Vitalizer

A vital preset optimizer

Process

1. main.py is launched.
2. main.py calls gui.py
3. gui.py finishes and returns the User Input variables to main.py
4. main.py loops through all the files in original_presets and extracts the Processing variables
5. main.py either sends a dictionary (https://pastebin.com/czG8igxq) for all of the files, or sends them one at a time, containing both User Input variables and Processing variables to processing.py
6. processing.py processes the files and either returns the to main.py or sends them off to optimized_presets

Processing variables

file_path // string // The file path of the preset

disabled_prefixes // list // A list of the disabled prefixes

file_data // dict // The entire preset file data in dictionary form

User Input variables

Stick to using these for all user inputs so our programs can work together

round_amount // int // The amount each parameter/knob is rounded too.

pretty_file // bool // Will pretty print the new JSON file for easy reading if true

round_lfos // bool // Will round LFO's if true

delete_unused // bool // Enables deleting of all unused data from prefixes in disabled_prefixes if true
