    I would just delete the vast majority of the samples and concentrate on "less is more". Some of the most successful songs and albums were created with much less. Having too many samples is like having too much crap around the house. A human lifetime is not long enough to utilize all of these samples, just auditioning them is a monotonous chore. I keep my sample folders small and streamlined and only keep the stuff I use.

    • @TyDortonemusic
      @TyDortonemusic 7 лет назад +3

      World Traveller Agree with this a lot, it's a lot more useful to go through your new sample pack once and only save ones you know you would use and save in your own personal sample folder. Also I think multipliers method could actually screw you over if you've used the sample your renaming already cause when you reopen the project you used it in your DAW won't be able to find it

      Ty Dortone I actually had this problem then decided tk start saving all projects in it own containing project folder. In most daws there is feature to gather all used samples. For fl studio its a zipped file. More newer daws use there own file type like ableton and bitwig or presonus studio one.

    I do wish Ableton had a metatag feature so that you could add relevant tags and then search or sort by those, rather than making long, clunky filenames.

      The more you put it in one folder the more you have to scan. For example which one is easier: when you open your closet and you see 42 neckties, or when you see 2? In my case, I don't need ties nor a hairbrush incidentally but thought you might.

    The problem with this, as you will soon find out, is that by batch renaming, your other songs won't find the original files. No no no. This is NOT a good solution. I think...a better solution is DCP.

      As someone else has said 'collect all and save'. i have just gone through my projects folders and completed collect all and save on the sets i want to keep in preparation of reorganising my sample folder. this will save all the sets samples into its project folder so you csn then rename/move your sample folder without any impact on the samples in your sets. no issue at all. sometimes its a good idea to read the user guide.

    this method doesn't really work for certain DAWs like FL studio, whose search function is practically unusable - it doesn't list all the folders, instead just takes you to the first file that has the search term in it, then you have to cycle through all the different items one by one without being able to see the whole list. So instead of searching I just organize my samples folder into broad categories like "Vocals", "Drums", etc which contains *all* the relevant files. It's far from ideal, mainly because I have to do so much organization, having to dissect every sample pack and drop every individual file and folder into its category (furthermore certain samples could fit multiple categories), but there's not much of an alternative it seems... they really need to improve the search function for FL studio.
