How to import wavetables into Disting EX
Expert SleepersEurorack / modularVerified
Disting EX from Expert Sleepers imports wavetables like this: serum-format native; 2,048-sample auto-detection from SD.
This guide gives the exact layout Disting EX expects, the step-by-step load, the Hyperwave export settings that match, and plain fixes for the import failures the documentation warns about.

What Disting EX expects
Wavetable algorithms support 16-bit (24-bit since firmware 1.3) and 32-bit float (firmware 1.6.1+) WAVs — no 32-bit integer support is documented; single-file wavetables default to a 2,048-sample wavelength when the file is a multiple of 2,048 — Serum-format wavetables are natively supported. Folders of single-cycle WAVs are discovered automatically; playlists optionally order them, and the -wavelength playlist setting (default 600) applies when a file isn't a multiple of 2,048.
Step by step
- Export from Hyperwave as a packed mono WAV at 2,048 samples per frame.
- Copy the WAV to the Disting EX's SD card.
- Load it in a wavetable algorithm; adjust the wavelength playlist setting if needed.
Export settings for Disting EX
Disting EX 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
