Abstract

Collections of sound and music of increasing size and diversity are used both by general personal computer users and multimedia designers. Browsing audio collections poses several challenges to the design of effective user interfaces. We present the Sonic Browser, an application for browsing sound collections on personal computers. We describe how a novel user interface with multiple views can be applied to the browsing of audio collections. Finally, we conclude with current trends of our approach for further improvement of the system.
