custom voices on YEM : sample sound added crashes

Hi,

first of all, I wish you all my best wishes for this new year.

I'm on iMac Catalina, and YEM is working pretty well.
No problems creating normal voices.
I recovered sounds that I had (AIFF), and turned them into wave 16 bits, 41 KHz 44,1 KHz. It works fine with YEM and normal voice/Drum voice.

BUT... (there is always a "but"....) when I want to create a custom voice... it doesn't work.

I can create a custom voice and edit it, but when I want to add a sample, the sound crash while the same sample works when I create a normal voice.

moreover, when I want to add a sound (with the plus key in the element column or via the plus key in "wave assign") nothing is displayed on the screen.
When I press "add", a user waves window opens, but it is empty and the only thing you can do is press the "cancel" button (see photo 1 and 2).

I think the sounds should be in the right format because it works when I use them when I create a "normal voice".

Several questions :
Is this a bug ?
Am I stupid ?
Maybe a bit of both. ;D

I created superb voices (superb for me). Well, I didn't do anything or almost.. I only sampled the voices one by one, each note, while playing them in Logic pro.
it's a tedious process to enter the notes one by one in yem, but it works. That's cool.

so I wanted to use the Tutti Genos sound (in strings P6) in order to add the choirs in elements 6 (the first 5 elements are used in Tutti sound) and thus "gain" a voice on the 3 of the Genos.
But it was impossible to do. I've tried with other voices, other sound format, nothing works.

As I can't access to the "wave user" window (see pictures), I add sounds in YEM by dragging and dropping wave files, and it works fine.
But impossible to do with custom voices... so bad !... :-[

If anyone's got an idea...

EDIT : I think it works... I did not understand that it was necessary to load the voices before into the Genos via YEM, I thought it was automatic... (Mac user...).
so choice number two: I'm stupid... ;D

So I added photo 3...

I leave the message. Maybe it can be useful for someone as stupid as me... ;D

To add User Waw you must first add them to YEM. Look at the picture and you will understand where to start (1). Eventually you have Wav / Aiff in Yem (yellow marked) and then you can add them to your Voice.

WAV 16 bit 41 Khz,  must that not be  WAV 16 bit  "44,1" Khz ??

Yes, 44,1 KHz of course. Typo.
corrected.

@ckobu :Thanks for your answer and picture.

When I build a new normal voice with YEM, I can Drag and Drop Wave files (even AIFF files) from the desktop, and I thought it was the same with custom voices... it would have made sense for YEM to take care of this on its own, as it does for normal voice...

Now I can play Carmina Burana !... and as we say in France : "un régal !..."... ;)

Too bad we can not assign split zones for Right 1 and Right 2... :(
