Batch renaming 14 – 319
• Find exact text – Replacing only happens if the selected range exactly
matches a word in the table.
As an example, let’s say you have a series of drum samples where the
term “Darksnare” is the common part of the name, and you would like to
change all these to “Ambientsnare”.
If you have specified “Dark” as a match and “Ambient” as the replace-
ment, it would work fine if “Find anywhere in text” was selected, but not if
“Find exact text” was specified.
Lastly, two options are available:
• Case sensitive search – if this is checked the search will be case sensi-
tive.
• Keep letter case – if this option is checked the letter case will be trans-
ferred to the replacement.
E.g. if the selected range is “Pno” and the replacement “piano”, then the selected range will
become “Piano”. If the range was “pno”, it would become “piano”. If it was “PNO”, it would
become “PIANO”.
Import and insert category
This will insert information taken from a file or current context. This is
mostly audio-oriented as some features analyze the audio file headers.
If information is imported from the file, clip or marker itself, the following
applies:
• If an audio file is needed, the file in the active window is used.
• If a marker is needed, the first marker in the active window is used.
• If a clip is needed, the first clip in the active window (Audio Montage) is used.
The following options are available on the Type pop-up:
• Sample rate – This will insert the sample rate in the name(s) according to
the selected range.
You can select various ways to express the current sample rate from the Format pop-up,
e.g. 44100, 44.1kHz, etc. You can also insert a prefix and suffix in the corresponding fields.
• Number of channels – This will insert the number of channels in the
name(s) according to the selected range.
You can select various ways to express the current number of channels from the Format pop-
up, e.g. 2ch, Stereo, etc. You can also insert a prefix and suffix in the corresponding fields.
• Sample bit resolution – This will insert the bit resolution in the name(s) ac-
cording to the selected range.
You can select various ways to express the current bit rate from the Format pop-up, e.g. 16,
16 bit, etc. You can also insert a prefix and suffix in the corresponding fields.
