batch editing XML sample maps

[Lindon]

..so I have 200 sample maps that I have to reset the range of the sample set (so amend the lowest zones and highest zones)..as htey are all over the place and the customer wants them consistent

whats everyones favorite way to do this??? what tool?

[d.healey]

@Lindon It depends, can you give more details on exactly which values need to be changed, is it a different set of values for every sample or is it the same for all?

[Lindon]

@d-healey well if it was the same for all then it would be trivial - I'd just use Notepad++

no sadly, each SampleMap has its own layout - and there are round robins in there too, and thus the lowest zone(s) are different from sample map to sample map

So psudo code I'd need it to:

• find what the lowest value for LoKey is across all zones
• for each zone that has a LoKey= this value, then set it to some defined value

@Lindon In that case I'd use HISE itself.

There's some info here (read the comments too) https://forum.hise.audio/topic/64/fun-with-regex

@Lindon if I were you, I'd ask chatgpt to write a shell script for the scenario you described.

I had a bunch of seemingly random tasks like this that it was able to write a shell for in 1/2/3 attempts.

@d-healey well that looks fun but as usual its documented like not at all..
so i did this:

const var Sampler1 = Synth.getSampler("Sampler1");

for(sample in Sampler1.createSelection(".*"))
{
	Console.print(sample);
};

and get nothing back...

@Lindon oh hold on I have to load each sample map in turn...

[d.healey]

@Lindon

Works here

Yes, but you can do that programatically.

[Lindon]

@d-healey yep - working here too - thanks that should save some time...

[Lindon]

@Lindon now all I need is a way to programatically save the altered samplemap....

@d-healey wow you just and only just beat me to it...
