Variables That Can Be Used for Renaming

Instead of entering the text to replace manually, you can also use the variables on the Replace by pop-up menu.

Sample File $(Sample)

The file name of the original sample.

Sample Folder $(SampleFolder)

The name of the folder where the sample is located.

Zone Name $(Zone)

The name of the zone.

Layer Name $(Layer)

The name of the layer.

Program Name $(Program)

The name of the program.

Key Low Number $(KeyLow)

The MIDI note number of the lower limit of the key range.

Key High Number $(KeyHigh)

The MIDI note number of the upper limit of the key range.

Key Low Text $(KeyLowText)

The note name of the lower limit of the key range.

Key High Text $(KeyHighText)

The note name of the upper limit of the key range.

Velocity Low $(VelLow)

The number of the lower limit of the velocity range.

Velocity High $(VelHigh)

The number of the upper limit of the velocity range.

Root Key Number $(RootKey)

The MIDI note number of the root key.

Root Key Text $(RootKeyText)

The name of the root key.

Date $(Date)

The system date (in the format yymmdd).

Time $(Time)

The system time (in the format hhmm).

Counter $(Counter)

A counter starting at 1, counting up for each replacement.

You can also use counter variables with up to 5 digits, where the counter starts with 01, 001, etc. These are not available on the menu. To use them, enter $(Counter2), $(Counter3), etc.

Important

The variables $(Sample), $(SampleFolder), $(Zone), $(KeyLow), $(KeyHigh), $(KeyLowText), $(KeyHighText), $(VelLow), $(VelHigh), $(RootKey), and $(RootKeyText) work only for zones. If you try to use any of these variables for replacing text in a layer name, the matching text is deleted. The variables $(Program), $(Layer), $(Date), $(Time) and $(Counter) always work.
