    All is in the title ! :)

    I use Soundly mainly for SFX, and recently ADSR manager for drums but i would like to know what's your favorite way to manage your audio files/ libraries...

    I heard about Samplism and it seems to be great, any users here?

    Thanks !

    I use this for samples -> https://resonic.at/
    Lightning fast and super lightweight
    My only hope is that they make more basic editing functions for it, so I could ditch Audacity

    Resonic is heaven.
    I also use Total Commander for file managing.

    For Mac the best is Samplism but I never see it around.
    On the sister site there's a request a year old but no upload yet... :dunno:

    Even Resonic looks good but it's just for Win. :snuffy:

    From what I see Resonic looks really nice! Does free (player) version have search function?

    Yes, I think it has, but I think it´s limited, I´ve been long time early supporter(Resonic Pro), so can´t remember differences.

    I bought Audiofinder a long time ago, and the detect sample key works when I click on an individual sample but doesn't work for searching in a folder which samples are in the key G for example. Never could get it to work for some reason. It's driven me nuts and that is the sole purpose for which I bought it for. Have you experienced any issues with this?

    I keep my library management simple:

    Throw everything on a hard drive, worry about it later.

    When you got tons of samples(i mean terabytes) and you want to audition them immediately

    Don't all DAWs do this? I just click them in the browser in FL and....they play. Can't think of a more efficient way to do auditions...... :D
