LIBRARY TAB‌

Mixcraft’s Library tab contains thousands of loops, samples and sound effects, as well as number of song kits for royalty-free use within your own projects! Feel free to mix, loop, and edit them to your heart’s content. Mixcraft also offers direct browsing of Freesound.org’s massive online library of samples.

The Library tab includes categories and an easy-to-use search function that filter which sounds are currently displayed. This makes light work of navigating Mixcraft’s vast sound library. Following is a brief overview of each, but you can learn about them in detail in the subsections that follow.

LIBRARY

Found at the top level of the Library’s navigation are the Category Selection buttons. Here’s what they do:

The Book icon accesses Mixcraft’s huge onboard library of loops, samples, and sound effects. Book, library... get it? More info in the Mixcraft Sound Library Button section.

The Folder icon lets you add Windows Explorer directories, for fast and easy access to sound files for auditioning and adding to projects. More info in the Folder Buttonsection.

The Freesound icon allows online browsing of Freesound.org’s immense (and free!) sample library. More info in the Freesound.org Buttonsection.

Clicking on the Star next to any sound in the Library marks it as a favorite; clicking the Star icon displays all favorited sounds. More info in the Favorites Buttonsection.
