With the latest version, the Sounminer Programs now have a built-in effect rack to quickly and easily change sound material, try things out and, if it suits you, immediately render and create your new audio file.
A controller to slow down the playback speed has been around in the interface for a long time. There is a reverse switch, a time machine and more.
Thanks to Soundminer V6 PRO and Soundminer V6 PLUS, you can quickly change the pitch of sound or add some reverb - monitor or render the results instantly.
Soundminer V6 PRO comes fitted with powerful tools to manipulate sounds. You can change the pitch, the playback speed, simulate tape machine effects with your mouse, or load your favourite plugins into the audio playback.
As you can see, the possibilities are nearly endless in terms of changing sounds, noises, and effects to create new sounds. There are no limits to your creativity!
Soundminer allows you to monitor manipulations and sound alterations in real time. Slow down the playback speed and you'll hear an entire universe of sounds opening up. You can change sounds with the newly integrated Radium Sampler or, alternatively, transfer your new sound creation into your edit system - with or without effects.
Soundminer will then render the effect with your parameters into a new audio file that can be used directly in your edit system. Simple as that.
The Radium Sampler is a custom-designed tool for Soundminer V6 PRO that allows you to manipulate sounds and create new ones. The Radium Sampler is available for the first time with Soundminer V6 PRO and was developed with the help of sound designers.
The Radium Sampler contains five slots for the loading of sounds. Sounds are loaded directly from your Soundminer sound archive, allowing you to quickly and efficiently create new sounds with the sampler.
For this, you can use all the features that come with a sampler: modulators, amplitude manipulations, pitch shifting - it's like a big box of toys for sound creatives.
Soundminer made a lot of effort to standardise the metadata fields of all major global production music and sound labels. When you register new sounds or music files with Soundminer, Soundminer will extract the metadata from the audio files to guarantee compatibility with all major labels and to give access to all metadata fields.
The metadata standard stipulates that database tables for production music and sounds should be optimised. The tables for production music include explicit music-related fields like 'composer', 'mood', 'instruments used' or 'artist'. These fields are not relevant for sound archives and are hence not included in the sound tables, which makes searching through large databases faster.
But Soundminer also offers mixed layouts that include all standard metadata fields.
We recommend using this particular layout. Ultimately, though, it's up to the user to pick his/her preferred layout.
With Soundminer V6 PRO, there are many ways to work with metadata efficiently. Edit and change metadata with the integrated tools. Search and replace text, add categories to a pre-defined list, generate data fields based on other data fields, import pictures, text, and tables.
Soundminer V6 PRO is the software for you if you are struggling with metadata. Leave the struggling to Soundminer V6 PRO.
