.preset made on Windows arent recalling audio files on mac due to Foldername/ vs Foldername\

[mwplugs]

within user presets made on windows files are recalled
fileName="AUDIO_FILES"FolderName\Soundfile.wav"

this makes the paths unable to be found on mac

when you save a preset on mac it saves as
fileName="AUDIO_FILES"FolderName/Soundfile.wav"

changing the direction of the slash makes the presets recall correctly

i have about 500 presets so...what should i do...and also this should be addressed

Samples should be stored in the Samples folder and they should be recalled through sample maps not by presets. Could you explain your project setup a little more?

[mwplugs]

@d-healey its using the audio loop players which default to pull from the Audio Files folder

[David Healey]

@mwplugs Oh now I understand. I don't know if there is a solution (I mean you could just do find/replace on all / for all presets (if you use a text editor like Atom or Sublime you could do it in seconds)). But I don't think that would be a good solution. I'm guessing this is something @Christoph-Hart will need to take care of in the HISE codebase.

[mwplugs]

any ideas? it seems silly to have to bust out notepad++ and have to do replace on all these lines and also have to have seperate mac and pc presets

[mwplugs]

i know the audio loop player isnt talked about much but its actually incredible for oneshots ;) is there any program that can do replace all on a batch of files at once? that might have to do for the time being

[David Healey]

@mwplugs Yeah, Atom, Sublime Text, and Cuda Text can all do that. I'm having a look at the HISE source now to see if I can spot anything obvious.

[mwplugs]

ughhh lol

I think instead of using AUDIO_FILES you should use the {PROJECT_FOLDER} wildcard like with sample maps. That may resolve the / \ issue too. I don't have a suitable project setup to test this so let me know if it solves it.
