How to automatically rename tracks according to file name

Hi all,
this is probabaly a very simple fix but for some reason its foxing me today,
in CS6 when importing multiple audio files, is there a way of automatically naming the tracks the same as the file name.
eg if the file is labeled 'snare.wav' and you import it into Track 1, then the track is then renamed 'snare'
thanks.

Thanks for the reply Steve, I understand the implications your refering to, I just wondered if there was an option to turn this on if required, so for instance if i am importing 70 or so audio files i dont have to go through and name each track one by one.
something similar to the 'Use Audio File Name as Track Name' option in Logic would be useful.
regards

  • To test how can we use the opt  'logical file name' to name the file based

    Hi Sir/Madam,
               to test how can we use the opt  'logical file name' to name the file based on the selection made in the dtp run for extracting data as flat file.

    Hi Vishali,
    In the DTP select the file location as application server and give the logical file path. The actual file and logical path can be created using transaction "FILE" and "AL11".
    Rest of the process is same as that of extraction from local file.

  • How can I stop iTunes automatically renaming tracks incorrectly as soon as they are played?

    iTunes has started renaming some tracks as soon as I play them. It completely changes all the info to a totally different cd. The only way I can change it is to manually change everything back and as I have more than 30000 tracks I don't fancy having to play every single one to see whether iTunes is going to change it to something I have never heard of. Can this automatic renaming be stopped?

    Could it be something with iTunes-Match/iCloud ??
    I've had problems getting "Hide items in the Cloud" and iCloud tick-boxes in View Options to stick.
    An occaisional glance at similar topics on these forums seems to indicate that people are having all sorts of funnies. So, I have severed iTunes from the net (I have Little Snitch) and will wait until things clear up before letting iTunes out of it's kennel again.

  • How do I rename a lot of files from an excel worksheet?

    Hello all!
    I have 2k+ files in a folder named sequentially from 0001.wav to 24xx.wav.
    I have their contents referenced in an .xls.
    This is a library made for Windows when it didn't accept very long names, so you couldn't just name the file accordingly.
    So what I want to do is to rename these files taking the name from my excel sheet and pasting it on the file. To do that one by one is really too much.... Can anyone think of an automated (or semi-automated) way of doing this?
    Thanks!!!

    Hi again,
    So I have a couple of questions, if you don't mind:
    Of course not!
    To hopefully make things more understandable, here's the script again with some line numbers I can refer to:
    1 for details in `cat myspreadsheetdetails.csv`
    2 do
    3 OLD_NAME=`echo $details | cut -f1 -d,`
    4 NEW_NAME=`echo $details | cut -f2 -d,`
    5
    6 echo "Renaming $OLD_NAME to $NEW_NAME"
    7 mv $OLD_NAME $NEW_NAME
    8 done
    Firstly, some assumptions I've made.
    1. The excel spreadsheet has 2 columns. Column A is the current name of the wav file, column B is the new name you want the wav file to have.
    2. Both name in columns A and B have the .wav extension specified
    3. None of the names have a space character in them. Eg. 'A cool song.wav'
    4. The script is being run from the folder containing the files to be renamed.
    Now, back to your questions:
    1)where in the script am I telling in wich directory the files are?
    The first thing we'd need to do in the Terminal, is change the working directory to where the wav files are located. The simplest way to do this is type 'cd ' (i.e. the cd followed by the space character) and then drag and drop the folder containing the wav files onto the Terminal window. That will populate the path and you can then press return to change to that directory.
    Line #1 specifies the file name that details the old and new names. Let's assume you save the excel spreadsheet as a csv file and create the file on your Desktop as being called songs.csv. In this case, line #1 would become:
    for details in `cat ~/Desktop/songs.csv`
    (The ~ is a shortcut that means your home folder.)
    2)will this script rename all the files automatically? I mean, when it finds 001.wav it will rename it to mynewtitle.wav and when it finds 004.wav it will rename it to mynewtitle4.wav? even if they are not sequential? even if not all the the files in the CSV are present in the directory, or viceversa?
    The script currently does not do anything more complex than follow what is present in the spreadsheet. So for example, if you have the following data:
    <pre style="font-family:'Courier New';">
    Column A | Column B
    0001.wav | MyNewTitle.wav
    0002.wav | SomeOtherTitle.wav
    2304.wav | Test123.wav
    0003.wav | GreatSong.wav
    </pre>
    it will rename, 0001.wav to MyNewTitle.wav, 0002.wav to SomeOtherTitle.wav, 2034.wav to Test123.wav and so on. The names themselves are irrelevant.
    If that's not what you want, can you give me a few examples?
    3)what do you mean by testing? how can I test the script without actually renaming the files?
    The only command that actually 'does' anything is line #7. When copying the commands in the Terminal if you skip that one line, then when you run it, the echo statement on line #6 will just print to the screen what it would do, without actually doing anything.
    If you can post a sample of the spreadsheet that should help me confirm I'm not going to trash your files
    If none of that made sense, just yell and I'll try to rephrase.

