Need a simple "Sample audition" program VST or Standalone


Hey all,

I'm trying to find a simple feature that the big VST samplers dont seem to provide.  I used to use Vsampler and shortcircuit but there gone now.  My need is very simple and it actually doesn't even have to be a VST sampler as such.  Even a standalong program would be great.

All I want is to be able to select a sample (Wave file) from my HDD and immediatley audition it on my midi keyboard.  So whatever 1 sample I select is spanned across all keys and ready for realtime playback while I'm running my project in my DAW.

Can anyone recommend or suggest anything?

    Have you given Dropzone a try? Coupled with the media browser it should do what you need. Just drag and drop.

    Nice idea but its the simple highlight and play I'm after.  Any more steps in the process will cripple me when scanning through 100's of samples.

    which version of SC are you using? 1.5 seems to work fine for me in that regard. i have not tested with version 2
