Description
Quick—what sound is the sample with filename asdf_#12C.wav? You may not know, but COSMOS does. COSMOS uses an AI neural networks engine to analyze all the samples on your hard drive, and then categorizes and auto-tags the instrument, timbre, style, key, BPM, and sonic characteristics (loop or one-shot, dry or wet, and much more) in its database.
Need to find a saturated kick? Just type “saturated” and “kick” in COSMOS, and all your saturated kicks will show up, no matter what the files are actually named. Need to find a bright reverby drum loop in 120 BPM? Or a saturated synth sample in F#-minor with a cinematic feel? Just choose the appropriate tags, and COSMOS will deliver the samples you’re after, instantly.
Multiple Search Options
Search by Instrument, Tags, Key, and/or BPM. Or, enter a search term. Start a broad search like “keys,” then narrow it down to the keyboard type, and finally, choose from multiple sonic characteristics.
View by Waveform or List
When you need to see a waveform with a short description, choose Waveform view. Or, choose List for more details about a given sample. In either case, just click to audition, and then drag a sample into your sampler.
Explore the COSMOS
The COSMOS view creates “clusters” of related one-shots like kick, snare, plucked notes, and so on. Prioritize views of different characters, then click on dots in the clusters to audition—and find—the right sample in seconds.
Seamless Integration with the Waves CR8 Sampler
COSMOS works with any sampler, but integrates especially seamlessly with the Waves CR8 Creative Sampler. COSMOS opens conveniently from within the sampler. Found a sample you like? Double-click and it will load instantly in a CR8 sample slot.
