Issues on Windows 7

There are some users currently experiencing problems running SampleSort.  The problem has been identified and we are currently working on a solution for an update to the application to take care of the issue.  If you are experiencing any problem this solution may prove useful, not just for SampleSort but for other issues you may be having.

It turns out that some installation of Microsoft Office install a “Phantom Drive” that seems to appear as “Q:\” on users machines.  This is related to a tool called “Microsoft Office Click-to-Run 2010″.  You can read more about this particular issue here.

We will be releasing a new version of the application within the next few days.

Regards,

The JamSoft Team

0.6.8 & Current Issues

We are currently working very hard to get the release of v0.6.8 out the door as we discussed a few days ago.  This is a very high priority for us as there are issues with 0.6.6 (the currently available release) running on Windows 7.  A recent update from Microsoft has changed the way some automation features work and this has had an impact on SampleSort.  We have already implemented a fix for this which is included in the v0.6.8 release which will be available on this site hopefully later today!

SampleSort v0.6.6 Released

We have now released v0.6.6 of SampleSort.

Included in this update is a completely new categorisation engine.  This new categorisation engine has also added a new configuration setting to turn the ‘fuzzy’ matching process on or off.   To support this feature there is a new button on the Database page for recategorising the database.  If you change the categorisation engine settings (more control features to come) this button will re-catalogue the database contents.

You can now also specify your external audio editor application, once this has been done the data grids within SampleSort contain an option to open a file directly into the editor.

Other changes are all too development orientated to bore you with the details!  Hope you enjoy!  As ever all feedback is very welcome.

SampleSort v0.6.6

The next version of SampleSort (v.0.6.6) is currently in development and is looking like it will be available within the next 6 weeks.  This version will have a greater number of maintenance changes / bug fixes as opposed to lots of extra functionality included.

The major part of this release will be a completely re-worked automatic file categorisation process and a new ‘Fuzzy Matching’ feature of this process.  The ‘Fuzzy’ bit means that files will still be placed into a primary and secondary category but it will also allow them to fall into any other number of categories based on what SampleSort finds.

SampleSort v0.6.5 New Features

As the release of SampleSort v0.6.5 nears, we thought it was time we share with you some of the new functionality you will find in the new version.

Audio Engine - there is  a completely new, zero latency, audio engine that provides playback of all the common files (WAV, WMA, OGG, MP3, FLAC, AIFF, CDA etc).  SampleSort now supports samples upto 32Bit / 192Khz.  This removes the need for Windows Media Player … yay!

Monophonic / Polyphonic - you can now audition samples in monophonic or polyphonic playback modes.

Global Audio Looping - You can now configure SampleSort to playback in loop mode.

Master Volume Control - Control the global volume using the volume control in the main user interface.  This effects all active audio streams.

QuickSearch - Perform database searches without loading the database into memory.  With this option enabled SampleSort gathers the required search data when the application starts up, freeing lots of memory for the more critical applications you will be using.

Database V2 - There is also a new database format that has massively reduced the phyiscal size of the database file.  This also means that large databases load faster.  SampleSort will automatically upgrade V1 databases to V2 format.

Drives - Configure SampleSort to watch for new removeable drives and CD/DVD discs being added to the system so that you can start browsing their contents and using them in Export jobs.

32/64Bit - The main application installer is now capable of installing 32 or 64 bit versions.
