New tool for generating OP-1+Z patches

While it’s not going to be useful to some, since it’s a command line tool, I haven’t seen anything else that does what it can do: GitHub - AlexCharlton/op-patch-util: A command line tool for creating and modifying patches for the OP-1 a

I can be used to create drum and synth patches from WAV files, as well as modify existing OP AIF files. Works well with the OP-Z, and it should work with the OP-1 as well - since the formats are the same - but I don’t have one, so I haven’t tested it myself.

Would love to see this in action (demonstrated) with OP-1

Is it MAC only? or Windows too?

I’d love to watch a video :smiley:

It should compile on just about anything, but I’ve made binaries for OSX and Windows, which are available here.

I probably won’t be creating any video demonstrations - that isn’t really a skill I possess (and I don’t have an OP-1) - but others are certainly welcome to do so :slight_smile:

Hi there !!!
Thanks a lot !
Would there be any possibility to batch create many kits with one command (and have the tool look into several folders) ?
That would be awesome.

Hey @jazzmess, glad you like it!

I kind of doubt I’d add that functionality to this tool, since I’m not sure how I could do so without the interface being pretty weird. Instead, it’s quite straight forward to create a shell script that does this. In fact, I just added a new example to the readme to illustrate: https://github.com/alexcharlton/op-patch-util#creating-multiple-patches-at-once

WoW that’s smart. Thanks.

I know this is years later, but was intrigued and tried to install and had compilation issues. Any shot at help getting it to work?

Just fixed the compiler error. Not sure if you saw, but there are pre-built binaries too.

Thank you sir! I guess I have a habit of compiling and running as there seem to be a number of TE related projects that are hosted OR you have to fun python locally and self host. Binaries ARE appreciated!
