Hi everyone,
Does anyone know of a simple application for previewing samples?
Something that lists all supported audio files in a given directory,
that you can click once and hear the sample? jack support would be
necessary. I've searched the archives and found this question asked
before, but I wasn't able to find an answer. Any pointers or
suggestions would be very welcome.
Thank you!
For sample formats I have no idea, for normal audio samples mplayer is
likely a good choice. I recently switched to ROX filer, and there you
can specify a commandline and associate it with a filetype or group of
filetypes (based on MIME). With that you could go fancier than 'mplayer
file', maybe even find a way to stop the previously played file?
Samplecat is a dedicated sample organization/playback tool, but I never
actually used it.
