Exporting:¶

-d, --driver AUDIODRIVER - Use the selected audio driver

[jack, alsa, pulseaudio, portaudio, auto]

-s, --song FILE - Load a song (*.h2song) at startup

-p, --playlist FILE - Load a playlist (*.h2playlist) at startup

-o, --outfile FILE - Output to file (export)

-r, --rate RATE - Set bitrate while exporting file

-b, --bits BITS - Set bits depth while exporting file

-k, --kit drumkit_name - Load a drumkit at startup

-I, --interpolate INT - Interpolation

[0:linear (default), 1:cosine, 2:third, 3:cubic, 4:hermite]

Example: h2cli -s /usr/share/hydrogen/data/demo_songs/GM_kit_demo1.h2song \

-d GMRockKit -d auto -o ./example.wav

Drumkit handling:¶

-i, --install FILE - install a drumkit (*.h2drumkit)

-c, --check FILE - validates a drumkit (*.h2drumkit)

against current drumkit format

-l, --legcay-check FILE - validates a drumkit (*.h2drumkit)

against current as well as legacy drumkit formats

-u, --upgrade FILE - upgrades a drumkit. FILE can be either

an absolute path to a folder containing a drumkit, an absolute path to a drumkit file (drumkit.xml) itself, or an absolute path to a compressed drumkit ( *.h2drumkit). If no target folder was specified using the -t option a backup of the drumkit created and the original one is upgraded in place. If a compressed drumkit is provided as first argument, the upgraded drumkit will be compressed as well.

-x, --extract FILE - extracts the content of a drumkit (.h2drumkit)

If no target is specified using the -t option this command behaves like --install.

-t, --target FOLDER - target folder the extracted (-x) or upgraded (-u)

drumkit will be stored in. The folder is created if it not exists yet.

Example: h2cli -c /usr/share/hydrogen/data/drumkits/GMRockKit

Miscellaneous:¶

-V[Level], --verbose[=Level] - Set verbosity level

[None, Error, Warning, Info, Debug, Constructor, Locks, 0xHHHH]

-v, --version - Show version info

-h, --help - Show this help message
