The goal of this project is to alter an existing PC executable (.exe) file to provide a means to automate a tedious process. (This will be a program used for my personal use and not a program that will be repackaged or sold.)
The program to alter :
BR Wave Converter 2.0: Wave Converter Software
(http://www.rolandus.com/products/productdetails.php?ProductId=699)
What the program is used for: It converts a Roland audio multi track File structure format to a standard .WAV audio format.
Why I need to alter the program :
I regularly archive recordings in the roland format and convert them and the current process is too tedious.
My current process:
1) open a folder that contains many individual folders always with the same folder structure (see attached .zip for the converter program and example files to be converted)
2) drive down to file path: student Name – Instrument – Level – Teacher – Date
3) give that specific path as drive letter so it can be selected in the program (drive)
4) open brwc.exe
5) set drive letter that I specified above
6) select song (there will only be one song in each folder)
7) Select ‘ALL’ button
Select ‘GO’ button
9) (Save As dialog appears) FileName is in notes.txt “Song Title(s) :”
10) (save in same folder)
Go to next folder in the convert folder…
I want this to be a process that is only one step :
1) Put program in the folder that holds the convert folder and run it. It will convert all of the projects within the subfolders within the convert folder. (log any errors in a txt file)
