How it works

Using Library in Studio

A practical loop — not a feature checklist.

  1. 01

    Index folders

    Point Studio at sample roots on your machine. Nothing is uploaded to the cloud.

  2. 02

    Search

    Filter by name and skim waveform previews in the browser.

  3. 03

    Drag in

    Drop onto an Arrangement lane or a Session audio slot — ingest into the project.

  4. 04

    Reuse

    Recents keep the last hits you touched one click away.

Local

Your folders, your sounds

The Library indexes paths you choose. Studio previews and places files — it doesn't silo them in a proprietary vault.

Session

Drop straight into clip slots

Session View audio slots accept Library drags so sketching stays fast.

Arrangement

Or place on the timeline

Need linear structure? Drop the same sample onto an Arrangement track and keep editing.

Related Studio surfaces

Studio is one product — these views share tracks, mixer, and devices.

  • Timeline

    Arrangement

    Arrangement View is the linear timeline where songs take shape. Place audio and MIDI clips on tracks, set loops and tempo, and keep the mixer beside you while you build structure.

  • Clips & scenes

    Session View

    Session View is a clip grid for sketching and performing. Tracks run as columns, scenes as rows. Fill slots, launch a scene, and keep returns and Main sticky while you explore — without committing every idea to the timeline first.

  • Notes

    MIDI & piano roll

    Open the piano roll on a MIDI clip and reshape notes without leaving Studio. Draw, select, or slice; fold to scale; ride velocity and probability; or let the Studio agent sketch a pass you still own.

  • Levels

    Mixer

    The mixer isn't a place you escape to — it's a rail beside Arrangement and a strip under Session columns. Balance, mute, solo, and send without breaking the idea.

  • Plugins

    Devices & hosting

    Every track has a device chain. Load Rewire devices and scanned VST3s, open editors, audition while the transport runs, and bounce in place when a sound lands.

  • Separation

    Stems

    Stem sessions turn a source into focused layers inside Studio. Mute, solo, and level each stem, then pull pieces onto arrangement tracks when the idea lands.

FAQ

About Library

Where do library samples live?
Samples stay in folders you index on disk. Studio browses and previews them — it doesn't upload your library to the cloud.
Which formats can I browse?
WAV, MP3, AIFF, and FLAC are supported in the sample browser.
