Importing MANY Samples into MANY presets

Post by grimepoch »

Hey everyone! I have a disk full of WAV files, and I'd like to convert ALL of them to presets. Each is a single file that I'd like to just put unpitched on middle-C. Is this possible? I'd really hate to have to bring each on in and fill up the sound bank with it.

Thanks!

Sounds like a job for QuickKeys. Setup your proceedure and run the script.

I don't think there's a real easy way. I've never made multiple presets with single samples, but you might be able to set up the presets in the machfive sounds' soundbank folder to expidite getting the samples in to the presets. I'll try it today and repost.

To be clear:

1 - Create files manually in the preset folder folder
2 - Select presets, drag and drop samples into selected presets, edit and resave.

Hope that helps.
