Summary
SampleStack is a native macOS sample manager designed for Eurorack modules and hardware samplers. It helps organize, validate, and convert audio samples to the specific requirements of supported devices, enabling users to build multisample instruments and export them in various compatible formats.
Key Features
- Sample management with auto-detected module library structure, color-coded validation, tags, ratings, BPM, and key metadata.
- Multi-output support allowing conversion and copying from a single master library to over 30 hardware samplers and Eurorack modules, each with device-specific sample rate, bit depth, and folder layout.
- Multisample support to map samples across a keyboard with pitch detection, velocity layers, zones, and envelope shaping playable via MIDI or computer keyboard.
- Exports multisample instruments to SFZ, SoundFont 2, Decent Sampler (with artwork and controls), Ableton Sampler, or disting EX and NT formats.
- Non-destructive audio editing directly within the app with waveform zoom, fades, crop, split, splice markers, and transient detection.
- Built natively with SwiftUI, supporting macOS Light and Dark modes.
- Instant validation and troubleshooting of sample compatibility with target modules, using color-coded badges.
- Batch conversion of sample rate, bit depth, and channels to match device specifications.
Supported Instruments
Supports over 30 hardware samplers and Eurorack modules including popular devices like Make Noise Morphagene, ALM Squid Salmple, Elektron Digitakt II, 1010music Blackbox, Disting EX/NT, ER-301, Octatrack MKII, MPC One, Maschine+, and many more.
Usage and Workflow
SampleStack streamlines preparing samples for hardware by automatically validating and converting files to exact device specifications, managing complex folder structures and naming conventions, and exporting ready-to-use data to SD cards. Edits and conversions are non-destructive, preserving original files.
System Requirements and Availability
SampleStack runs on macOS 15 (Sequoia) or later, supporting both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs. It is available on the Mac App Store with a 7-day free trial; payment options include an annual subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase.
