SOUND ON SOUND
ILIO are running a giveaway that will allow one lucky participant to win a copy of Keyscape from Spectrasonics and a Roland A-88 MkII keyboard controller.
Rating: 4/5 Stars. Waverunner aims to replicate the sound of classic analogue synths from the ’80s and ’90s...
Ilio were showing a new Steel Pans sample library at NAMM 2022.
Seven Days Of Sound Design series covers a range of synthetic sounds, and includes downloadable Omnisphere patches.
Ilio have now followed up their inaugural Fame Series library with Modern Pop, which they describe as “a collection of radio-ready synth patches”.
Software makers and distributors Ilio teamed up with sound designer Reverb Machine to create 'Classic Sounds', based on synth sounds by such well-known artists as Depeche Mode, Kraftwerk, Gary Numan, Joy Division and ABBA.
***** 5/5 stars. Copious use of live performances and real percussion in these loops give them much more groove than you'd associate with a dance market library...
**** 4/5 Stars. This collection of sample loops is dominated by keyboard phrases, and loops aimed at producers of dance, hip-hop, R&B, pop, funk and electronica.
**** Score = 4/5 stars. A combination of melody lines and chordal riffs which evoke the golden age of soul.
