A sound becomes an instrument.
Move through a real waveform, spread grains across pitch and stereo space, and shape grain size and density in the standalone app.
Slice by transient. Play by feel.
Detect and move 16 transient-aware slices, perform them chromatically from pads or the keyboard, and sync the current sample to the AUv3 instrument.
Sample Anything. Search everything.
On Mac, opt in to capture the last minute of system audio without routing. Point Sample Brain at folders you choose and search local filenames, folders, formats, and measured duration.
Up to 128 preallocated grain voices use deterministic native Swift DSP with a Hann envelope, pitch, reverse probability, position jitter, density, and stereo spread.
Detect 16 transient-aware cue points, move markers directly on the real PCM-derived waveform, and perform them from chromatic pads.
On macOS, an optional shortcut freezes the last minute of system audio from an in-memory ring so you can granulate or auto-slice it. The app receives audio only and does not receive or store screen frames.
Index folders you choose into an on-device SQLite FTS5 library, then search filenames and folders with measured format and duration filters. Samples and queries are never uploaded.
Trigger the standalone app’s current 16 slices from MIDI in compatible macOS and iPadOS hosts, with automatable gain and reverse, saved state, and a compact native interface.
