|
|
## Multitrack exporter
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Description
|
|
|
|
- Exports patterns and projects individual audio tracks to seperate folders for use in your DAW.
|
|
- Python cross plattform with single file binary for x86 linux.
|
|
|
|
## Using Packaged single file Binarys _(The easy way)_
|
|
|
|
- Executables reside in the folder `/dist/`
|
|
- on Windows
|
|
`underbridge.exe`
|
|
- On Linux:
|
|
``./underbridge``
|
|
|
|
|
|
Underbridge_alt was packaged on a different system. Might help if you run into problems. (Outdated)
|
|
|
|
## Installation _(Less easy way)_

|
|
|
