About this asset

Do you already own the sound you're about to download?
With file names alone you can't tell. Sound Finder finds sounds by what they sound like, not what they're named.

Type a plain-English description - "punchy kick", "glass shatter", "warm analog pad" - and get ranked matches from your own audio files in seconds. No tagging, no manual metadata, no naming discipline required.

Can't put it into words? Search another way:

  • Drag a reference clip onto the search bar to find sounds like it
  • Hold the mic and make the sound: (hum a melody, tap a rhythm, do beatbox) and search by what you recorded
  • Record your PC's audio: a Youtube clip, a game, a reference track playing through your speakers... find the closest matches in your library!

It works on the audio already in your project and on external sample libraries. Point it at a folder anywhere on disk, search it in place, and the file is copied into your project only when you pick it. A 100 GB SFX collection never bloats your repo.

✅ Everything runs 100% on your machine: no cloud service, no API keys, no subscriptions, no per-search cost. Your audio never leaves your computer, and it works offline.

✅ Nothing ships in your builds, the entire pipeline is 100% editor only!

Technical details

  • Describe-it search: type what you're after in plain language and get ranked results.
  • Search by example: drag any clip to find similar sounds.
  • Search by recording: capture from a microphone or from your system's audio output and search by it.
  • Project + external library search: index audio inside your project or any folder on disk; external picks are copied in on demand (WAV, AIFF, MP3, OGG).
  • In-Inspector picker: replaces the default picker on AudioClip / AudioResource fields; AudioSource supported via right-click.
  • Built-in clip cropping before import.
  • Fully on-device & offline: all processing runs locally, GPU-accelerated. No server, no account, no data leaves your machine.
  • Editor-only utility: nothing is added to your runtime build.

⚠️ Requires a compute-shader-capable GPU (no CPU fallback). See compatibility notes.

Compatibility

Render pipelines supported in each Unity version
Unity version Built-in URP HDRP Custom
6000.0.60f1 Compatible Compatible Compatible Compatible

⚠️ Requires a GPU with compute shaders (SystemInfo.supportsComputeShaders), no CPU fallback. Tested on Windows with a dedicated GPU.
⚠️ Memory: about 6 GB of VRAM and RAM combined, not 6 GB of each. What doesn't fit in VRAM moves to RAM: same results, slower text search. Editor-only, works with Built-in, URP and HDRP. Tested and working on a device with 8GB RAM and 512MB VRAM.
