About Sononym
Sononym is a sample browser that offers a fresh perspective on how sounds can be explored and organized. The software is available for Windows, Linux, and MacOS. Sononym extracts a great deal of information from your samples and puts this information at your fingertips, including 'exotic' properties that you might not find elsewhere, perceived brightness, crest factor, and timbre, to name a few. Combine this with powerful tools for searching, filtering, and sorting samples, and you might just fall in love with your sample collection all over again. Similarity search enables you to find similar-sounding samples in your sample collection. Basically, pick any sound as input and "see where it takes you", finding variations has never been this easy. The software can even record live audio and use these recordings to find new samples. Duplicate detection identifies duplicate samples across your libraries.
