theshawz Posted Monday at 01:16 PM Report Posted Monday at 01:16 PM Hoping there's a power user of PT out there that knows some sort of undocumented keyboard shortcut lost in the ages. I have a periodic signal that I want to cut into tiny windows for training a classifier. I want the windows to be sliced at each period. I have the file recorded at 96/24 and it runs about a minute and a half. Period of the signal is 1/90 seconds, but the response does change subtly during each sample. I can set up a custom grid in pro tools and slice to grid but the cuts will drift by a 3rd of a sample. 1-2 samples offsets are not the end of the world but it will add up to an unacceptable difference over the course of a minute that I will need to fix. I am really hoping to keep it in pro tools, but I am beginning to wonder if I need to throw together some quick code in python/C/Java to get the job done. If I do that, I will need to also implement removing DC offset and normalizing to RMS...something a single click of an audiosuite in clip by clip mode could easily handle. I tried everything in PT to make this work, and I have a bunch of good workflow plugins that I could macro or batch process with (Auto Align Post, Defaulter, RX 10 Advance, etc). I just can't find a use for them to solve this problem. Beat detective and tab to transient is too dumb to cut it as well. They also have to be of equal length. Any ideas before I start coding? I have 30 recordings of these samples, so that works out to somewhere between 100,000 to 120,000 files. Manual work is out of the question. Quote
