"""
USAGE:
morphagene_ableton.py -w <inputwavfile> -l <inputlabels> -o <outputfile>'
Instructions in Ableton:
Insert locators as splice markers in your project (Create > Add Locator)
Export Audio/Video with
Sample Rate: 48000 Hz
Encode PCM: enabled
File Type: WAV
Bit Depth: 16
Save your Ableton project.
The associated Ableton Live Set .als-file will serve as the inputlabels argument
Used to convert Ableton Locators from an Ableton Live Set file on .WAV files into
single 32-bit float .WAV with CUE markers within the file, directly
compatible with the Make Noise Morphagene.
Does not require input file to be 48000Hz, only that the Ableton label matches
the .WAV file that generated it, and that the input .WAV is stereo.
See the Morphagene manual for naming conventions of output files:
