COSMOS Sample Finder


Waves Complete v13 15.02.22 WiN MAC screenshot


Your samples are a creative treasure. But only if you can find the right ones – fast.
COSMOS brings all the one-shots and loops on your hard drive into one easy-to-search place. It uses advanced Waves Neural Networks technology in order to analyze, auto-tag, and sort your entire collection of samples into one unified database where you can easily find everything. No matter where you placed your samples, or how the files are named – COSMOS will find them for you.

COSMOS keeps you in the flow, so you don’t lose time or creativity. You can see all your samples visually laid out in front of you, in 3 accessible views: Waveform, List, and Cosmos. You can filter and search all your one-shots and loops by instrument, BPM, key, and even sonic characteristics such as brightness, saturation, and dynamics.

Need to find a saturated kick? Just type “saturated” and “kick” in COSMOS, and all your saturated kicks will show up, no matter what the files are actually named. Need to find a bright reverby drum loop in 120 BPM? Or a saturated synth sample in F#-minor with a cinematic feel? Just choose the appropriate tags, and COSMOS will deliver the samples you’re after, instantly.

You can easily audition your samples from within COSMOS, with just one click. Then just drag-and-drop the sample you want straight into your sampler or DAW.

COSMOS can open as a standalone app – or from within the Waves CR8 Creative Sampler, with which it integrates seamlessly for a super-fast and creative workflow.

As a bonus, COSMOS comes pre-packed with over 2500 one-shots and loops.

With COSMOS, you can finally search your entire collection of samples faster and easier than ever – without ever again needing to dig through multiple messy folders.





CR8 Creative Sampler

Waves Complete v13 15.02.22 WiN MAC screenshot

Create Infinite Instruments. Quicker.

When you’re cooking samples, you want to get creative quickly. The Waves CR8 Creative Sampler takes everything fun and exciting about sampling, and puts it all inside a fast, easy workflow.

With CR8 you can turn any sound into an inspiring playable instrument in seconds – with the easiest access to:

•8 sample layers, allowing you stack and mix samples, or split them across your keys
•5 stretching algorithms – Voice, Beats, Melodic, Harmonic and Classic – each allowing you to control pitch & time independently
•Key & BPM analysis to get you in tune and in sync with your session in seconds
•Easy Loop, Reverse, Freeze options & more, for instant control over your sample playback

In addition, you can shape color and timbre using the built-in filters and ADSR envelopes. You can drag & drop 4 powerful LFO/Sequencer modulators and 4 ADSR envelopes to almost any CR8 control.

You can also assign your keyboard’s aftertouch, velocity, mod-wheel and pitch-wheel to most of CR8’s controls, making your samples playable in a responsive musical way.

You can even browse all your loops and one-shots from within CR8, using the built-in Waves COSMOS AI-powered Sample Finder, which sorts and auto-tags all your samples. You can audition any sound from within the sampler, while the track is playing, in the context of your session. When you do this, CR8 will even choose the appropriate time stretching algorithm for the chosen sample, automatically.

You also get over 800 CR8 sampler presets, and over 2500 free one-shots and loops within COSMOS.

So now you can finally get creative – fast.

HELP! I accidently chose a wrong folder for the Waves AU Reg Utility app. And now everytime it says it cannot find any AU plugins.
Is there a way to choose a new folder again? I already tried re-downloading the file but still it wants to search the wrong folder.

Thanks for your help. :)

Installing fresh on 12.2.1 MAC. NEVER had waves installed on this laptop. No matter what I do, it errors when I click download on the offline installer almost immediately. Cleared Plist/ cache, etc. i9 with flash storage. Seems to work on my other 2019 Mac with a i7 and a SSD. Is there something I'm missing?

There must be a .plist or preference file that you need to delete. I hope no-one here minds that I recommend for a Mac the free app called app cleaner. if you delete Waves central with this free app it will also delete the preference files and delete that path for you.
Make sure it is the appCleaner you get from "freemacsoft dot net" not some other peace of crap paid app that steals your data. otherwise, someone else may know where that path is written and help you delete it by hand. everyone on a Mac should use "appCleaner".

I have not had any issues on my M1 muck mini. I think this is because I cleaned up my waves folders making sure everything was deleted from before, AND the preferences. I have working Cosmos which followed Not Now's post:

"first: install it from waves central (need a registration on waves.com and get this plugin for free from there TO SEE IT IN WAVES CENTAL - it will appear)

second: Run it and sign in in WAVES LOCAL

third: CRACK ALL WAVES...

After that it all works )))))))"


Thank you Hidera and everyone who makes this work.
Peace. Love. Light. and some Heavy Metal from time to time.

Hi Togril ! Can you tell me if you can open the waves mono plugins? all the mono plugins do not work for me ... :( I'm on Big Sur M. For exemple i have this message error "Unable to load Audio Unit "J37 (m)". Contact its publisher for an updated version or additional support.

Have you an idea please ? :(

yes I have mono and stereo.
What DAW are you using?

I just realised I use Cubase and not Logic. I think that the AU plugs have a big issue.

Ok. let's cut to the chase:
I use Cubase 11 on osx 11.6.X. fine,
BUT:
Have any of you got this working in LOGIC?

It's working GREAT FOR ME in Cubase (vst's),
Mac mini M1/ osx 11.6.4

but I am thinking that the AUDIO UNIT plugins are broken.
We need to notify the uploader if this is the case.
Anyone? Got all plugs, not just cosmos working in LOGIC ?

**** To Make New Waves CR8-Sampler works with Cosmos Manager *****
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

**for (Windows 10 & 11 users)

All these TRIALS failed for me
1- Updating from previous Waves version and installing Cosmos after registering for the license,
Either CR8 and Cosmos worked and broke my Waves plugins and vice versa.

2- Repairing and repatching didn't solve either

So, The Solution is
completely remove Waves including Wave central and make a fresh install


Steps:-
- Uninstall Completely all Waves Plugins , Central
- Install Latest Waves Central v13.0.12 (at 22-2-2022)
- First Open (Waves Central) , log in (need a Free account by registering on waves.com)
- Don't look for (COSMOS) in search inside waves central --> Doesn't appear!!
So, Choose Settings --> Offline installer --> install Only (Cosmos Sample Finder)
- Open Cosmos standalone app from desktop shortcut & its default Path is:-
C:\Program Files (x86)\Waves\COSMOS\bin\COSMOS.exe

and log in when asked --> it worked

a Full Sample Pack of 3.77 GB is installed from the downloaded (Waves v13 Complete) Pack to this Path:-
C:\Program Files (x86)\Waves\Data\Instrument Data\Waves Sample Libraries

--->Then, Close (Cosmos) completely from Task Manager & log out of (Wave Central).
---> Block Both by Firewall

- Install the offline installer from the waves folder (from the downloaded Pack)
===> Choose (Not to Re-Install Cosmos again or Re-Install it again)=(Both Worked),
then, Install all other Waves plugin you Like
===> Close (Wave Central)

- Run the (VR-Patch)

- Not important Step unless you tried ,didn't work, then need it ===> Run the (fixMe.cmd)

- Not important Step unless you tried ,didn't work, then need it Specially f u have any Waves Hardware ===> (Reboot Windows) and all works fine.



N.B.
** There's only one problem:-
if you intervenet in any way on the (WavesLocalServer) file, you lose all the advanced features of the new presets browser!
While, I killed (localserver) by running (fixMe.cmd) BUT everything is fine for me AEAY!!

** If Waves Plugins Disappeared from inside Your DAW (Studio One,,, ) after upgrading or Full Removal, Re-Installation
---> Delete the VST3 or VST2 Path for it from inside your DAW , Put the Path again & Re-Scan it
VST3
C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3
VST2
C:\Program Files\Vstplugins


** Restarting the PC & runing the (fixMe.cmd) Weren't vital for Me AEAY
==> Waves worked Perfectly with & Without doing BOTH !!


** Some tried Other way
==> Installed over a Previous Waves version
==> Then,
log in via (Waves Central) by Online Account and clicked on "Repair"
Took some time but eventually it was fixed and both Cosmos & CR8 worked.
==> Then,
log in via (Cosmos) , Open it

==> Block by Firewall (Waves Central) & (Cosmos) ===> Re-Patch with VR-Team

Restart PC ---> Done
I'm here , That's more than enough !!

Thank you AEAY, that will help a lot of people. Including me if I need to use my more powerful PC.
One question what do you mean by Advanced Features in cosmos? I also Killed the Waveslocal Server on Mac, and I have what I believe to be a fully functioning Cosmos.
can you give me an example? of an Advanced feature?
Thanks.

I just added all the plugins and now logic seems to need to rescan my plugin folder each time it loads and it is taking ages for a project to load now too. I did do a clean wipe and install so I am thinking perhaps I shouldn't have added the previous versions of waves? Delete all but the newest version?

Now, Just to be clear:

Waves plugins won't work if on native m1 mode on logic or Ableton Live M1 right?
The AU versions just work in rosetta mode, correct?
  Member 17.01.2014 46

I'm very curious about it as well. When I open Logic on M1 mode waves doesn't work.

I hope there's a solution.

PS. I always get THIS "error" when opening Logic as well. Even using Rosetta Mode

Same here. I followed all the instructional steps, but when I open any waves plugin in Ableton 11 on MacBook Pro M1 with Monterey OSX I get the license error that says I have no licenses installed.

Can anyone help?
