How do you make a new sound from scratch? I want to recreate this sound... https://youtu.be/0iFBXjRbVl0?t=10

I want to recreate their song using those tube sounds.

Suggestion:
-download or record the song;
-load in DAW;
-isolate the tubesound;
-make loop;
-save in ".wav";
-make an "Multipad Audio Link";
or :
save in MP3 and let play with audioplayer in Genos;
or:
load the isolated tube sound (in .wav") and import in YEM
and make sound for expansion memory

My wave doesn't show up anywhere?

It is 44100 16bit PCM. I used Reaper to create it.

In some YouTube videos they get a Wave Assign screen in YEM. I don't have a Wave Assign screen.

I have included the file, change the extension name from jpg to wav

Also when it does load will it map itself to all the keys?

First you should loop your .wav. After you've created an initial "Normal Voice" in YEM double click it. This takes you to the voice editor screen. Click the "+" button under "Wave Assign", this lets import your wave.

I thought I looped it. Maybe I don't know how to loop it.

Your wave sample does not currently include any loop points that Yamaha's arrangers recognise!

I used Wavosaur to add loop points to the sample, and imported it into a voice using YEM.  It then looped for as long as a key was held down.

Unfortunately, you will find that if you use the same sample for more than one note, the 'beat' will vary as well as the pitch, which presumably you do not want!

Ideally you would need a different sample for each note but all at the same 'beat', although you might be able to get away with using the same sample for say, three notes (its root note and 1 semitone above and below the root). The change in 'beat' might not be too noticeable, but you would have to be the judge of that!
