This paper presents access engine to digital audio and related content developed under IST FP6 project EASAIER. The main driving force for the project was the lack of qualitative solutions for access to digital sound archives. An innovative remote access system which extends beyond standard content management and retrieval systems, addresses a range of issues identified, such as inconsistent formats of archived materials with related media often in separate collections and related metadata
