Refresh Library File Browser?

Post by Ajgi »

I often get new sounds from Splice while making music, but it seems the file browser doesn't refresh so I can't access them from within Mixcraft.

Hi,

Right-click on the name of the folder and select Refresh.

Aah, cheers Greg.
Another thing, could you guys make it so the file browser shows everything within a folder, ie, shows every sample I have when I select the main folder, then only shows my drums when I go into the drums folder, only shows kicks, etc if you know what I mean? I have my samples stored in separate folders depending on pack, type etc, but it require a lot more clicking than necessary to find anything.

Just realised, it doesn't refresh for new folders, which is one of the main things, since splice puts new samples in a bunch of different folders.

Hi,

But if you right-click on that folder name and select Refresh, it works?

Yes. New files show up, but new folders don't.

Yes, it definitely isn't adding new folders. I'll see if it's any different in the new build once it's downloaded.

then the map structure opens up at the left window but what I mean is that if you would click on a map with the arrow in front of it and not click on the arrow it self could it be possible that you would get in the centre window an overseen of the map structure as an tree. Now if you click on a map with an arrow before it and if there are no audio samples in it but a tree beneath it you get in the centre window "no matching file types in the selected folder"
