A Better Finder Rename 8.1.3 is designed as a powerful tool which can allow you to quickly rename multiple files more>>
A Better Finder Rename 8.1.3 is designed as a powerful tool which can allow you to quickly rename multiple files. This powerful, yet easy-to-use utility transforms the often tedious and time-consuming task of renaming multiple files into a simple matter of seconds.
A Better Finder Rename is ideally suited for Macintosh webmasters, users who need to transfer files from Windows or UNIX, digital camera owners, as well as for all other Macintosh users who deal with large numbers of files, such as image collections.
Major Features:
- Stunningly simple
- The user interface is designed from ground up to support even the most complex renaming tasks without sacrificing ease and speed of use. Simply drag the files you want to rename straight from the Finder into the large preview table or the application icon.. or use our Finder context menu and hot key.
- Instant Preview feature eliminates guesswork and costly errors and helps you find the right settings quickly and accurately by providing as-you-type feedback.
- Yet devastatingly effective
- A Better Finder Rename's huge array of renaming options are organized into 7 intuitive categories that cover all the text, character, position, conversion and truncation features that you would expect from a great file renamer. On top of this, A Better Finder Rename provides more advanced features that answer the prayers of many professionals and hobbyists alike.
- Photographers in particular will find the advanced sequence number and date & time features a joy to behold. A Better Finder Rename knows how to extract EXIF shooting date and time information from your digital camera images and exploit them in creating sequence numbers or adding time and date information to the file name. Support for all major RAW formats (including JPEG, CRW, CR2, THM, NEF, TIFF, RAJ, ORF , MRW, DNG, PEF, SRF, etc.) extends this to professional photographers. Version 8 now also deals gracefully with multiple shots captured in the same second.
- System administrators, web masters and other power users will appreciate the presence of advanced features, such as regular expression support, conversion to Windows NTFS/SMB compatible names, the ability to import file names from a database, a spreadsheet or any other source that can produce plain or tab-delimited text files. Finally, it allows you to save a record of the current and new file names to facilitate tracking your files.
- Music lovers will be delighted by our MP3/AAC renaming feature that allows you to exploit the id3 meta-data tags embedded in your music files to create your own naming scheme for your music collection. Meta-data information from mp3, aac and iTunes music store files are supported.
- Sometimes, however, a single renaming step is just not enough. Enter the multi-step renaming feature, that let's you combine and re-arrange multiple renaming steps into a single operation.
- For recurring tasks, A Better Finder Rename allows you to save common settings to droplet mini-applications and apply them automatically to all files dropped upon them. Version 8 adds support for saving and loading presets to facilitate the creation of your own renaming library.
- Beautiful inside & out
- Version 8 takes file renaming to a new level of sophistication by introducing an advanced multi-threaded renaming engine that solves many problems that other file renamers simply leave unaddressed. The database-backed renaming engine automatically resolves file name conflicts (when several files would share the same name) using a range of configurable parameters. The sequence in which files are renamed is optimized to avoid deadlocks which could occur when the order in which the files are renamed becomes significant.

GUidMachine 4.0.6
The first of a series of audio tools to create a new breed of music: Multitemporal Music Unbearable Devices brings you the first of a series of audio tools to create a new breed of music: more>> The first of a series of audio tools to create a new breed of music: Multitemporal Music
Unbearable Devices brings you the first of a series of audio tools to create a new breed of music: Multitemporal Music. Gone is the unique, boring BPM of old, we bring you the joy of using more than one BPM at the same time.
GUidMachine is the tool you need if you want to mix asynchronous streams of sound flowing in the same instance.
Main features:
- The Guidmachine is Step Sequencer combined with a sample player. The Step sequencer has 4 X 16 steps while the sample player can load 4 samples simultanuously. Nothing new so far, but what makes the GUIdMachine special are a few unique features. First of all you can easily shift any of the sequences up and down by any number of steps and you can decide the length of each raw. But even this is not news. Whats special about it is that you can randomize this modifications and so the pattern will never be constant if you want.
- The velocities can be randomized too so the accents will also change during time and make the loops more interesting.
- But the most unique feature is that the 4 sequences can play at 4 different BPMs!
- The Sample Player section is a fairly straight forward 4 voices sample player with a good envelope section and the possiblitly to change the pitch , the length, the start point all on the fly.
- It also features a 4 tap delay section, a master Vst insert and the possiblity to record audio files of what you are doing.

Lumen 1.1.0
Lumen - just light up checkpoints by bouncing, coloring, and maneuvering a laser beam through obstacles more>>
The objective is to light up checkpoints by bouncing, coloring, and maneuvering a laser beam through obstacles.
Although puzzles may seem easy at first sight, the can be quite a challenge. The careful attention to detail and the colorful graphics make Lumen a joy to play.
To play Lumen you must first load a puzzle by clicking on the "Load Puzzle" button at the top of the window.
Lumen comes with a folder of multiple puzzles to play, with more on the way. Once a puzzle has been loaded, use the pieces to the left to "active" all the checkpoints on the board by directing a laser of the same color through it.
First, pick a laser emitter and drag it onto the grid. Laser emitters can only be placed on the outside edge of the board, and only one emitter can be placed at a time. Once the laser has been placed, use mirrors to bounce that beam to the checkpoints. Click on a mirror to rotate it.
Next place filters on the grid to combine colors and activate differently colored checkpoints. An RGB color key is provided below :
Blue + Green = Turquoise
Green + Red = Yellow
Red + Blue = Violet
Blue + Green + Red = White
Enhancements:
- Slight bug fixes
- New file format. Now includes solution
- Small enhancements
