Re: [LAU] Command Line Beat Slicing

aubiocut is great. Does exactly what I needed, except for one thing -- the filenames for the slices are too long for my MPC1000. I wrote a bash script to get around this. It copies the sample to be chopped to /tmp and does the chopping there. It then copies the slice files back over to where you called the script from renamed in 8.3 format using the first 3 chars of the original filename plus a '0'-padded sample number, i.e. the first slice chopped from sample.wav would be sam00001.wav. Usage: chopup <filename.wav> #!/bin/bash # # chopup # Dan Richert (http://t.dnlr.net/) # 01/17/2009 cwd=`pwd` bn=`basename $1` id="$RANDOM$RANDOM" idbn="$id$bn" cp $1 /tmp/$idbn cd /tmp aubiocut -i $idbn -c -L -q c="1" pad="00000" for seg in `ls $id* |grep -v ^$idbn$`; do let "padding = ${#pad} - ${#c}" cp $seg $cwd/${bn:0:3}${pad:0:$padding}$c.wav rm $seg let "c = $c + 1" done rm $idbn # End of script Jan Weil wrote:
