Audio Convert
Before using the sound generator, you need to use ffmpeg or Format Factory to convert the audio file to a file that meets the following requirements:
- File Format: WAV
- Codec：PCM (If there is no such option, it is usually PCM)
- Channels：2
- Sample Rate：8000 ~ 48000 Hz
- Bit Depth：16 bits
After converting, import it to the Gigavolt Memory Bank.
💡 If errors occupies when entering worlds.
This is because other elements on ports have not been initialized, and this cause the sound generator receives 0V input. Or because the memory bank has not been initialized, then the sound generator try to read it but failed.
The correct solution is to set the input voltage of the backend to 0V before exiting the world, and then set it again when you need to play.
