    it wouldn't be soooo bad if they had developed a naming convention first... but come on, something as simple as hi hat 2 being named either hihat2 or hihat-2 totally screws up the parsing i was going to do to move them all into directories. blech.

    edit...
    and files named <name>.rx2.rx2
    LOLZ!!!

    I asked the same question a few weeks ago and was told it makes the loops easily "searchable".  I have no clue what they were talking about.  I much prefer the folders or categories.

    Cheers!

    I guess some would say, the X2 pattern matching search function makes filtering a large directory faster that navigating a directory tree. A good naming convention would make it even faster.

    Here's a batch file to rename the loops files in this order if anyone's interested
    <kit/style>-<instrument>-<bpm>.rx2

    https://skydrive.live.com...d=5DBE71A770FCC390!301
    download it to the content - loops directory and run.

    I'll get around to standardizing the names of the instruments at some point and make that available as well.

    ANYWAY... so if cake is touting their search so much why don't they make it recursive through subdirectories???
