Ok, forgive me, I just read the plug-in request faQ, I'm sorry I hadn't seen it before I posted.

I'm looking for something like this for my own use. I'd pay $30 bucks for a plug on the windows side that covered those features of audio finder. which I know in your fact you said don't ask for a plug like 'xyz'...
I just cannot find anything on the windows side that fills this niche, stand alone or vst. windows users need something we can open up inside other apps as well as stand alone that can audition samples, organize samples, and edit samples. I'm talking about something that is half sample editor and half sample librarian.
specificly these are the features I'm in need of.

1. sample filing and auditioning (doesn't have to be at the host tempo as a matter of fact I'd preffer that it was not so that the sample could be heard in it's original sound.

2.bpm detection
3.cut,trim,loop, truncate
4.volume control on the auditioner
5. read and save to various formats, so I could load an mp3 file cut out of it and save to wav if wanted.

I don't even know what else that's why I mentioned the audiofinders features.

is there anything that already exist like this or would it be very useful for the windows platform?

that DOES look mighty nice. I'm just now getting into using samples more & that would sure come in handy.

Of course, you could just use Live

funny you should say that, I was just thinking how conveinient that would be, I'd rather have something that didn't play back files at project tempo though.

why would you want that? In Live you can hear straight away whether it's gonna sound decent shifted off it's original BPM.

Not slaggin, just curious. I'm a sample retard for the most part. I just got Live 3 a few days ago & I can't f**king believe how cool it is. It's got 3 root-assignable folders for loading samples, so it's not hard to keep track of everything. I've got a couple thousand samples on the HD & I went in there today & cleaned it all up (more or less) & now I have loops assigned to folder 1 & single hits assigned to folder 2 with the option to do whatever I wanna with folder 3.

I was deliberately loading BPM loops that were WAY off from the current BPM sequence, & I was f**king amazed at how good it sounded without any artifacts or whatever. Truly bad-ass piece of code Ableton has made, & v4 is gonna be sicker than sick.

so true, and honestly most of it would end up in Live
anyway, but something that would allow me to work with other apps in addition to live is kind of important, how much I don't really know though cause everyday everything ends up in Live

oh and sometimes you just need to hear it like the original, I wish live gave us the option to destructively edit samples in the clip view, that would save me alot of harddrive space and time reediting stuff in soundforge or whatever

this is nothing like anything we'd code... try asking someone else... we code small and fun plugins, not music file librarians

oooh I get squashed by one of my favorite software developers, it hurts it hurts...

but just think Bram, a vst/Librarian/waveditor. methinks this does not exist.

actually we do make some stuff kinda like this. check the utilities page at http://mda.smartelectronix.com The samplists CD player is good for getting samples of CD's and the Wave's properties extension integrates into the explorer and gives useful wave file info...not quite the iced audio finder though
