- Description
- The TXW file format is associated with the Yamaha TX16W, a digital sampling keyboard produced in the late 1980s. These TXW files contain audio data that is specifically formatted for use with the TX16W sampler. Essentially, a TXW file stores a sample or a collection of samples, including their associated parameters such as loop points, velocity layers, and other settings that are necessary for the sampler to correctly playback the sounds. The format is proprietary to Yamaha.
- An MP3 file is an audio file saved in a compressed audio format developed by the Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) that uses "Layer 3" audio compression. It is commonly used to store music and audiobooks with near-CD quality sound (stereo, 16-bit) and roughly 1/10 the size of a .WAV or .AIF file.