  • How do i rename tracks in itunes in a imac?

    am new imac owner, previously had a PC and used right-click to rename tracks where itunes wasn't able to get track details when uploading CD's - how do i do this on the imac?  also how do i get album art work?  please don't judge me for ignorance Apple lovers......i have seen the light, i have converted, i just need a little help.....

    You can use Get Info for a selected song - with a song selected at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Get Info - the keyboard shortcut for this will be available next to the Get Info selection.
    iTunes includes an option to check for album artwork for songs that don't have it, or search the web and download your own which can be added via the Get Info function for a selected song. The last tab for the various selections is the artwork - it can be added there.

  • How to automatically rename duplicate field names?

    I'm trying to merge mutiple PDF files into one but some PDF files have duplicate field names. Is there a way that Acrobat can automatically rename those duplicate field names so that they remain unique during merging?

    Ok I found it :-) how to create a template thx ++
    I used that JS script with it (with my template name) :
    var expTplt = getTemplate("ajout_suivi_therap");
    expTplt.spawn(numPages,true,false);
    This works perfectly (new page under the last one, new names for fields) when I test it on my acrobat 8, but it doesn't work anymore on reader 9. Here is (in french !) the error message I have from the console :
    NotAllowedError: Les paramètres de protection interdisent l'accès à cette propriété ou à cette méthode.
    Template.spawn:2:Field Ajouter_page:Mouse Down
    If I try a translation of it :
    NotAllowedError : Security settings prohibit access to this property or method.
    Template.spawn :2:Field Ajouter_page:Mouse Down
    Do you have an idea ?
    Do I have to activate an option when saving the file ?
    Thx !!

  • How to export all tracks into audio files with the same duration

    Hi everybody.
    I am trying to export all the tracks into different audio files.
    It's 10 soft. instruments and an audio track. I tried with "File>Export>All Tracks as Audio File but the result is 11 audio files with different lengths. As the song is 3 minutes and 20 seconds I would like every single track to be 3.22 sec long.
    How do I do it? In fact, each track is composed not only by played instruments but also by moments of silence.
    Thanks!!

    The files are different lengths because each instrument does not stop playing at the same moment. It would accomplish nothing other than waste disk space if Logic appended silence to the end of each file in order to make each track the same length. The different lengths you see mean nothing because the absence of appended silence means nothing.
    each track is composed not only by played instruments but also by moments of silence.
    Naturally. And that silence is accounted for in your exported files, when the silence appears at the beginning of the track, and when it appears during the track. It just isn't appended at the end because that would be pointless. Consider this project, consisting of four tracks:
    When I use the command File > Export > All Tracks as Audio Files, Logic will produce four files that look like this:
    The files are not equal in length, which is perfectly fine. What's important is that they all start at bar 1, and will align properly when imported into some other program. So all you need is the command you already used: File > Export > All Tracks as Audio Files. In one step, it will produce all the files you need, and it will produce them correctly.
    By using Bounce, you would be gaining nothing except extra work, because you would have to do it separately for each file you wanted to produce. With Export > All Tracks as Audio Files, you get all your files with just one command.

    exporting tracks means that any panning or automation will not be rendered. So if you want the engineer to put up all of your tracks at unity gain (all faders at zero) and have your tracks & stems reproduce the mix you're hearing at your studio, use bounce, not export.
    If you want to have your tracks & stems reproduce the mix you're hearing at your studio, there's no need to go to the extra effort of using Bounce instead of Export. You only need to enable (in the Export dialog) the checkbox "Include Volume/Pan Automation." This is explained on p. 1022. When you do this, any panning or automation will indeed be rendered.

  • How to "Export All Tracks as Audio Files" in Pro Tools?

