With smart and custom tags, ADSR Sample Manager allows you to search and listen to your full sample library directly in your DAW (Digital Audio Workstation). MIDI allows you to preview any sample in your library inside the context of your track, or you can drag audio directly into your project. Standalone and plug-in options are now included.
