I just thought that I should share it here.
If you need a sample browser for your wave files, the best option I ever saw is Crypton Mutant:
https://sonicwire.com/mutant/download

The page is in Japanese, but worry not, the software itself has English interface.

I think Crypton (or whoever) developed it for their own sample libraries, but it works with any wave samples.
It can show you BPM and key from acidized wave files. In addition you can add your own tags, categorize by instrument and genre. And of course it gives you quick search function. Probably the best sample browser I ever saw on PC.

Features (Google Translate version):
"MUTANT" (free version) features

New! 32bitWAV, AIFF support
Added drag & drop to MUTANT

I'll try it for sure. Been searching for a better sample player than my current one.

Thanks for share.

Just raised this thread from the cold grave but I've just tried Mutant and it's great! Incredibly useful utility.

Thanks for the link. Is there another version than 2.01? Audio works fine, but there are white bars and tearing/artifacts next to the trash tab when i resize the Browser window. I'm on Win XP SP3. Tried different video card settings, didn't help. Any idea?

Solved it! Had to install the font MS UI Gothic (msgothic.ttc)

You guys know of a similar type program that will also let you pitch sample/playback instantly over midi keyboard?

NO IMPORTING of Samples needed. Just click and play. ???

none that i know of, except sample vstis.

however, resonic pro will most likely allow that.

Hi, I use windows 7 64bit and had this sampler installed for a while and since yesterday it suddenly stopped working, it does not load samples.

When I point it to sample folder, folder gets imported but it shows 0 samples in folders? (.wav)....
... what could have happened to it?
TIA

It is a glitch in Alpha 70x. -link-removed-
The next update will fix this and several other issues that came along with it.

You're way off, I don't even have your Resonic alpha installed

I was talking about MUTANT sample player.
The problem was samples got erased by "accident", nothing to do with Mutant.
