Samplework is a desktop toolkit for processing and organizing audio samples — format filenames to a consistent naming convention, build SFZ instrument mappings, and generate clean portable output from sample folders on disk.

It covers a range of mapping strategies: pitch-aware key mapping, round-robin and palette-based variation, temporal slice mapping, and more. Mappings can draw from a single sample set or combine multiple packs. Seeded randomization keeps variant outputs repeatable. Portable export bundles samples and mappings together in a structure that stays intact when moved.

Built and used in production for Spektralisk Audio sample work.

Who it’s for

Sound designers and sample library creators who work from folders on disk and need consistent, repeatable results. Samplework handles the manual work of file organization and instrument mapping at scale.

Requirements

macOS (Apple Silicon + Intel) or Windows. SFZ output requires an SFZ-compatible sampler.
