you purchase the correct stereo connection lead if one does not come with

the player.

Installation Procedure

Before you install or run the Wav DJ program we recommend that you set your computer display to a resolution of

at least 800 x 600 and at least 16 bit color. Click the right mouse button on the desktop and select "Properties".

Click the "Settings" tab and you will find the screen resolution and color options.

Insert the CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive. The installation should start automatically but if it does not, double

click the setup.exe file in the CD-ROM folder. The onscreen instructions will take you through the rest of the set-up.

The installation process will put a shortcut in your Startup Menu. Before you start the program make sure that the

console is correctly connected and is turned on. If it is not then you will get the message "Cable Error or Console

Not Ready". If the console is plugged in, check the connections and unplug the modular jack and plug it back in to

reset the console. Turn the console on and click the OK button on the error message.

The Wav DJ software requires DirectX 8.0 in order to run properly. DirectX is included in the installation

process but if you want to get the full version visit the Microsoft web site at www.microsoft.com/directx

Safety Precautions

Although the Wav DJ console uses relatively low power, caution should be taken as with all electrical appliances. Do not

spill liquids on the console.

Do not let a young child play with the headset. The soft covering for the microphone could be harmful if swallowed.

To avoid hearing damage do not use headphones at very high volumes.

The Console Interface: An Overview

The Wav DJ console provides you with all the buttons and controls you need to have complete control over all of the

Wav DJ software’s functions. These controls are arranged in groups according to their functions.

Many of the buttons have different functions depending on which screen is currently active. Look at the chapters on the

different screens to find out more information.

510 9

1. Wav Effects Buttons

These control the wav sound effects. Holding a button down for a short while will change the sound effects group.

Pressing and releasing the button will trigger playback of the sound effect currently assigned to that button.

2. Keyboard Instrument Buttons

You can decide which General MIDI instrument you want to play on the keyboard by pressing the buttons marked

Channel (1 to 16). The instruments assigned to channels 1 to 16 depend on the current Style List. See Chapter 6 for more

information about the Styles.

The FX button assigns the last wav sound effect that was played to the keyboard so that it can be triggered by the keyboard keys.

The Silence/Delete button will send a command to stop any wav file playback. It is also used while editing to delete a note

or insert a silence command. (See Chapter 7.)

3. Effects Wheel and Switch

The effects wheel has two functions depending on the position of the switch. In the Scratch position the wheel will trigger

the playback of a record scratch sound. In the Pitch Bend mode the wheel will send MIDI pitch bend messages that affect

the pitch of the General MIDI instrument note being played on the keyboard. Play a note and hold it and then move the

wheel to see what happens. The pitch bend effect works best on instruments with a long sustain, like string instruments.

4. The LCD Screen

The screen gives a graphic depiction of the state of the mixer and master volume controls. It also shows the how long the

Wav DJ console has been running. Remember to take regular breaks while working at a computer for any length of time.

5. Transport Controls

The buttons here are mainly used during editing. They also control wav file and song playback and wav file recording.

See the chapters on the Mixer and Edit windows for more details.

6. Mixer and Volume Controls

The large volume knob controls the master volume level of any sound produced by the Wav DJ. The mixer sliders control

the volume of the different sound sources. The track buttons underneath the sliders turn the sound output of those sources

on and off. The light behind the buttons lights up to indicate that the track is on.

7. Power Button

The console is turned on and off using this button.

8. Piano Keyboard and Octave Slider

The piano keyboard allows you to play one of the General MIDI instruments. Although the keyboard has only 17 keys you

can access the full range of MIDI notes by sliding the octave slider on the front of the console. Some notes will overlap in

different octave settings.

9. Style and Rhythm Controls

You can change the Style by pressing one of the 12 style buttons. A style is made up of a group of 16 General MIDI

instruments (assigned to the Keyboard Instrument Buttons), and 6 pre-set rhythms. A rhythm is a small drum loop. These

are started and stopped by pressing one of the numbered rhythm buttons. The speed of the song or rhythm can be altered

using the tempo buttons. If you use a rhythm button in the Edit window then you will paste a rhythm into the block you are

editing.

10. File and Edit Buttons

The file buttons affect different file types depending on the currently active screen. The edit buttons are used during song editing.

11. Cursor Control Buttons

These buttons are an easy to use alternative to the mouse. All of the screens require the use of the mouse cursor.

12. Drum Buttons

The drum buttons trigger the most commonly used General MIDI drum sounds.

Chapter 3

The Control Panel

All of the screens in the Wav DJ software share a common control panel that sits at the top of the window. This panel

contains the buttons that allow you to navigate through the screens. It also contains buttons that are common to all the

different screens. The control panel buttons are activated by clicking the left mouse button (or console equivalent),

on them.

1. This indicates the sound effects group that has been selected.

2. The Export as Wav button will convert the song format into a wav file. The process works in real time so you can listen

to the song as it is converted into a wav file. A song must be loaded before you can use this function. When you click

this button you will be asked to give the wav file a name.

NOTE: You can also convert the song into a wav file using the Mixer screen. However, the Export as Wav button allows

you to convert the song only, without recording any of the other sound sources at the same time.

3. This shows the song playback time.
