Preparing samples for the Nebulae v2

The Qu-Bit Nebulae v2 loads from a USB drive into an /audio/ directory and is easygoing about containers, reading WAV, AIFF, FLAC, and OGG at 48 kHz, 24-bit stereo. The practical limit is memory: around 75 MB loaded at once, with five minutes of live input buffered.

Because it accepts several formats, the main prep is keeping the loaded set under that memory budget and at a consistent rate. SampleStack converts mixed sources to 48 kHz stereo, organizes the /audio/ folder, and flags when a set runs past what the module can hold.
