Xtractpler - Multi-Velocity Sample Extractor

The most affordable and easiest way to extract audio samples from any VST/AAX/AU plugin, MIDI capable module/synthesizer or acoustics instruments or even vocals (by using Mic) and generate multi-velocity sliced audio WAV files.

Latest Version includes:

• Round Robin feature.

Xtractpler is a configurable automated audio capture application that records the audio either from audio output from MIDI devices or VST/AAX/AU plugins/apps by triggering MIDI notes at multi-velocity levels or by external/internal audio sources like anything coming to the system Mic or Audio-Input port and generate sliced audio WAV files for their use in any other sampler, looper or e-drum modules that support user-generated audio content or samples.

Usages:

• Extract audio from VST/AAX/AU and use the generated sliced audio files in other samplers, e-drum modules.
• Create sounds banks or libraries from capturing audio from different sources, including from Mic, audio-input or MIDI devices.
• Reduce speeches interval silences between spoken phrases ideal for podcast or videos.
• Resampling of drum layered kits by unifying two layers samples into single one, like for instance for Alesis Strike Pro or Multi-Pad/SamplePad products where memory Kit is limited.

Features:

• Works for Windows and Mac computers (currently on M1/M2 chipset, version published here it's not compatible with Intel chipset). For Intel version, please contact us at: info@xtractpler.com.
• Offers forth modes of audio capture: Drum for sounds less than 15 seconds of decay; Sound for sounds of up to 100 seconds of decay, like drones or strings; Live for capturing live performance from acoustics instruments or vocals up to 180 seconds or Speech up to 210 seconds of recording from either Mic or audio-input.
• Doesn't require any DAW to run.
• Configurable to send MIDI notes as per VST/AAX/AU requirement. No limited to certain VSTs.
• Automates samples trimming and conversion (i.e. mono, sampling frequency, bit rate and what velocity curve to use: Linear, Exponential or Logarithmical).
• Normalises audio [-3db to -15db] on output files.
• Selectable per sample Fade-Out value from 0 to 2000ms (2 secs).
• Selectable per sample Silence dB Threshold (-72dB to -96dB).
• Store generated multi-samples into grouped configurable name folders.
• Live Audio Monitoring.
• Up to four (4) Round Robin sample sets.

Special note for Mac Users:

Due to limitations on Mac computers on audio routing, it requires the installation of free third-party MacOS extension like BlackHole (https://existential.audio/blackhole/) or SoundFlower or VB Cable for internal audio routing.

Special note for Windows Users:

Due to limitations on Windows computers on MIDI internal routing, it requires to install a free third-party MIDI internal routing device like: LoopMIDI (http://www.tobias-erichsen.de/software/loopmidi.html) or LoopBe (https://www.nerds.de/en/loopbe1.html) or MIDI Yoke (http://www.midiox.com/index.htm?http://www.midiox.com/myoke.htm).

For Audio in Windows, make sure to enable the Windows Stereo Mix device as Audio Input. For more information refers to these links:
