Overview

The Similar Samples tab surfaces the most sonically similar samples in your library whenever you play a sample — no searching required.

​
How It Works

Play any sample from anywhere in the app and the Similar Samples tab updates automatically with the closest matches. Similarity is based on a semantic understanding of the sound itself — an AI classification embedding produced during the Classified stage that captures what the sample actually sounds like, not just its tempo, key, or filename. Two samples with very different metadata can rank as highly similar if they share the same sonic character.
Keep the Similar Samples tab open alongside the Library. Every sample you audition becomes a starting point for finding related sounds.

​
Using Similar Samples

  1. Open the Similar Samples tab in your layout
  2. Play any sample from anywhere in the app
  3. The tab immediately populates with the closest matches from your library
Each result includes the same playback controls and context menu as the main Library — audition, favorite, drag to your DAW, or open in the AI chat without switching tabs. The standard multi-select shortcuts work here too: pick a batch of similar samples and drag the whole set into your DAW or bulk-edit through the selection bar.

​
Similarity Scoring

Results are ranked by similarity score. A higher score means the sample sits closer to what you played in the AI’s understanding of sound — sharing the same sonic character, texture, and instrumentation rather than matching on filename or tags.
Samples have to reach the Classified stage before they appear in Similar Samples. If a sample is missing from results, check the Library status panel — it may still be queued for classification. Right-click the directory and choose Classify samples to prioritize it.
