Sonidata vs YourSound

Sonidata: UCS Field Recorder is built to help you maintain a professional audio archive on the go. Ensure every sound you capture is perfectly tagged, organized, and ready for high-level indexing the moment you get back to the studio. Designed for sound designers, field recordists, and audio professionals who demand precision from their mobile workflow. PROFESSIONAL CAPTURE & ROUTING Turn your device into a professional field recorder. With the newly introduced Audio Device Manager, select discrete input and output routing, apply hardware-aware format settings (48 khz 24 bit internally, and up to 192 kHz / 32-bit float, depending on the connected devices), and control input gain digitally or via your hardware interface. Monitor audio levels with the Record Ready monitor mode. Capture True Stereo or decode M/S microphones on the fly with per-mic persistence. UCS METADATA ON THE GO Say goodbye to renaming files back at the studio. Sonidata implements the industry-standard Universal Category System (UCS v8.2). Assign Category, FX Name, Vendor, Creator, Mic Perspective, Location, and more right from the field. Use the Voice Slate (Speech-to-Text) to dictate metadata hands-free, or create custom FX Name Templates to speed up repetitive tagging. POWERFUL BATCH EDITING & SYNC Manage massive recording sessions with ease. The new Calendar Filter Bar lets you drill down by date, while batch delete and bulk metadata pasting streamline your workflow. When you’re ready, your sessions—including embedded artwork and metadata—seamlessly sync to iCloud Drive, Google Drive, or Dropbox. SEAMLESS DESKTOP INTEGRATION Export comprehensive 29-column CSV reports fully compatible with industry-standard sound library management software. Use the companion desktop app, Sonidata Embed, to batch edit metadata and re-embed it into your WAV files without transcoding.
