midi (muse) and samples (specimen)

Ok, this made me download hydrogen and indeed it has some nice kits 
(each within it's own directory, most of them wav). I also had a few 
collections of samples of old drummachines laying around, which made me 
play around with specimen.

So I wrote the attached python-script, that simply makes a .beef 
(specimen file) from all .wav-files in a directory. It'll assign every 
sample on a new note chromatically from a given note (default is 36), so 
it's mostly useful for drums.

I think it's gonna allow me to make noise more easily :-) I post it here 
in the hope others might find it useful too...
