Bradley Hall's Guitar School SIMPLE Solos Vs. COMPLEX Solos (Proof That Both Can Be Amazing) TUTORiAL WAV PDF GP-FANTASTiC screenshot
FANTASTiC | 06 March 2025 | 1.83 GB
Ah yes, the age-old argument of "technique" vs. "feel"! I've always found such discussions to be entirely redundant and pointless as there's no reason why these 2 things have to be mutually exclusive. All of the best guitarists throughout history have been those who perfectly manage to blend emotion and technique into a single delectable cocktail!

This is the complete guide to helping you get perfect, professional-sounding tracks, no matter what music you make, and is brought to you by the experts at Computer Music magazine. It used to be the case that you could only really get a professional-sounding mix after years of experience working in a ‘proper’ recording studio with a (often huge) hardware mixing desk.

Spellbinding vocal drones and phrases captured in an old church
Toward the end of the summer, my partner (the star of this library) and I had a couple of hours to ourselves in a 173yr old church. We spent that time capturing these samples.
We took full advantage of the space despite only having one stereo mic, so what you hear in this library is what would be a “far” or “ambient” mic signal.

Place it lets you emulate the sound of a chosen speaker and place it in one of 40 different environments - all based on expertly recorded convolution impulse responses in true stereo. As a sound effects platform obsessed with high-quality audio, the bar was high when we developed Place it. A year of research and development was put into it, and we think it rivals the best. The Place it plugin in Soundly Voice Designer was so popular that we received countless requests for a standalone plugin for all DAWS and editing suites - and we listened!

05/04/2024 | VST3 AU STANDALONE WiN MAC | 13 MB
A unique take on the classic acid bassline sound.

The Mi-03 is an instrument that revitalizes the classic 303 sound for today's music producers. At it's core, the Mi-03 is a simple subtractive monophonic synthesiser. A long list of features might sound good on paper, but too many options can stifle creativity. The Mi-03 doesn't try to do everything. Important design decisions have been made, but with just enough creative control to craft your own unique sound.

My dear friend Olymoon has passed away on 2024.04.02, after desperately fighting cancer for one year.
despite enormous suffering, he has been with us and helping until his last days.

He's been our moderator for the last 10 years, at some point practically replacing me, while i was going through the hardest period in my life.

Drum Depot Motherdrummer (Moog DFAM) Sample Pack WAV [FREE] screenshot
04/04/2024 | WAV | 1 GB
The Motherdrummer - 92 minutes of Moog DFAM stems and patterning

Initially I wanted to create a new drum pack with my Moog DFAM. But honestly, this wasn’t really possible, because the DFAM is just not a regular groovebox or drumsynth. It’s more like a percussive-synth-thingie with huge focus on permanently changing and evolving sounds thanks to its sequencer. So I sampled 40 full sequence stems plus 22 variations from the DFAM, all evolving over several minutes, gave them some love through my modular Tube Distortion Filter and finally some software treatment for finalising. The result features 92 minutes of instant Techno & Electro patterns.

Vicious Antelope Hybrid Symphonic 2 (OMNiSPHERE 2 BANK) [Free For Limited Time] screenshot
04/04/2024 | OMNiSPHERE 2 BANK | 557 KB
Hybrid Symphonic 2 is an Omnisphere 2 bank consisting of 100 evolving and dynamic long synths.

At the heart of the patches there are two categories of Soundsources, acoustic strings and mellotron sounds. Combining those two categories had some very interest results. As our first release of Hybrid Symphonic series the point of the soundbank is the creation of hybrid sounds that have orchestral instruments on the one side and something else on the other side.
