A program that moves all unused audio in FL Studio to a seperate folder. Then you can check if everything went fine, and remove all files at once!
- Follow steps 1-6
- Begin with telling FL Studio to clear unused audio. This step is necessary to tell our program what files are in use and not. You can press 'delete' on individual audio clips, or let FL do it automatically by clicking:
- Save the FL Studio project
- Download FLAudioCleaner v1.1.0 (mirror)
- Edit
config.txtwith the project root. Probably only need to edit the userdjgregerto your username. - Click
runprogram.batand follow potential instructions
In FL Studio, deleting audio files only removes them from the project, not from your file system, which can lead to confusion. This program solves the issue by analyzing the .flp file to identify which audio files are actually used. It then moves the unused files to a seperate folder, keeping your project folder clean. I had 5.8 GB of unused audio on my first deletion.
This shows an example when running the program with a config file containing:
C:\Users\djgreger\Documents\Image-Line\FL Studio\Projects
Output from command prompt:
C:\Users\djgreger\Documents\FLAudioCleaner>FLAudioCleaner.exe
C:\Users\djgreger\Documents\Image-Line\FL Studio\...\test_project_Insert 1.wav
C:\Users\djgreger\Documents\Image-Line\FL Studio\...\test_project_Insert 2.wav
C:\Users\djgreger\Documents\Image-Line\FL Studio\...\test_project_Insert 3.wav
Unused Audio folder: C:\Users\djgreger\Documents\Image-Line\FL Studio\Projects\Unused Audio
Found 3 unused clip(s) across 20 project(s) with a size of 3.237 MB, do you want to move them to Unused Audio folder (y/n)? y