    I have a Pro Tools session that I want to mix in Logic. So I need to bounce all tracks as audio files like Logic's "Export All Tracks as Audio Files" command. Does anyone know if this is possible in PT, or do I need to bounce one track at a time (in realtime!)?

    Sorry, but the previous answers are not quite correct. Consolidate tracks will only merge all your edits and fades and make a new audio file out of it. It wont consolidate any automation or insert effects. The same is true for exporting audio from the regions pane. Therefore you still have to perform a "bounce to disk" in order to consolidate properly. So no it doesn't have the "Export All Tracks as Audio Files" option......
    Christian,
    When "exporting" from one DAW to another, it's generally understood that automation and plug-ins will not be included.
    Exporting from Pro Tools does indeed bounce the files to disk. We aren't talking about a stereo mix here. We're talking about exporting all the individual tracks. Are have I misunderstood you?
    .... which leads me on to this question. How long has logic had the "Export All..." function as I have been performing "track lays" (i.e. getting my logic stuff ready for a pro-tools mix) for films that can often take days to perform and am embarrassed to stumble across this option on this forum as I fear I may have cost myself several weeks of my life working the long way round!!!
    "Export All tracks as Audio Files" was introduced in version 7.0.
    Don't feel too ashamed though. I have a good friend, who has been using Logic daily as long as I have (8 years or so now), who only 3 months ago, saw me utilizing that feature, and his jaw dropped. He too, had been wasting "weeks" of his life, doing it the way you have been doing it. : )
    You're gonna absolutely LOVE using that feature from this day forward...!

  • How to automatically generate ASN according to outbound DN for STO in R3?

    Hi gurus,
    In our scenario, we need to automatically generate ASN according to outbound DN for STO. You know we can configure this functionality in ECC system, but it seems impossible in R3 4.7 system. Can we sove this problem by SPRO or user exit/BADI?If not, we have to use PI middleware to make it work.
    Any help will be appreciated.

    You can send IDoc from output determination to any system (using ALE) or EDI (through file).
    If you are wanting to distribute IDoc to another system within your organization, then use medium 'A' (for distribution through ALE).
    In transaction NACE, you can see LAVA output type come with both EDI and ALE mediums enabled (look at Process routines in NACE for output type LAVA). Ensure that in the output condition records are set with medium 'A'. You would of course need partner profile in WE20 with outbound parameters set to match your output.

  • Batch Folder renaming according to file name.

    Hi,
    I work in a busy photostudio and I am currently using automator to process thousands of Images, compression, size, name changes ect. However there is just one process I am stuck on. I need to put these Images into folders that relate to the file name. I have a process that will do this that I found here. This works well but i need it to only look at a certain part of the file name.
    For example if I had a collection of images like this,
    azz55412_blue_3.jpg
    azz55412_pink_2.jpg
    azz55412_blue_6.jpg
    azz78459_blue_1.jpg
    azz78459_blue_3.jpg
    azz65236_blue_7.jpg
    The current process would place each one in a folder named after each image. Ideally I would like it to only look at the first part of the name ie azz55412 and create a folder called that and place any other images it finds with the same code in that folder.
    Is this possible with automator or applescript?
    Any help or suggestions would be appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Mark

    Save the line below into a plain text file and give it the .jsx extension.
    app.activeDocument.activeLayer.name = decodeURI(app.activeDocument.name).match(/(.*)(\.[^\.]+)/)[1];
    Then create an action that runs that script. Then run File-Automate-Batch using that action.

  • How To Automatically Open docx and xlsx files in Safari

    I am been doing some searching but don't seem to be able to find an answer to what must be a very simple setting I am missing somewhere.
    We have an intranet site with links to a number of docx and xlsx files, I need to tell Safari to automatically open those files rather than simply placing them in the download folder. The only information I could find mentioned creating a file called "com.apple.DownloadAssessment.plist", I found an example of that file that was supposed to do what I am looking for but as far as I can tell the version of Safari I am running (5.1.9) is ignoring this file (placed in my user's preference folder in the Library).
    It is frustrating to not be able to figure this out, typically I have no problem finding very basic settings such as these but this has me lost. In Firefox it is trivial and it must be in Safari too. Can anyone help tell me what I need to do so that Safari will automatically open newer MS Office files?
    Thanks in advance.

    Yes, but there at least you are talking to people who all use the app, while in this forum (which is for hardware and not software in any case, so already off the mark, since the problem has nothing to do with hardware), it is probably a minority.
