Decent Sampler format wrapper

[DaniloCiaffi]

Hello all,

I’m loving the concept of Decent Sampler, although I absolutely hate xml, and I feel having a way to programmatically generate it would be a huge help. Is anyone working on a wrapper in some more digestible language for it (e.g. python)?

I’m not sure I really understand what you are asking for, but if what you want is a tool to create dspresset files easily you can find my Decent Sampler Helper Tool (a single file local web page made using HTML & Javascript) here:

That tool is very nice, especially for UI! I also know there’s a LUA script to export dspreset from Kontakt 6, but that is useless if you don’t have Kontakt in the first place.

I meant something more like a Python class to handle the dspreset file generation. An example (that is in fact a module I’m implementing on my own) could be:

import pydecent
...
instrument = pydecent.Preset()
group1 = instrument.add_group(<group settings>)
for sample in samples:
    # some logic
    group1.add_sample(sample, <sample settings>)
...

and this generates a fully formed instrument. I just thought I’d ask since I started making one myself, but if someone’s already on it I won’t waste the effort.
