Sample Science Gorilla Bass
There is nothing subtle about the new bundle from Sample Science. These beefy Reese bass sounds are perfect for low end heavy genres like house, jungle, and drum & bass. Three voicing modes (mono and polyphonic, legato) expand your sonic palette, and controls over filtering, ADSR, LFOs, and reverb let you fine tune things to your liking.
It comes in a Free version with 15 sounds and Pro version that offers 34. Other than that, all features are available between the two. It comes with the familiar interface Sample Science has become known for. It comes in VST/3, and AU formats with the Pro version costing only $20.
Sonic Zest Marimba Waves
Bring the chill sounds of the Carribean with this new marimba and vibraphone pack. All sounds were played on a Yamaha YM 6000 marimba and Musser Pro M55 vibraphone. Much like other packs from Sonic Zest the instruments are played using the unique octave tremolo technique. The sounds this type of playing produces are ambient and ethereal. The entire sample pack comes in under 1GB and runs on Kontakt 5.8.1 and above. Until November 22nd it is on sale for half the normal price at $20.
