Using The Sound Catalog

The Sound Catalog is a list of sample names compiled from

various sound files. It does not contain the sample data

itself, only the sample names (RAM samples only). You can

think of the Sound Catalog as an index to your sample

library.

The Sound Catalog can be opened by using the Catalog menu’s

Show Catalog

command. The sound catalog can be sorted in two

different ways, as illustrated below:

The Sound Catalog:

Sort By File

The Sound Catalog:

Sort By Category

Sorting

The Sound Catalog can be sorted in two different ways.

Sort By File

(in the Catalog menu) is used to sort the sounds by their sound file’s

name.

Sort By Category

(also in the Catalog menu) is used to sort

the Sound Catalog by each sample’s category.

The Sound Catalog, when sorted by file, is best suited for

determining the contents of each sound file. When sorted by

category, it is best suited for finding a particular type of sample. For

instance, all the “Snare” samples would be grouped together,

indicating where each sample can be found.

In the Catalog menu, a check mark ( ) will appear to the left of

Sort

By File

Sort By Category

, depending on how the catalog is sorted.

The Sound Catalog must be the active window to change the way it

is sorted.

The Sound Catalog remembers the way it was sorted when you quit

the SP-12 Librarian, or when the Sound Catalog is closed. The next

time you open the Sound Catalog, it will be sorted the same way.

Adding To The Sound Catalog

The information in a sound file can be added to the Sound Catalog

by using the Catalog menu’s

Add Sounds To Catalog

command

(read the related material, if necessary).

Deleting Sounds From The Sound Catalog

You can delete sounds from the Sound Catalog by dragging them to

the trash can icon located above the right scroll bar. As your pointer

moves onto a sound, it changes from a pointer to a hand. As you

click and hold the mouse button, a dotted outline appears around the

sound. Drag the hand onto the trash can (the trash can becomes

selected), and release the mouse button. The sound is deleted from

the Sound Catalog.

Please note that you can’t “undo” this process. If you want to put the

sound back into the catalog, add the sound file as described above in

“Adding To The Sound Catalog.”

Changing The Sound Catalog

The only changes you can make to a Sound Catalog are adding

sounds or deleting sounds. Here a few examples of how typical

changes would be made.

If you renamed a sound file’s file name:

1. Activate the Sound Catalog by selecting the Catalog menu’s

Show Catalog

command.

2. Select

Sort By File

from the Catalog menu. This will group

sounds from the same sound file in one place.

3. Drag the sounds that use the

old

file name out of the window to

delete them.

4. Open the new sound file if necessary, and activate it (ie: make

sure its the front window)

5. Use the Catalog menu’s

Add Sounds To Catalog

command.

The Sound Catalog is now updated with the new file’s sample

information.

If you changed other information in a sound window:

1. Open the new sound file if necessary, and activate it (ie: make

sure its the front window)

2. Use the Catalog menu’s

Add Sounds To Catalog

command.

3. The SP-12 Librarian asks you:

Replace existing “File Name” sounds in the catalog?

Click the Yes button. The old Sound Catalog entries

representing the active sound file will be replaced with the

newest information.

Tips

…

• If a sample has been copied to another location and the original

sample has not been deleted, both the sound window and the

Sound Catalog will consider those to be two samples.

• When the Sound Catalog is printed, it provides a sample count per

file, per category, and for the whole catalog. This excludes copies

of samples within the same file (as described above).

• When the Sound Catalog is printed, it provides a “Total Sample

Time” figure per file, per category, and for the whole catalog. This

excludes copies of samples within the same file (as described

above).
