It really makes css work a bliss, simplifies the structure a lot and only requires that javascript as pre-compiler thing.ĮDIT: Impulse responses are not so nicely categorized. If you want to speed up your css development, maybe have a look at less. is it based on chromium or webkit? I tried some “gpu enabling webkit css tricks” in sononym index.css, but did not notice any difference in gui speed, like -webkit-transform: translateZ(0px) Well I guess you had all these ideas already One more thing is you could run one crawler per CPU core, since it seem to access the drive with lot of pauses, then intercommuicate between the crawlers so only one accesses the drive at once (while one processes data, the other accesses drive).ītw. I wonder if you could add some caching mechanism, reducing startup time, like scanning just with dir/“ls” instead whole files or so? Anyway, once it was started, it is a bliss to use. Maybe it gets slow as soon as there are multiple libs? Then I moved all my sample dirs to a brand new evo 860 ssd into one single library only (90k samples now) and the startup time is down to 2 s… Weird. No, I mean I have about ~100k samples and when I start Sononym it takes like 50 seconds until I finally can scroll the files in the library tab, on a pretty slow HDD. Libraries just need to initialize their databases… When you launch, are you looking at the file browser (explore tab) or libraries?įor the file browser, it needs to index files. I’ve been thinking of setting up a repository of some kind, a place we could exchange, rate and discuss sounds.īut hard-to-categorize samples will continue to be difficult, and only the addition of traditional (text-based) metadata will be able to solve this -Īnd then, of course, the ability to launch a similarity search - that feature makes sounds discoverable, no matter what their categories might be That’s nice though, because that “snarey” kick could then turn up in a search for both Kicks and Snares. You might have noticed that sometimes, the opposite is true as well: samples having multiple categories. (internally, the little bit of various categories are still factored in when computing similarity, etc.) Re-analysing the sound will not change this.Īnd the lack of a category most likely is the intended behavior: in your case, it’s probably a sound that had theĬharacter of multiple categories but none of them very strong - in such a case, we decided that results areįuzzy enough as they are, so in case of multiple “doubtful” predictions, we have chosen to not display the category The process is idempotent, same input will lead to the same result. I’ve some in my collection, which are not categorized. We believe that picking out sounds of interest and making them available elsewhere should be an effortless thing to do.Is it possible to"relearn" samples again. You can freely organize, tag and rename your bookmarked files in projects, which are automatically exported to a folder of your choice. Sononym combines bookmarking and exporting into a single workflow. In addition, all sounds are classified as either looped or non-looped (one-shot) sounds. The default set of categories in Sononym are broadly based around electronic music production and describe distinctive groups of sounds such as ‘snare drums’ or ‘synth pads’. While analyzing your samples, the software uses machine learning to categorize the content. similarity across pitch or timbre) should matter. For more control, you can determine how much individual aspects (e.g. Basically, pick any sound as input and “see where it takes you” – finding variations has never been this easy. Similarity search enables you to find similar-sounding samples in your sample collection. This ensures blazing fast access as you search, filter and sort your way through vast amounts of samples. – is collected from your files and stored in a database. The software is available for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X.Īsk Sononym to analyze a folder, and all available information – tempo, pitch, amount of noise, harmonic content, etc. Sononym is a sample browser that offers a fresh perspective on how sounds can be explored and organized.
