Re: Repeater: WAV files as loops

I posted a message on the Electrix Repeater user-forum, asking if they had
any intentions of releasing any information about their proprietary files
(.ldf and .tdf). 

I suspect that if these specifications are opened up it would make it much
easier to accomplish importing, since these files 'bind' the WAVs to the
Repeater.

I also suspect a utility can be written in an evening that 'preps' normal
WAVs for use with the Repeater.

The response from an apparent Electrix employee was non-commital, of 
course.

I'm willing to start the reverse-engineering, I've simply been waiting for 
a
definitive answer from Electrix regarding opening their specifications, or
of course offering importing of WAVs (like the pre-release manual suggests)
in the next release.

I find it very strange that this feature existed (at least in the sense 
that
they documented it), but then prohibited it for release. I can't seem to
grok the reasoning from a business perspective either-- it would encourage
more use, and more sales.
