# Xampler

> Xampler is a browser-based tool (by Hliuma) that turns WAV recordings into playable
> sampler instruments. It auto-detects each note's pitch, finds clean loop points, and
> maps samples across the keyboard automatically — then exports to SFZ, SF2, and Korg
> KMP/KSF. All audio processing runs client-side in the browser (audio never leaves the
> user's computer). No install. Pay per credit, credits never expire.

## What it does
- Convert one WAV containing every note (or a folder of separate WAVs) into a multisample instrument.
- Auto pitch detection per note (ensemble of 4 algorithms); 5 in-house loop-detection algorithms for click-free sustains.
- Drum mode: slice a drum loop and map each hit across the keyboard (3 in-house onset/loop algorithms).
- Stereo crossfade editor with zero-crossing snap; per-channel loop points on stereo.
- Export: SFZ, SF2, Korg KMP/KSF, WAV+SMPL loop chunk, native .hli/.hld project.
- Runs in the browser (Chromium), no installation, audio stays local (GDPR; loop server in Germany processes ≤10 s in memory, returns coordinates only).
