Audacity Init Project

A little script that initializes an arbitrary directory structure that suits my needs for audio editing for my church recordings. Works on Linux.

SYNOPSIS

audacityInitProject [OPTION]

You must enter one option when running the script.

OPTIONS

• i creates the directories the project following a certain structure
• f zips everything using zip

"i" option: This option creates interactively the structure asking where to put the origin.

Structure: "defaultParentFolder/name-of-the-project/projectData/output/"

I usually import the only .mp3 file in "/" and save the project file in "projectData/", then when exporting parts of the recordings I put them in "output/".

"f" option: This option zips "projectData/" and the .mp3 and/or .wav file as individual archives, you'll have to remove original folders manually
(optional: the scripts is going to ask if you to zip the "output/" folder, moving it somewhere else based on your needs - disabled by default).
