Latest News, Product Listings and Discussion for Crypton Future Media.
English - Windows version 3.02 reviewed 2016-08-13 (with a few edits 2016-08-21 for clarity)
In the Reaper forum there was discussion about enhancing the media browser, which has some good features, but at version 5.20 is still somewhat minimal. A contributor suggested Crypton Mutant so I came here and tried it out.
This one really has some excellent features, and as it is currently free it's unbeatable. With a few tweaks and enhancements I would be glad to pay to support the developers a little more. Sonicwire is a soundware vendor so I think the intention is that the Mutant browser can take you to Sonicwire when you are browsing for sounds. Fortunately the integration is passive and there is no need to sign up with Sonicwire to manage your local sound libraries.
The description on the the Details page is pretty accurate. I'm just going to add some remarks of my own that go beyond it.
The sounds database appears to be kept in memory first, then managed in My Documents / Crypton / Mutant / Mutant_db / Mutant.db with an XML file storing the column widths, audio file types., etc.
I moved the executable there and it still works fine. You can create as many dbs as you want but they will all be in the Crypton folder.
