Lightweight, text-based user interface (TUI) utility to recurse a directory and audition sound files.
cargo install --path .
In a shell, run:
sampletree <path/to/directory>
For example:
sampletree Drum\ Machines/
A user interface similar to the following should appear:
Traversing Drum Machines/
z[ ] x[ ] c[ ] v[ ]
[1/4433] Drum Machines/Alesis SR-16/SR16 Kik_Amb Elect.wav
Each sample is played as the user traverses the directory. Samples can be assigned to "pad" keys z, x, c, and v by pressing Shift+{z,x,c,y}, and played back by pressing the pad key after a sample has been assigned. The pads may be used as a primative drum machine to assist in auditioning the samples.
When exiting the program, the paths to the sample files assigned to the pads are dumped to stdout.
