Guest Dr. Elemeno von Hat X: PhD Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 okay, as EKT music d00dz, we slowly amass a library of samples, melodies, patches, whatever. how do you keep it all organized? i am certain there is software out there to store+track samples, midi snippets, etc. but i've never looked into it. i figured i'd ask for opinions here, first. ideally: - i could track audio samples - i could copy + paste clips of midi in from cubase (write a melody, copy to clipboard, flip to app, paste). maybe cubase does this already! - i could track/store patches - sysex and cubase Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/19298-librarians/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
ten fingers ten toes Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 Well, for samples (which, since Ive used mod trackers for the past 15 years, Ive amassed quite a few of) go into 3 main categories: Synth, Drumz, Speech Synth: Bass Stabs Pads Waveforms (supersort snips) Drums: Dirs for each of the drum types (kick, hat, snare, etc) Dirs for specific classic kits (808, 606, 707, Univox, etc) Speech: Candid Raps Exclamations (Yeah!, Aight Listen!, Pump up tha Volume!, etc) Singing Choral (subdir under singing) Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide ten fingers ten toes's signature Hide all signatures Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/19298-librarians/#findComment-392860 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dr. Elemeno von Hat X: PhD Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 no i meant i'm looking for programs to do this for me. nothing complicated, just some way to group things in perhaps a tree structure, add notes to each, move, delete, rename, etc Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/19298-librarians/#findComment-392926 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mooncup Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 i enjoy the haphazard approach to organisaion and locating samples. i mean i have lots of folders and subfolders all neatly labelled but to be honest there is shit everywhere.

Guest mushroom Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 I don't organize shit. I have a folder called "Renoise", where all my song files and samples are lumped together. Especially fun when I accidentally select a non-audio file and it scares the shit out of me.
