hi, i’d like to drag 200 samples into renoise. i don’t want the 200 samples to be loaded into a single instrument. i want 200 instruments.
how do i change how this dragging behaviour is responded to by Renoise? can the API modify it?

If you drag a group of selected samples from the internal browser onto the instrument list it populates as individual instruments, no?
@slujr
yes, you’re correct – if i use the disk browser.
but i would like to modify how renoise behaves when i drag, from outside sources (think Finder, Explorer, etc), and modify what is done with them. i.e. “drag sample in? → create new instrument, load”… or “drag sample in?” → add new slot to current instrument and load to new slot" type stuff.
or “drag sample in? slice into 16 pieces automatically”.
From a tool you can upload any sample anywhere. But you must create a custom browser to be able to select specific files and certain upload options.
The problem is selecting files from a specific folder.
yep, i’m aware of the finder + explorer based custom browsers, and how linux doesn’t have that, instead showing a truly limited renoise file browser.
and am also unfortunately very aware of the fact that can’t spawn the finder/explorer/linux-renoise-browser in a specific folder directly, either.
but i was hoping there was a way to hijack the “file being dragged into Renoise from outside Renoise” method to do x or y with it.
is it possible to override the .wav file-extension so that a script automatically does something specific with it? like with the EXS support?
( i’m under the impression that dragging an .EXS external file format into Renoise, with EXS Tool installed, will result in the EXS being loaded. or did i misunderstand/misremember?)
Yes it is possible via “add_file_import_hook”
hi… is it possible to then hijack the current file import hook for wavefiles, mp3s and flacs?
i mean, so i could decide what to do, maybe with a keymodifier or something?
