Is there a plugin that will automatically capture multiple notes of a VSTi instrument and send the output to different files?
I believe Chainer does this, but Chainer is so much more than I need right now. I want to specify the notes to be captured, the duration, the output folder. Hopefully, the output filenames will be something like F#3.wav. I remember this topic discussed a few months ago, but my search only turned up Chainer. Anyone? Thanks in advance, YBaCuO | |

Hmm... I think I will pester jorgen to include something like this in energyXT! Good idea, YBaCuO! | |

Are you adverse to entering in your desired notes and lengths into a piano roll, then bouncing down? Once this is done, you can use a great utility called WaveKnife (http://www.spacetaxi.de/sf/waveknife.html) to slice it up into seperate files, automatically stripping out the silence at the beginning and end of each note. I save this sampler "profile" to use whenever I wish to build sample based instruments. I use it all of the time and it's a pretty quick and painless process.

pure-data can do this. install the vst~ external, use makenote to send the notes in order...and the soundfile write feature to open and close a new file for each one... | |

pure-date seems a little too much to learn (which can be found here http://www.pure-data.org/about/ an alternative audio processing environment).
Tronam, thanks for the waveknife tip. I'm already doing something similar, except cutting up the wav files by hand, so this should save some time. But maybe I should email jorgen. EnergyXT seems so useful anyway, and a feature to automatically slice and dice would make it a must buy for me. Thanks everyone. YBaCuO |
