Install Requirements

Installation guide is available upon download

App is tested works on Mac OS Catalina 10.15 and Ubuntu 18.04.2. All library used in the scripts works with Windows. But I have not test on Windows Machines.

Convert your OP1 patches
In the user interface. There are two panels and four buttons. It is really simple getting around.

The top console shows found OP1 patches. Also, a queue waiting to be converted into Deluge file The bottom console shows the conversion status.

Four buttons:

• Open Folder: Select a folder that contains OP1 patched. Nested folder is fine. It does not have to be organized or sorted. But still, I strongly recommend that each patch is inside a named pack name. Like how this OP1 is used to.
• Scan:This scans and search for op1 patches
• Convert XML:Assign a place where you would want to save the exported files
• Clear Console:Clears both console

Prefix Naming:

If insert text like A1 Then all the output patch names will have A1 added as prefix. It will look something like this A1Patch1.XML. This is extremely useful as categorizing your Deluge patches. Since Deluge sorts when scrolling through patches. The name with prefix keeps the samples together. I strongly suggest prefix like A1...A12, B1...B12... It kinda acts like a bank. If the input box is empty, no prefix will be added.

Visualized Tool
After scanning patches, double click any item in the top console. If the patch is a drum patch. It will then display a visualized graph showing the sample chops like following.

Generated Deluge File Structure
Once the application finishes exporting there will be a new folder saved accordingly. The naming is something like Deluge_Export_ and followed by Date and Time
