slib-sorter 1.6.7

A Python package for sorting Sample Libraries

Sample Library Sorter

*for now only meant to run on Windows10

This script allows you to quickly sort a massive amount of files, any kind you might find in your Sample Library as a Music Producer. For now, it will match after file name & type to the best of its abilitys. If you're curious about what it is matching the files against:

Look at this son of a book

This will yeild a pretty well sorted and catogorized Sample Library, Mostly depending on the randomness of the file names youre trying to sort.

Dependecies

Python, termcolor 2.3.0

Installation

from PyPI

py -m pip install --upgrade slib-sorter

from GitHub

git clone https://github.com/nrdrch/slib-sorter.git; python3 \slib-sorter\src\slib-sorter.py

Usage

If its the first time running or if the directories don't exist, it will create these on your desktop.

1. Copy all your files into the 'To Be Sorted' directory
2. Run the command again and wait for the process to be completed

Slib-Sorter

3. Inspect the newly created Sample Library

for other options look at:

Slib-Sorter -help

Note: Among other things, the names of these two directories & the name of the finished library can be changed in the settings file.

$home\Documents\slib-sorter\settings.json

config preview

or run this and it will open the settings file for you

Slib-Sorter -config

Future additions and improvements :bulb:

• Make any used path easier configurable by the user.
• Fix minor issues regarding time.
• Add further support for other Plugins and theird presets.
• Add support for other Linux.
• Further improve pattern matching
• Apply somewhat simple AI to further boost accuracy, including sorting not based on sound.
