Everything you need tofind, shape and use your sounds
Organize samples, tracks and MIDI. Find what fits, build playable kits, prepare DJ sets and move the result into your creative workflow.
Spend Less Time Digging Through Folders
Bring samples, finished tracks and MIDI into one fast browser, then search the way musicians actually think.
Samples, tracks and MIDI
Keep each kind of file in its own focused library and switch between them without leaving AudioVault.
Search in plain language
Search filenames, folders, notes and tags, or ask for something musical such as "dark 808s" or "airy vocal loops."
Find sounds like this
Choose any sample or track and reveal close alternatives from your own collection. Adjust whether tone, rhythm or pitch matters most.
Match a reference
Drop in an outside file to find similar sounds you already own, or match samples to a reference track by key and tempo.
Explore visually
Move through visual maps, dashboards and key views to rediscover useful sounds you forgot you had.
Clear out clutter
Find identical samples, reclaim disk space and prevent duplicate copies of a song from appearing in the same DJ set.
The Details You Need, Added Automatically
AudioVault listens locally and fills in the musical information that filenames leave out.
Key and scale
Filter for harmonically useful samples and tracks without checking every file one by one.
Tempo and energy
Match loops to your session and arrange tracks with a natural rise and fall in intensity.
Sound character
Narrow a search by brightness and other sonic qualities, and separate loops from one-shots automatically.
AI-assisted tags
Turn vague filenames into useful categories such as instrument, genre, mood, playing style and effects.
Works without an AI account
Local organization still works when no provider is connected. For richer tags, use Anthropic, OpenAI or Gemini; the direct edition also supports an existing Claude subscription.
Editable results
Correct tags, cue points and notes whenever your musical judgment says something different.
Know What Is Really in the File
Inspect questionable downloads without leaving your library or reaching for another utility.
Waveform or spectrogram
Switch views while playback and seeking keep working, or open a larger view for a closer look.
Quick quality estimate
See a practical hint about the likely source quality instead of interpreting every graph yourself.
Fake-lossless warning
Catch a supposed WAV or FLAC that shows clear signs of having come from a lower-quality source.
Built to avoid false alarms
Naturally dark recordings and short one-shots are not treated as bad files simply because they lack top end.
Turn Your Library Into Something Playable
Move from a useful search to a kit, pattern or finished file without rebuilding everything by hand.
Drag straight into your DAW
Preview and trim a sample, then drag it into Ableton, Logic, Pro Tools or Finder like any native Mac file.
Ableton kits and sets
Export Drum Racks (.adg) and Live Sets (.als) loaded with sounds from your library.
Maschine groups and projects
Build Maschine kits with optional sample copying so the result can travel with the project.
Control Ableton Live directly
Connect to a running Live session and build in it: place samples and MIDI on the timeline at a given bar, create tracks, edit individual notes, set up buses and sends, adjust plugins, and write automation. Works from AudioVault or from an AI assistant such as Claude. Requires Live 11 or 12 and the direct download.
Balanced pad layouts
Start with a playable spread of kicks, snares, hats and useful variations instead of rows of near-duplicates.
MIDI patterns
Included in AudioVault: create genre-ready patterns with swing, human feel and variation, then export MIDI or an Ableton set using your own samples.
Voice and sound effects
Optional ElevenLabs generation requires your own account and API key; provider credits, quotas and usage charges are separate. Provider responses are MP3 128 kbps on every plan, MP3 192 kbps on Creator+, and 24-bit/44.1 kHz PCM on Pro+. AudioVault saves generated clips as WAV.
Shape a Set Without Losing Your Taste
Use key, BPM and energy as helpful guides while every creative decision remains yours.
Chapters and notes
Break a set into warm-up, build, peak and close sections, add notes and move tracks freely.
Magic Sort
Create a smoother starting order using harmonic compatibility, tempo and the energy shape you choose.
Next-track ideas
Ask for compatible options from any point in a set, or fill a gap without browsing the whole collection again.
Describe a set
Give AudioVault a brief and review a suggested set with named chapters, track order and notes before saving it.
Try a variation
Clone a set with similar-track swaps so you can explore another direction without touching the original.
USB-ready export
Export tracks in order, optionally grouped by chapter and numbered so the running order survives the copy.
Your Audio Stays on Your Mac
AudioVault is a desktop app, not a cloud library. Online services are optional and clearly separated.
No audio uploads
Your audio files and their analysis remain on your computer.
No desktop-app tracking
The AudioVault app contains no usage analytics, crash reporting or behavior tracking.
Optional AI
When enabled, AI tagging sends filenames and detected details to your chosen provider, never the audio itself.
No required account
Start the trial and organize files without creating an AudioVault account or entering a card.
Clear online choices
Artwork lookup and optional ElevenLabs voice generation only connect when you configure your own provider credentials. Streaming sync is available in the direct edition.
