It sums both channels, so a sound panned to one side isn't lost. Batch convert whole sample packs to mono, folders and all, as WAV or AIFF.
It sums both channels, so a sound panned to one side isn't lost. Left and right are added at half level each into one mono channel. Taking only the left channel would drop whatever sits on the right.
It's mono, yo! batch converts stereo WAV and AIFF files to mono, for hardware samplers and anything else that wants mono. Some samplers only play mono files, like the original Elektron Digitakt and the Model:Samples. On others, like the Roland SP-404 and the Akai MPC, a mono file takes half the space of a stereo one.
HOW IT WORKS
• Drag in WAV or AIFF files, or a whole folder, or press ⌘O
• Choose an output folder
• Pick the format, bit depth and sample rate
• Press Start
CONVERT A WHOLE SAMPLE PACK
Drop in a folder and every WAV and AIFF inside it is converted, subfolders included, into the same folder structure. Your kicks, snares and loops stay where you put them. There's no file limit.
OUTPUT CONTROL
• Bit depth: 16-bit (default), 24-bit or 32-bit float
• Format: WAV or AIFF
• Sample rate: keep the original, or convert to 44.1, 48 or 96 kHz
FEATURES
• Stereo summed to mono, left and right at half level each
• Multichannel files, like 5.1, folded down with the ITU-R BS.775 weights
• Folder import with the folder structure kept
• Nothing overwritten: if a name is taken, the new file gets a number
• Your original files are never changed
• VoiceOver, Reduce Motion and dark mode
• A small native Mac app
FOR SAMPLERS LIKE
• Erica Synths Sample Drum
• Elektron Digitakt, Model:Samples and Octatrack
• Roland SP-404
• Polyend Tracker
• Akai MPC
• Eurorack sampler modules

Great for Preparing Samples for Rample
AllieDawn2000
Thank you so much for creating this. I was dreading hand converting samples for my Rample modules but this app makes it fast and easy
As advertised!

Instantaneous stereo to mono batch conversion! Also converts to different sample rates and bit depths. Possibly the best $1 purchase I've ever made!
Developer Response
Thanks, James! Glad the batch conversion and the sample rate and bit depth options save you time. If anything ever misbehaves, Help > Send Feedback in the app reaches me directly.
Cheap and it works!
Dave Bechtel
$.99 to save me a bunch of time for folks that use Logic and don’t know how to export mono files! GREAT!
Developer Response
Thanks Dave! Glad it's saving you time. If you ever need AIFF output or different bit depths, that's all in v1.2 now. Happy producing!
Awesome lil app!
