that works quite good for my small sample collection. I also have associated .wav files with mhwaveedit, which is really nice for fast operations (trimming, normalizing, fading). BTW to do that in mc you should edit the extension file (Command->Edit extension file)

But samplecat looks definitely neater!

Yeah, SampleCat does look like what I'm looking for. I did think about Midnight Commander, but what I didn't like about that was that it doesn't actually understand the content itself. I'd like something truly like GQview, but for audio -- it knows what it's browsing, and it gives you options to internally audition and manage on disk. Samplecat seems to do that, including even the ability to keep track of stuff on removable media that's not mounted.

What launched all of this is my growing archive of drum machine samples from various vintage beatboxes. It's getting to the point where even I don't know what I've got anymore, and I'm pretty sure a lot of it's useless and could be deleted.
