COSMOS Sample Finder
Description
Your samples are a creative treasure. But only if you can find the right ones – fast.
COSMOS brings all the one-shots and loops on your hard drive into one easy-to-search place. It uses advanced Waves Neural Networks technology in order to analyze, auto-tag, and sort your entire collection of samples into one unified database where you can easily find everything. No matter where you placed your samples, or how the files are named – COSMOS will find them for you.
COSMOS keeps you in the flow, so you don’t lose time or creativity. You can see all your samples visually laid out in front of you, in 3 accessible views: Waveform, List, and Cosmos. You can filter and search all your one-shots and loops by instrument, BPM, key, and even sonic characteristics such as brightness, saturation, and dynamics.
Need to find a saturated kick? Just type “saturated” and “kick” in COSMOS, and all your saturated kicks will show up, no matter what the files are actually named. Need to find a bright reverby drum loop in 120 BPM? Or a saturated synth sample in F#-minor with a cinematic feel? Just choose the appropriate tags, and COSMOS will deliver the samples you’re after, instantly.
You can easily audition your samples from within COSMOS, with just one click. Then just drag-and-drop the sample you want straight into your sampler or DAW.
COSMOS can open as a standalone app – or from within the Waves CR8 Creative Sampler, with which it integrates seamlessly for a super-fast and creative workflow.
As a bonus, COSMOS comes pre-packed with over 2500 one-shots and loops.
With COSMOS, you can finally search your entire collection of samples faster and easier than ever – without ever again needing to dig through multiple messy folders.
