xCleaner

This tool can automatically detect and correct a large number of issues in Renoise instruments.
It has been designed for content-creation, and is meant to be used as one of the last steps before publishing.

Here is the complete list of issues that the tool is aware of:

• Unreferenced content
  • Samples which are not being used
    • Check phrases for keymap (keep when trigger is set to transpose)
    • Check for direct sample references (sample column)
  • Modulation-sets and Effect-chains
    • When there are no samples assigned to set or chains
    • When unreferenced by devices in other sets or chains
• Sample: channel processing
  • Detect completely silent samples (remove)
  • Stereo samples which are in fact monophonic (reduce to one channel)
  • “Hard-panned” samples with a blank channel in either side (use non-blank)
  • Detect and fix incorrect sample bit-depth (e.g. 16 bit reported as 32 bit)
• Sample loop and trimming:
  • Detect (and remove) excess data after loop
  • Detect silence (with adjustable loudness threshold) at either end of sample.
• Sample (re-)naming
  • Automatic shortening “VST: Synth1 VST (Honky Piano)” → Honky Piano
  • Automatic (random) name generator
  • Custom name (batch renamer)
