recently i’m playing around with the logical editor and i’m really surprised how powerful this tool is! thanks steinberg!
but i couldn’t get the logical editor to rename a bunch of audio files with a sequence of numbers at the end.
e.g. i have a few audio samples with different names and i want them to be drum_1, drum_2, drum_3 and so on. is that possible? so i can grab these samples out of the aufio bin ready for mapping. it would save me an extra task with a renaming tool!
yeah i meant the project logical editor
it can rename tracks without problems but it seems like i’m doing something wrong with renaming events! how would you it?
Logical Editor cannot do this. Use Project Logical Editor for this. For example something like this:
Filter Target:
( Media Type is | Equal | Audio | And
Container Type Is | Equal | Part | And
Name | Contains | drum )
Action Target
Name | Generate Name | drum | 0
This will go thru all parts with name “drum”, and rename them to “drum 0”, “drum 1”, “drum 2”, etc.
if i configure no action target and select as function “select” it works perfectly! but if i want to generate a name and (and of course i select transform) it does nothing …
now every event is renamed (exactly how i wanted!) BUT it still puts the original name in brackets behind it and the new name seems to have no influence on the actual file name (not in the pool, not in the audio folder → that is the goal).
any ideas? is there a option to overwrite the old name with the new one?
