+# Ibekso Sampled Instrument
+
+## Description
+
+### Overview
+
+**Ibekso Sampled Instrument _(Ibksi)_** is meant to be used as a template for building sampled instruments with [JUCE](https://juce.com) 6.x framework.
+
+### Roadmap
+
+As **_Ibksi_** is meant to be a template, it will continue evolving and will try to reamin as modular as possible. The next features will be:
+- multimsampling support
+- add FXs
+- UI improvments
+- generic installation setup
+
+*If you have ideas or requests, do not hesitate to open issues in the repository.*

+## Installation
+
+### Building sources
+
+So far there is not automatic installer for **_Ibksi_**, you have to build the source through the [Projucer](https://docs.juce.com/master/tutorial_new_projucer_project.html).
+
+### Setup samples directory
+
+To setup your samples directory, you have to modify the `samplesDir` variable in the `UtilsFiles.h` --> `createSamplesInputStream()` [L15] so it points to the folder where you store your samples.
+
+By default, it is set as a regular MacOS installation at the following destination: `Library/Application Support/Ibekso/ibkSampledInstrument/Samples/`.
+
+```cpp
+auto samplesDir = juce::File::getSpecialLocation (juce::File::commonApplicationDataDirectory)
+                        .getChildFile ("Application Support")
+                        .getChildFile ("Ibekso")
+                        .getChildFile ("ibkSampledInstrument")
+                        .getChildFile ("Samples");
+```
+### Integrate your samples
+
+To integrate your own samples, you have 2 different options:
+1. Name your sample `os_synth.wav`
+2. Modify the its name in `PluginProcessor.cpp` --> `createSamplesInputStream()` [L37]. 
+
+```cpp
+std::unique_ptr<juce::AudioFormatReader> audioReader (wavFormat.createReaderFor (createSamplesInputStream ("os_synth.wav").release(), true));
+```
+
+Please note that only `.wav` files and one shot sampling are supported as of `v0.1.0`.
