chromatic notes

Hi,

First of all bravo for this amazing powerful tool !
I'm a music composer. Creating samples requires a large amount of audio files to be renamed to be understood by the sampler.
a typical basic is to name all the notes from the keyboard from C-1 to C8. [C-1 stands for C"negative"1]
with notes beeing : C D E F G H.
A typical sequence of samples could look like :
sample C-1
sample C#-1
sample D-1
sample D#-1
sample E-1
sample F-1
sample F#-1
sample G-1
sample G#-1
sample H-1
sample C0
sample C#0
[---]
sample A#7
sample H7
sample C8

It would be amazing be able to select a list of files ordered by numbers from 000...100
and convert all numbers to a chromatic scale by selecting a note start or a note end.
For example it could be in the NUMBERING / type = music notes :D ?
Thanks

Hi

Hi thank you so much for offering! Please yes I would really appreciate the refund.
Sorry for not realizing fast enough that javascript was only for licensed users :oops:

Here is the code I use.
Code: Select all
var notes=["c","c#","d","d#","e","f","f#","g","g#","a","a#"];
var base=notes.indexOf("c");
var pos=base+counter-0;
var idx=pos%notes.length;
var oct=0+Math.floor(pos/notes.length);
newName=name+"_"+notes[idx]+oct;


By changing "c" to another letter in the second line I can can specify the name of the first note of the serie.
By changing the "0" of the 5th line I can specify what octave that first note starts on and all other files will follow the order correctly.
