Find Similar

What it does

Select a sample you already have, and Find Similar surfaces other samples in your library that sound like it -- based on the actual audio content, not the filename or folder it's in.

What "similar" means here

This is audio-to-audio acoustic similarity, not a text search. You can't type a description like "dark punchy kick" and get results -- you select a real sample you already have, and the comparison happens against your library's actual sound.

How to use it

1. Select a sample, either from the browser grid or a point on the visual map.
2. Click FIND SIMILAR.
3. A list of up to 15 similar samples appears, each with its name and instrument type.

If nothing is selected yet, Smart Sample Manager will ask you to select a sample first. If your library is still being indexed, or it's the only sample in the library, you may see a message that no similar samples were found yet -- give the initial scan time to finish and try again.

What it doesn't do

• It doesn't accept a typed description or natural-language query.
• It doesn't search outside your indexed library.
• It doesn't modify, move, or rename any of your files.
