Party Favor is a WTPA software utility. Party Favor is a software application designed to work with the Where's The Party At (WTPA) bendable 8-bit sampler. It allows you to more easily record audio samples from your computer to the WTPA, and also allows for easier control and visualization of its many effect and editing functions.

Party Favor Features:
1. Easily send samples to the WTPA, with automated record feature and level control - just a drag a sample onto Biggie
2. Play the WTPA using your QWERTY keyboard, while at the same time triggering effects and editing the sample with your mouse
3. Trigger and control WTPA effectts on screen - no more button pushes to remember
4. Edit the WTPA sample using on screen controls
5. Visualize how you are editing the WTPA sample with on screen waveform representations
6. Control both A and B banks of the WTPA

Requirements:
* WTPA 1.0x sampler, with Rev3 firmware
* Macintosh (10.4.9 - 10.6.x) or Windows (XP SP2, Vista, Win 7)
* MIDI interface from your computer to your WTPA
* Audio connection from your computer to WTPA audio input

Installation for Windows:
Unzip the downloaded .zip file. Extract the enclosed folder to your hard
drive (usually Program Files folder), being sure to keep all files/folders within that main
folder. Double click the Party Favor.exe file to start the program. You can trash the
original .zip file if you like.

Instructions for Use:
Using Party Favor is pretty easy and intuitive:
1. Make sure the Power button is on (speaker icon to the left of Party Favor text - orange is on). Adjust your audio output device preferences in the Prefs+ tab.
2. Set your MIDI output device.
3. Set the MIDI channel for the bank (either A or B).
4. Set your desired default recording note by clicking on the virtual keyboard in the Record section.
5. Drop a sample onto Biggie's (the Notorious B.I.G.) face! (you can adjust the output level with the slider to the left of Biggie).
6. Recording will automatically start and stop so that you capture the whole sample.
7. You can also record manually - just click the Record button, and the WTPA will start recording whatever audio you send to it. Likewise, to start overdubbing, just click the Overdub button. To stop, click the Record or Overdub button again.
8. Press one of the keys on your keyboard that correspond to the note you want to play as represented on the keyboard in the Playback section. To shift up or down an octave, press the right or left arrow keys on your computer keyboard, respectively. You
can choose One Shot mode to play the sample just once, or Loop mode, to play the sample over and over while a key continues to be pressed down.
9. While the sample is playing, you can invoke one or more of the WTPA effects in the Effects section - please refer to the WTPA manual for information on these. To cancel effects (except for Realtime mode), click the Cancel All Effects button.
10.You can also edit the sample start and end points using the Start, End and Window controls in the Sample Edit section. If you dropped a sample onto Biggie and used the auto-Record feature, the waveform will be shown below, and will highlight in blue the
portion of the original sample that will be played back by the WTPA. Please refer to the WTPA manual for details on the differences between Resolute and Wide controls. To revert to playing back the full sample, click the Full Sample button.
11. The Prefs+ tab allows you to specify details about the output audio device. It also displays information about the software, including links to its home page, as well as that of the WTPA.
