Hi all,

Thanks for the nice replies regarding my first perl program :)
I don't have a www connection at home now, so sorry for the late reply.

I modified my first version a bit and also made a second version with a
different usage.

Now I have listdir<https://sites.google.com/site/experimentalfrush/installed-apps/tapeutape/listdir?attredirects=0&d=1>which
should be copied to the directory containing the samples. Run it from
there.
https://sites.google.com/site/experimentalfrush/installed-apps/tapeutape/listdir?attredirects=0&d=1

The other version is
dir2tap<https://sites.google.com/site/experimentalfrush/installed-apps/tapeutape/dir2tap?attredirects=0&d=1>which
should be placed in your tapeutape preset folder and has usage like
this: dir2tap /path/to/dir. It then saves thisfolder.tap into the folder
where it was executed from.
https://sites.google.com/site/experimentalfrush/installed-apps/tapeutape/dir2tap?attredirects=0&d=1

Now by default the minnote, maxnote and rootnote value are rising from 0 to
127. If you need to load more that 128 wavfiles, replace the ==note==
variable in the source to a default numeric value between 0 and 127.

Also,  each Instrument now gets the name of its loaded .wav file. Editing
this will be less work than editing "new instrument".

I suppose that's a name that needs to be given only once, so give the name
you choose when you edited thisfolder.tap with Tapeutape itself. Thanks for
the request anyway, I'll see how to implement that.

Now the range is just one note, this way I also make sure no more than 128
files are loaded at once, because if note="129" is written in the .tap file,
it crashes Tapeutape when you click on that instrument. It's possible to
assign a note range to each sample, but that would take 3 extra variables:
the min note, max note and total number of files loaded for the check. This
is another good feature request, useful for Florent too I guess.

Have a nice day.
Peter
