Orange Tree Samples Evolution Vintage Violin Bass v1.2.5 KONTAKT screenshot
KONTAKT - 6,3 GB
Who knew that a short scale, violin-shaped electric bass would become the foundational bass tone for a majority of the Beatles’ catalog? With its snappy attack and mellow sustain, this little bass delivers all the low frequency content you need for the backbone of your music as well as the rich-sounding sustain necessary for melodic, memorable bass lines. Speaking of melodic, there’s also a slight “bloom” to its sustain, probably due to its hollow construction rather than having a solid body like most electric basses. Even though it’s unquestionably an electric bass, this characteristic lends a subtle acoustic-like quality to the shape of the notes.

APU Software APU Dynamics Optimizer v3.3.1 Win macOS screenshot
P2P | 4 February 2025 | 18 MB
The APU Dynamics Optimizer is a dynamics optimization tool designed to support modern loudness types (LUFS, True Peak). Underneath the hood, the optimizer uses the same compression engine as the APU Loudness Compressor, but benefits from the full audio waveform instead of real-time measurements. This allows the gain envelope to be meticulously optimized across the entire waveform.

APU Software APU Loudness Compressor v3.3.1 Win macOS screenshot
P2P | 4 February 2025 | 57 MB
The APU Loudness Compressor is a compressor/expander designed to support modern loudness types (LUFS, True Peak). This means the compression curve is a function of LUFS measurements instead of RMS or Peak. Since LUFS is a more accurate measure of loudness, the result is very transparent compression, making it particularly well suited for mastering and post-production workflows.

APU Software APU Loudness Limiter v3.3.1 Win macOS screenshot
P2P | 4 February 2025 | 57 MB
The APU Loudness Limiter is a real-time limiter designed to support multiple loudness types simultaneously. The limiter can be configured to use LUFS, True Peak, RMS, and/or Peak loudness types. This allows you to target multiple requirements simultaneously, such as a specific LUFS target and a specific True Peak target. Internally, the ballistics of the limiter are adjusted to accommodate the different loudness type limiter settings.

Orange Tree Samples Evolution Jumbo 12 v1.2.5 KONTAKT screenshot
KONTAKT - 5,22 GB
We are pleased to present Evolution Jumbo 12, the long awaited 12-string acoustic addition to our Evolution guitar series, recorded from a Taylor 355. This guitar sports a silky high end, yet an ample amount of body in the lows and mids--undoubtedly the result of it being a larger sized guitar. Mixed prominently, Evolution Jumbo 12 can cut through the mix with its crisp, bright tone. Played at a feathery-soft dynamic, it adds an exquisite shimmer to your arrangement.

Blanketfort Audio Melloharp v1.0.0 VSTi AUi WiN macOS [FREE] screenshot
FREE | VSTi+AUi | 231MB
Melloharp is the first VSTi/AUi instrument plugin from Blanketfort Audio.

It’s a development on one of the very first Kontakt instruments I made public around 2016. Blending a nylon string acoustic guitar with a broken, rusted autoharp, that instrument was based around single samples stretched across the whole keyboard and this however, is very different.
