CDXtract 4.5-AIR

Browse: CDXTRACT is an intuitive and very fast browser for all your sampler
files and audio files. It displays the waveform of the samples as well as the
mapping of the programs. CDXTRACT can read from most IDE, SCSI and USB drives
including CD, ZIP, Jazz and MO. It also read from Virtual Disks.


Listen: CDXTRACT 4 is the only software that includes a real time audio player
capable of playing all the loop modes found in some hardware samplers like the
reverse loops, the alternate loops and even the de-synchronized alternate
loops. And thanks to its magic player you can now listen to an Akai, Roland or
EMU disc as if it were a regular audio CD.


Convert: CDXTRACT converts your sampler files to the most popular formats with
a very high accuracy. All kind of conversions are possible, single, bulk but
also CDXTRACT includes a batch converter that allows you to select your
favorite programs or samples and convert them with a few mouse clicks. Unlike
the other converters, CDXTRACT has no limitation of destination formats for
one specific source format. All source formats can be converted to all
destination formats.


Innovate: With CDXTRACT 4 you can combine several programs together in various
manners. You can merge programs, you can combine several programs on top of
each other (velocity stacking) or use a controler to switch from one program
to another. Also you can combine 2 programs with a crossfade on a controler.
And thanks to its multi-context technology, you can do all that with programs
from many different locations.


Bank: Since CDXTRACT 4.1 you can create your own banks for the following
formats: Soundfont, Giga, Halion and VSampler.


Search: Have you ever wasted time looking for a specific sound in all your
sampler disks? CDXTRACT includes a hierarchical database that can store an
unlimited number of Akai, Roland and EMU disks. You can search for any program
or sample by simply entering a few keywords, such as: "snap", "guit", "bass",
"drum" ... and CDXTRACT will give you a detailed list of all the items that
match your request.

Performance: CDXTRACT needs only 20 Megs to run and is extremely fast. It uses
its own file cache technology for all disk I/O which gives faster performance
than the standard Microsoft and Apple file cache systems. Moreover CDXTRACT
performs all the conversions on the fly without any single temp file which
makes it at least 2 times faster than any other converters using temp files.


Print: CDXTRACT includes a report generator for your sampler disk's content,
these reports use the html format. Moreover CDXTRACT creates a detailed html
report for each conversion, which is very useful to keep track of where the
converted files come from.
