Curate Sample Manager information
What is Curate Sample Manager?
Curate is a sample manager built for producers who'd rather make music than manage files. It brings your entire library into one place — Splice, LANDR, Loopcloud, purchased sample packs and your own recordings, from any folder or external drive — with your existing folder structure left untouched.
- Intelligent Tagging: Custom-trained ML models automatically detect instrument, genre, key & scale, BPM, and one-shot vs. loop. Every tag can be manually edited.
- Semantic Search: Search by meaning, not metadata: natural queries like "sad piano on a rainy day" or "punchy 808 kick" return instant results across large libraries.
- Similarity Search: Pick any sample and instantly find sounds that are alike. Perfect for finding variations of a kick you love or an alternative to a sound you've overused.
- Galaxy Visualization: Explore your library as an interactive map where similar sounds cluster together, color-coded by instrument. Rediscover forgotten samples.
- Shortlist: Stash candidates while browsing, then compare and audition them side by side before making your pick.
- Crates: Organize favorites into unlimited personal collections by project, genre or mood.
- Pitch & Tempo Preview: Audition any sample with real-time pitch shifting and tempo adjustment to hear how it fits your project.
- Duplicate Finder: Scans your whole library and catches renamed copies across different folders and drives.
- Drag & Drop into any DAW: Runs standalone alongside Ableton Live, FL Studio, Logic Pro, Bitwig, REAPER, Pro Tools and others.
