IcedAudioFinder
The audio library and production base station Mac producers relied on from 2003 to 2026. It is still here, and it still works. It is no longer for sale: its successor is AudioCortex 2, and if you bought AudioFinder in 2020 or later, AudioCortex 2 is yours free.

The old AudioFinder support site is still up — manuals, changelogs and answers from its years. For anything today, support@icedaudio.com.
Already own it?
Keep using it. Authorize it with your code as before (AudioFinder ▸ Authorize…). Lost the code? Re-send it to the address you bought with on the purchase page.
Bought in 2020 or later?
Download AudioCortex 2, open its activation window and paste your AudioFinder code. It becomes an AudioCortex 2 licence on the spot — nothing to buy.
Bought before 2020?
Thank you for the years. AudioFinder stays yours; AudioCortex 2 is $99 during the beta, the same intro price as for everyone.

Reviews
“With pitch detection, BPM calculation and MIDI triggering too, AudioFinder is the missing link in your audio-production chain.”
— Macworld UK
“This is a superb program that stands out as an essential purchase for Mac musos.”
— Computer Music Magazine
“We had some fine choices this year, but when the dust settled, the nod went to Iced Audio's AudioFinder, a Mac OS X jack-of-all-trades utility that takes the grind out of managing your audio files. AudioFinder automates and simplifies so many tedious tasks, it's hard to know where to start.”
— Electronic Musician Magazine
“AudioFinder has been my right-hand man (on my right-hand monitor) for every film and television series that I've scored over the last 10 years. It has the speed, the tools, the look, and flow that a professional music app should have. My sounds would be lost in a sea of digital entropy without it.”
