How to import wavetables into DUNE 3

What DUNE 3 expects

Wavetable Editor imports WAV with 2,048 samples per waveform — a packed file loads frame-per-waveform via Import WAV (Adjust Wavetable), up to 256 waveforms; drag-and-drop onto the wavetable display since v3.6. Exports as WAV or DUNE's own WT format.

Step by step

1. Export from Hyperwave as a packed mono WAV at 2,048 samples per frame with up to 256 frames.
2. Set an oscillator to Wavetable (WT) mode and open the Wavetable Editor with the EDIT button.
3. Choose Menu → Import WAV (Adjust Wavetable) — DUNE 3 derives the frame count from the file length, one waveform per 2,048 samples.
4. Alternatively, drag the WAV directly onto the wavetable display (DUNE 3 v3.6 and later).

If something goes wrong

My packed WAV loaded squashed or stretched in DUNE 3.

Import WAV (Fit To Wavetable) squeezes the file into the existing number of waveforms instead of mapping it frame by frame. Use Import WAV (Adjust Wavetable) for packed tables.

Export settings for DUNE 3

DUNE 3 has no dedicated export preset in Hyperwave — the default preset ("Default — 2048 × 256") writes 2,048 samples per frame, 256 frames, mono 32-bit float, and matches the layout documented above.

Default — 2048 × 256

2,048 samples per frame × 256 frames · 32-bit float · 48 kHz
