Sample Commander

Sample Commander is an application designed to assist in organizing audio files, also known as samples.

It is written & available as an Eclipse IDE plugin but it will soon be available as a standalone e4 RCP application.

💡 Motivation

Sample Commander aims to offer the convenient sample browsing experience provided in modern DAW's with an orthodox file manager interface.

It takes inspiration from software such as:

  • FL Studio's file browser: provides a single file tree to view the user's sample library. It is convenient for finding sounds to use in a song, but limited in its ability to quickly reorganize the sample library's structure.

  • Krusader: A Qt based orthodox file manager. Provides excellent file mangement capabilities and workflow.

Features:

  • ⌨️ Navigate file directory's quickly with your keyboard

  • 🗄️ View multiple directory contents side-by-side

  • 📂 Supports common file operations (cut, copy, delete, etc.) between directories.

  • 🎵 Audio playback for .wav, .mp3 and .flac is supported and can be started by selecting a supported file.

  • Git integration to keep track of changes to your audio library
