Off Topic: Sounds in alphabetical order?...
Post prod° in general being slowing down these days, I'm getting less work but more time to take care of my studio.
So, I'm about to do something I should have done for a long time, classify my (quite huge) sound library in alphabetical order !...(man, this is gonna take a lifetime). So here's my question (at last!...): does anyone here know what app. I could use in order to be able to just type the sounds names ("Car passing by ", "Museum amb."...) and have them automaticaly sort by alphabetical order ( I don't wannna do this by hand !!!! HELP). Thanks.

Re: Off Topic: Sounds in alphabetical order?...
You can do that almost with any program, but i'd would reccomend you the simplest Micorsoft Word.
All you have to do is create a table and insert there all the names (+ anything else you need to keep) and when done, in the same Table menu click in the Sort option... That's it !

MR. T,
Have you thought of Excel? I think you could even Import the names into "cells" in excel. Just a shot in the dark. Maybe you can cut and paste the names of the sounds from one monitor drag them to yuor 2nd monitor where a spreadsheet awaits you dropping them in? (just thinking of new ways to use your new dual display) [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] |

Umm.. Maybe Im confused, but, If you type the names in on a file. they default to alphabetical order. What I am I missing?

Re: Off Topic: Sounds in alphabetical order?...
Come on Chomp., wake up, it's late morning already (want a cup of coffee?) ! I was not mentionning files from folders. I was talking about typing text in, let's say, Simple Text or Word.
When you're typing a letter in such documents, do all the words sort by alphabetical order? If yes, your letters must sound pretty weird !! (it could start like this: "Are Friend Going Hello How My You ?"). PS: Hi Kris, I'm more and more enjoying the (Twin) View ! Thanks. The Copy/paste wouldn't work since the sounds names are quietly sitting on something like 50 differents Sound Library CD back covers...
