Hi, in the old interface, if there was a sound that wasn't quite what I wanted I could click a 'similar sounds' button and get some of its relatives.

I can't find it in the Beast Whoosh UI. Are my eyes just skipping over it or has it been deprecated?

(In general I like the new UI very much. Just, teething issues and all that.)

Hi,

The option is also available in the new UI, you'll see a "2 rings" icon when hovering sound players and you can click it. If you're in the sound page, you'll also see the icon next to the sound name. Note that a small amount of sounds don't have the option because we could not analyze them as expected (similarity is based on audio analysis). Also new sounds might have not yet been analyzed.

I had the same question when I first switched to the new interface. It seems like the 'similar sounds' button is no longer available. Hopefully, they bring it back in a future update. Loving the new UI overall too!
