Snapper ❤️ SoundFX
Snapper now adds an informer that communicates all metadata within WAV files to MacOS Spotlight, so you can search and find Sound FX metadata in the Finder. This includes, BEXT, Copyright, creator, annotations, comments etc. On top of that Snapper embeds the Universal Category System so you can look for synonyms and category explanations. Snapper displays the entire category and subcategory names, rather than their abbreviations. The Spotlight informer requires at least MacOS 10.14 Mojave. It takes a while for your library to be rescanned by spotlight, but you can trigger priority for you sound FX library by adding it’s top level folder to to the ‘privacy’ list in System Preferences Spotlight, and then removing it again form the list.
