Advanced Search

Click the ‘Cog’ icon on the right of the search bar to access our Advanced Search panel.

You can now perform specific searches within our catalogue (e.g. BPM, Musical Key, Mood, Instrument etc.)

 

Advanced search fields and example queries:

  • Mood (e.g. “Fun”)
  • Genre (e.g. “Pop”)
  • Instrument (e.g. “Harp”)
  • Track Title (e.g. “Must Be The Love”)
  • Album Title (e.g. “Holiday Hip Hop”)
  • Composer (e.g. “Richard Harvey”)
  • Musical Key (e.g. “A minor”)
  • Release Date (e.g. “2020-2022” or “2020”)
  • BPM (e.g. “80-100” or “120”)
  • Lyrics or Lyrics Subject (e.g. “Love” or “Empowering” )

 

Top Tips

  • You can add your search terms one by one (add your term and click the ‘+’ next to it).
  • You can also add all of your search terms into the panel at once and click any ‘+’.
  • You can use advanced search whenever you like during your search journey (e.g. if you start off selecting a genre from the ‘discover’ tab you can then apply advanced search.
  • Remove any search term by clicking the ‘x’ next to it in the search bar.

 

Negative Search

Exclude the keywords you don’t want.

Simply add a hyphen before the keyword (e.g. “-piano”) and it will be excluded from your results.

Negative search can also be used in Advanced Search by adding a hyphen before any search.

Filtering

To access our Filtering bar start a music search.

Now you can filter your search by stems, BPM and duration and use our toggles – all, vocal, instrumental and sound design.

 

Top Tips

  • Filtering works seamlessly with Advanced Search. Update BPM in advanced search, and it automatically updates the filter bar.
  • Use ‘Lightning Project’ and the ‘Vocal/Instrumental’ toggle to quickly build curated playlists.
  • Use ‘Album View’ to group repetitive results.

 

Predictive Search

Start typing any word into the search bar and after three characters, you’ll see our predictive search appear.

Browse results in the dropdown and click on one to continue your music search.

Discover

Click the green ‘Discover’ tab on the left-hand side of your screen to browse our categories (Music For, Genre, Label, Mood, Instrument) and begin a new search.

Flagging

Flag tracks in your projects to see what you’ve already added while you continue searching.

In either the project dashboard view (left) or the left-hand menu (right), click the flag icon to flag all of the tracks in your project.

Flag feature for projects and playlists

Then, as you continue to search the catalogue to add additional tracks, you’ll see all of the tracks already in your project now marked with a small green flag icon in the lower right hand corner.
