Quota Mini - Dialogue Sampling Utility

It's finally here.

Today, I am incredibly proud to announce the official release of Quota Mini, the new flagship software from RARE DATA designed to change the way producers, video editors, and content creators work with dialogue.

If you've ever spent hours scrubbing through long-form interviews, movies, or podcasts just to hunt down that one perfect vocal snippet, you know how quickly it kills your creative flow. Traditional samplers are built for musicality and transients; they aren't built for conversation.

I built Quota Mini because I needed a solution to that problem. I wanted a tool that eliminated the friction and let me grab quotes instantly.

The Workflow Revolution

Quota Mini approaches sampling differently. Instead of forcing you to listen and hunt, it utilizes powerful, offline AI Whisper models to transcribe your media.

The workflow is simple: Highlight Text → Export Clips.

You load an audio or video file, the software transcribes it, and you simply highlight the words you want. Assign them to a pad, fine-tune the start and end points if needed, and drag the clip straight into your DAW, video editor, or desktop.

To truly see how fast this changes the game, check out the in-depth walkthrough video below. I take you through the entire process, from importing a video to exporting finished clips using features like Q-Chop and MIDI mapping.

Key Features at a Glance

Text-Based Sampling: Highlight transcribed dialogue to create instant chops.

Offline Privacy: Utilizes OpenAI's Whisper models running locally on your machine—no data is sent to the cloud, and there are no usage caps or subscription fees.

Video & Audio Support: Import video files and drag them out as MP4s or WAVs.

Smart File Naming: Exported clips are automatically named based on the spoken text, making organizing your sample library effortless.

MIDI Integration: Map parameters to your favorite controller for a tactile experience.
