And it works: I press CTRL + number and the Spek opens with the selected file loaded into it
But is it possible to tell somehow Spek via Mp3tag, to open in maximized mode [window]? Spek itself doesn't have option / configuration, but it can be maximed manually- which must be done each time, because it doesn't remember it. Could the Mp3tag PARAMETER be somehow modified to do that for me? Or alternatively: is there a way in Windows 7 to tell it, to always open particular piece of software maximized?
And the second issue: selecting more than one file, and sending in to Spek [or for example to Sound Forge editor], doesn't open multiple windows [or different projects in one instance in case of Sound Forge]. Could the PARAMETER somehow be modified to tell it to loop the command for all the selected files [and not stop after doing it for the first one]? As it is possible to open multiple instances of Speak, but manually one by one- can Mp3tag somehow do this all at once, each one for a different file?
That does the trick. But only if I actually click the shortcut- then the Spek is opened maximized
But even if I created such shortcut and then move it from the folder with the EXE, when I choose in Mp3tag that particular LNK file in PATH, that path comes out as the path of the EXE, just as if I have chosen the original EXE and not the LNK. The shortcut file is simply omitted by Mp3tag before it is even executed
So I think that only somekind of instruction for all of the OS would actually do the trick to the end
Or eventually maybe a BAT file, with the same / similar instruction for the EXE as it is used in LNK?
[I've also tried this in FreeCommander. The difference is that FC shows path specifically to the LNK file; and then even opens the Spek with it in maximized window- but empty, with no data loaded]
[It's official: I'm blind; or just plain stupid]
Yes, this works
This will speed up my work and make it more accurate
A: I write down a path to BAT?
B: I get >>Windows cannot find "spek.exe<<
C: ?
Whole process has to be done with shortcuts or from some menu. It is suppose to save me time, by getting rid of unnecessary clicking [when maximizing] and make work more proficient [by maximizing the view]. [For now I've only boost my speed and efficiency by making it possible to open multiple files at once in Mp3tag]
Could that have something to do with the fact, that Spek was not registered, but just runs without installation? I removed the parameters one by one, leaving at the end only START - and then it says
Path: C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe
Parameter: '/Q/D/U/C START "SPEK" /MAX "C:\Program Files\Spek\spek.exe" "'%_PATH%'"'and my files are at last loaded in maximized window of Spek. This will save me a lot of clicking
Thank you very much
Now I can go to sleep and maybe after a weekends rest I'll start using all of my brain
But I found a much more advanced Spectrum Anaylser which can display (Spectrogram, Melodic Range Spectrogram, Peak Frequency Spectrogram, waveforms and so on)
So I'm not the only one who indulges himself in such tasks. What a relief
I think I've already checked it out at the time when I started to use spectrograms [or it was some other piece of software]. And deemed it not right for my purposes because I could not make the spectrogram the deafault view and / or without a zoom [with the whole track seen after loading]
Does this Spectrum Anaylser allow for such behavior: that files send from Mp3tag will be opened without additional steps as spectrograms and will show the entire track?
