Sample Libraries

Rather than faithfully capturing an acoustic instrument, The Crow Hill Company's latest release uses sampling to invent a completely new one. 

Morphology Evolved is the next-generation version of the company’s Morphology instrument, and complements its original sound set with a new synthesis architecture, modern effects processing and an expressive new morphing system.

The latest library to join Best Service’s ever-growing range includes four solo wind instruments that capture the spirit of traditional music from Armenia, Persia, Turkey and the Middle East. 

Based on the technology behind the company’s Virtual Drummer series, Groovemate Latigo features a phrase-based engine that allows users to trigger authentic-sounding percussion performances while maintaining control over their timing, feel and arrangement.

The latest addition Sonora Cinematic's range of Soundbox instruments throws some chamber strings into the mix, and aims to tackle the issue of long, sustained notes sounding too clean or static. 

Captured at the main live room at the composer’s Studio Richter Mahr facility, the collection includes four separate instruments that focus on close-miked, ‘tiny’ sounds.

EastWest have announced the upcoming release of a new virtual drum instrument that combines a wealth of drum samples with exclusive groove programming by legendary hitmaker Jimmy Jam.

Designed specifically for composers working on fantasy TV, film and game scores, Sonuscore's latest library brings together a collection of vocal phrases sung in an improvised fantasy language. 

The latest release from BOOM Library comes packed with production-ready exterior ambiences that capture the distinct acoustic character of autumn. 

Synchron Woodwinds, Synchron Strings Pro and Synchron Duality Strings (Colors) have just gained some new capabilities, and the updates come alongside a new limited-time promotion across VSL's woodwind libraries. 

The latest release from Best Service brings together a selection of string, wind and percussion instruments that promise to take users “into the sound worlds of past civilizations”.

Sound Magic have announced the launch of a comprehensive virtual drum instrument that’s been designed to cater to everything from music production to film scoring and game audio. 

Wiltone Productions have announced the release of Music Row Piano, a deeply sampled Yamaha C7 piano library that’s been created for Native Instruments’ Kontakt platform.

The Very Loud Indeed Co.’s latest Kontakt library has just arrived, delivering a third instalment in their Outland series and introducing 100 new character-filled patches. 

Said to present a collection of sounds that are rarely encountered outside of the world’s most renowned studios, concert halls and private collections, Pianology has been designed to kit composers, producers and performers out with a versatile set of instruments that deliver a realistic, expressive playing experience. 

In contrast to Pure Nylon, which was designed with warmth and intimacy in mind, Pure Steel is said to sound “bright, crispy and resonant”, capturing the unmistakable sound of a steel-string acoustic guitar. 

VSL’s Duality Strings series comprises six releases, and now, VSL are offering the whole set at a reduced cost in the form of the Duality Strings Bundle.
