01 / MANAGE YOUR LIBRARY

Sample packs pile up. Folder names multiply. Finding a sound starts to depend on remembering where you saved it.

BOTH TRUE brings those folders into one library and helps you browse by musical category. Keep the folder structure you know, search across the collection, or go straight to the kind of sound you need.

You can correct a category yourself when a sound belongs somewhere else.

02 / FIND BY SOUND

Choose a sound from your library as a reference. BOTH TRUE finds related samples across folders and packs, regardless of how they were named.

Follow the overall character, timbre, rhythm, or movement. Hear a result, make it the next reference, and keep exploring.

The sound you want may already be in your collection. This is how you reach it.

  1. 01

    OVERALL CHARACTER

    Find sounds that share the overall feel of your reference.

  2. 02

    TIMBRE

    Follow tone and texture.

  3. 03

    RHYTHM

    Follow rhythmic behavior.

  4. 04

    MOVEMENT

    Follow how a sound changes over time.

03 / ABLETON LIVE

A sample that sounds promising in the library still has to work in your arrangement. BOTH TRUE's Ableton Live workflow is designed to let you make that decision inside the track.

Ableton Live Bridge delivery is upcoming; it is not in the current download.

  1. 01 / SELECT

    Select a sample clip in Live. BOTH TRUE uses it as the reference for finding alternatives in your library.

  2. 02 / TRY

    Choose a candidate and press TRY to hear it at the target position in your arrangement. Move to another candidate and keep listening. TRY is temporary; CANCEL returns to the original.

  3. 03 / REPLACE

    When one works, press REPLACE to commit the choice.

For an Arrangement clip, choose SINGLE to work on the selected clip, or MATCH to work on matching clips on the same track. MATCH identifies them by the same source file and Clip name.

TRY and REPLACE require Ableton Live and the BOTH TRUE Bridge. Library management and sound search work without Ableton Live.
