Autonaming tracks with last imported sound file

FMOD Studio

Hi Everyone, is there a functional script that creates a track and auto name’s it after the file that i importing the last? I have a huge session and i have always to rename all of my tracks when importing a new file. It takes forever.

I don’t have a script on hand, but I’d be happy to provide some pointers or basic code snippets. Can I get you to elaborate on what the desired behavior is? For example:

  • What specifically are you trying to rename?
    • Whole events
    • Individual audio tracks
    • etc.
  • When is it that you want to trigger the renaming?
    • File import
    • Replacing an existing file with a new one
    • Adding a new file to an event or track
    • etc.

A short series of steps explaining what exactly you’re trying to do would be great.

thanks for the answer. One of our programmers helped me out making a script, that auto names tracks with a shortcut once you have selected a audio clip on your track. You can change the shortcut in the script. right now it is alt&2 on mac. Is here a pool with already existing script for sharing my script?

There’s no pool, but you’re more than welcome to share the script in this thread.
