Install ORP. first.
Choose your platform on Downloads. On Mac, open the DMG and drag ORP. into Applications. On Windows, run Microsoft’s small .exe installer; installation and updates come through the Store. Then sign in to your ORP. account.
Mac / Windows downloads 01Add your folder.
Choose the folder containing your sample library with Add Folder. If your files live on an external drive, make sure it is connected.
02Let the analysis run.
ORP. scans your audio and adds it to your library. Type, BPM and key are estimated from the audio; analysis confidence varies by sound.
03Filter and preview.
Use search and type, BPM and key filters to narrow your choices. Select and play a sample to preview it. Save favorites or create collections to find it again.
04Discover something similar.
Choose Find similar in the sample menu to explore related sounds in your library. Audio Match helps find alternatives to a reference sound. Compare the results by ear.
05Drag it into your project.
Drag a sample from ORP. to a DAW that accepts file drops. Its source file must be accessible; reconnect an external drive if needed.
06Back up your library.
Use the backup tools in Settings to protect your library database. This does not replace a backup of the original audio files; back up your sample folders separately.
