Problem
Music producers accumulate vast libraries of samples, loops, and project files across multiple folders and hard drives, making it difficult to find the right sound or revisit past work. Browsing through DAW projects is slow because relevant file information is hidden inside binary project formats, forcing producers to open each project individually to identify it.
Solution
Tuva is a desktop application that organizes and indexes music production files locally, giving producers instant search and browsing across their entire sound library. It automatically tags audio and MIDI files with metadata such as key, BPM, and file type, and it can extract embedded project information from DAW files to enable fast project previews without launching the DAW. Users can find similar sounds by analyzing audio characteristics, shuffle through their collection for inspiration, and build custom collections and favorites. The application works with all major DAWs including Ableton, FL Studio, Logic, Cubase, and Reaper, and keeps all files on the user's local device, ensuring privacy and offline access.
