Lightweight and cross-platform sound library app that runs locally, powered by gpui library.
Forget about using file manager!

Join our discord btw!

yes, i love zed's UI

Features

  • Native
  • Multi-tag filtering
  • Multi-file-extension support
  • Built-in YouTube downloader
  • Built-in file converter

Getting started

  1. Go to Releases
  2. Download the installah (.msi for Windows, .dmg for MacOS)
  3. Run it

How it works?

Currently the app has 2 categories: Music and SFX (displayed as tabs on the titlebar). Each category must have its source — the actual folder that it watches.

The files of each category can have tags — those, and other data are stored in local SQLite database.

If there are files with the same name, but different extension — they are grouped into stems, which are displayed as rows in UI.

Spread a word

Just share with some editors you might think this is useful for =)

Why?

I've been editing for many years, and always struggled with certain problems:

There's no adequate sound library that runs locally.

  • They are either proprietary,
  • or, don't have multi-tag filtering
  • or, are subscription-based websites

This means you can't add your own sounds to library and tag it – now you have to rely on a third-party website.

Not only that, but now you also lose your precious time, because of extra steps to download the sound files.

...so, i've decided to break this vicious cycle, and therefore, make this app.
