A downloadable tool for Windows, macOS, and Linux

SLAMY is a super-simple sound effect library manager with an equally simple sound mixer built-in for quick edits.

Take your collection of sound bits from the file system into the app for fast filtering and quick preview. Find a sound you like, but it needs a little trim of the top? Just add it to the mixer and cut the excess, add fading, or even layer together multiple sounds!

Features

Convert your files and folders into library

Acquired quite an archive of sound effect packs, but sorting through them to find the one you want is a chore? Just drop every file and folder into SLAMY! Search through file names like keywords, and use folder names as collections — to find just the sound you need.

Do quick edits without leaving the app

SLAMY has nothing on Audacity... But if all you need is to trim a bit of silence at the end, or crop that specific bit in the middle and fade the rest, you can do that with just a couple of clicks directly in the app! Even better, you can mix two or more sounds together just as easily.

Get creative with audio effects

Taking full advantage of the underlying audio engine, SLAMY lets you tune and enhance sound effects with many standard effects and filters! It can be a little intimidating at first, but by playfully dragging knobs up and down you'll quickly get the idea behind each effect.

Set aside interesting effects for later

Sometimes you go through the library in search of something particular — only to stumble on a sound that might work for a different task or project later on. In SLAMY you can easily compile these into sets, add notes for future you, and store them for later!

It really is simple and basic

This project started from the need to do exactly these few things, and nothing else. While an occasional extra feature may find its way here and there, that's the goal and that's what SLAMY does the best!

Community and support

SLAMY is an open and community-made project. Your participation is very welcome in any shape and form!

Known issues

There are some as-of-now unresolvable issues which you should be aware of:

  • A stereo audio device is required for exports to work in the Mixer. Godot has a bug in the recorder filter which prevents recording from working when 3.1, 5.1, or 7.1 device is being used. If you export and hear only silence in the file, that's probably the reason why.
  • Performance gets choppy if you try to resize the Library view after scrolling down the list (the farther you're along the list, the worse it gets). This is due to the implementation of tree/table elements in Godot, and at this time we can only recommend scrolling up to the top, or weathering those hangs.

Hey! What do you mean?

(1 edit)

I didn’t expect Enter to be the play button, I thought it would be spacebar by default. Is there an option to change it? My hand usually rests closer to spacebar than enter

The reason it’s Enter and not Space is because you can type in the text filter and navigate/play at the same time, and that’s intentional. The spacebar is needed by the text filter to split up keywords. So it doesn’t have to be Enter, but it cannot be Space, and Enter feels like the best alternative to me.

Nice tool! But it doesn't support multiple selection, so when I changed the sound directory, I wasn't sure what to do. I wanted to remove multiple items from the list at once, but that doesn't seem possible.

That is true, it doesn’t have large-scale file manipulation capabilities. Sorry.

A very nice tool, thanks for making & sharing it! The only functionality missing for me is “collecting” (copying) all sound files referenced in a set to a directory. To my ethernal shame, I asked ChatGPT to write me a Windows batch file that does this (I really hate writing Windows batch files). Now I can just run slamy-collect.bat MySet.slaset and I get a neat collection with the sound files.

Ah, that’s a very nice idea for a feature! I’ll log it in, thanks <3

Only been using the tool for about an hour now and shared it with several other people. Really useful just for putting together a library.

One thing I am trying to figure out is you you mention cropping and trimming but I am not sure how to manage that. I have found how to move the fades. I am going to own it as a me thing so if you can point out the obvious I’d appreciate it!

Hey! So you adjust fades by dragging the circles at the top of the track region, right? To trim the track, you move the vertical line that the circle rests on. And if you grab the middle area between all the handles, you can move the region on the timeline left and right.

(sorry for an imgur link, something is wrong with video uploads in comments on itch)

In the upcoming version you’ll also be able to ctrl+click to set left and right ends of the trimmed region, and right click to align the region with 0:00. Should be up this week.

Ah! I see now. I had move the circle so it was a fade but I had no clue that it as grab the line. Thanks!

Awesome little tool, it does exactly what it needs to as easily as it can. The ui makes is toyish and feels like something Nintendo would make. ps would love filters!

(+1)

Good news, per-track filters are on the issue list! https://codeberg.org/YuriSizov/slamy/issues/15

Not sure if I’m going to tackle that now or some other time, but at least I know how I want them to be implemented overall.

Aaand as of 1.2 we now have a bunch of filters and effects! All that Godot provides, really :)

This is sick! Wonderful design. Feels nostalgic and it's absolutely useful

Thank you for making this!!
