Sample Scout is the all-in-one sample curation and export tool for fueling your hardware rigs and DAW projects. The keyboard-based set creation workflow lets you audition thousands of files in minutes. Build sets for projects, refresh sampler libraries, make sample packs. Use simple and precise editing tools to clip out the best sections of your material then quickly export to the required formats for every one of your devices in just a few clicks.

Sample Scout intelligently handles massive libraries with complex setups. Million-plus file counts, external drives, and network storage are never a bottleneck. Playback from any source is instant with a unique preload system that's light on memory.

The keyboard layout is optimized for speed and muscle memory. Use WASD to navigate in and out of folders and through files. Hear something you like? Press E to add it to your active set. You just keep exploring more audio without losing anything you've marked. Get into a flow quickly without disruptive stops, context switching, or losing track.

Click and drag to cut out choice sections — clips are pure metadata and only printed on export. Shape fades right in the clip. When you're ready, export with optional mono, normalization, limiting, high-pass filtering, or format conversion. Create a preset once, apply instantly whenever. Direct drag out to all major DAWs and applications.
