Make your own Wavetables?

Brilliant starter pack - thank you very much - just starting to scratch the surface.
As I'm wont to do, I start diving in and say: "But how can I make my own????"
I don't want to buy Serum so I found this: https://synthtech.com/waveedit (Free software!!!!)
I've done some basic tests and brought some of what it made into Deluge...it works!!!! Some of it sounds squirrelly but I think I haven't set everything up right yet. It seems very easy to use. (Before trying this I tried Audacity and Reason but those don't help make wavetables very easily at all..you need something specific to wavetable drawing and export).
This WaveEdit also has a page with tons of wavetables - a few of which I've tested and work on Deluge. This is awesome! So many "oscillators" to play with now! https://waveeditonline.com/

Here's what the simple but powerful UI looks like:

    I have modified every single WaveEditOnline wavetable, adding a "clm" tag = 256, and breaking them up into subdirectories (it appears the Deluge chokes on directories with more than 117 items in them). But it's clear that the wavetables are wrong; there are lots of clipped high frequencies, indicating that the Deluge doesn't know how to cut the waves into 256-byte chunks. Any help? They're 16-bit signed integer PCM, mono.

    Hi folks, I found this thread and thought I may ask my question here:

    How the hell can I export a wavetable from Waveedit to the Deluge? For terminology: a "wavetable" is the whole set of 64 "Waveshapes" on the left of WaveEdit "Waveform editor" page? Am I right? So how can I export those 64 Waveshapes as one single wavetable that will be available in Deluge? I tried with "save as" etc. but when using it in Deluge, I don't really hear any changes when I scroll thru the wavetable. I am a bit lost with this software as I also could not find a manual for it. If you know where to find it, fell free to share a link.

    Thanks!

    WAVEEDIT uses a wave table of 256 samples, while Deluge uses 2048 samples by default. Therefore, try using a waveform editor(Audacity's "Change Speed" function is recommended) to stretch the WAV file to 8 times its length while preserving its pitch.

    I created a tool that modifies the header (clm chunk) of the wav files from WAVEEDIT to enable their import into Deluge.
    Try selecting "256 samples" and upload your wavetable .wav file (bank file).

    Cool thanks for sharing! Do is till have to do the time stretching before or after that?

    You don't need to stretch it. Simply upload the WaveEdit bank file (.wav file) as it is.

    I gave it a try today and it seems to work! great! thank you very much. would it be possible to share s R script or anything like that so that I could also do the file manipulation offline?

    Here is a JavaScript version of the app that can be used offline.
