Cinesamples has released version 1.1 of its CinePerc percussion sample library for Native Instruments Kontakt.
CinePerc is the definitive percussion sample library for composers of film, tv and videogames. The collection contains over 170 instruments and recorded at the world famous MGM scoring stage at Sony Pictures Studios in Hollywood by master engineer Dennis Sands.
Changes in CinePerc v1.1
Changed Patch List names to be better searchable by “importance”.
Added 6db to all patches to make the full mix blend better with other libraries.
ON MOST libraries, where we had keyboard real estate, rolls were stretched to A# with no release. This now allows you to have an option to have a release trigger (playing “B”) or NO release trigger (playing “A#”).
Misc sample ending edits, roll smoothing and releases, see notes to each library.
The CinePerc libraries are available to purchase for $299 USD each. The CinePerc CORE and PRO bundle is $549 USD, and the CinePerc Full Bundle (4 packs) is $999 USD.
Cinesamples has announced the release of Randy Kerber: Randy’s Celeste, the first in a new series of Artist Series sample libraries.
Randy Kerber is a composer, orchestrator and keyboard player, who has had a prolific career in the world of cinema. This recognizable celeste sound that Randy developed was used in many of the Hollywood films on which Randy was a keyboardist.
Now, bring that unique sound to your own composing template. Whether you prefer the Kontakt format, or the all new UVI Workstation format (with free player), we think you will love this wonderful new Celeste.
Randy’s Celeste is available to purchase for Kontakt 4.2 (full version) and UVI Workstation/MachFive v3 (*iLok required) for $99 USD. Both formats are also available bundled for $119 USD.
Cinesamples has updated its CineBrass orchestral brass sample library to version 1.5.

Cinesamples has announced the release of CineWinds PRO, an orchestral woodwind sample library for Kontakt.
You have asked and we have labored, and we are proud to announce the release of CineWinds PRO, the expansion of the popular CineWinds CORE orchestral woodwind library.
CineWinds PRO expands the orchestral woodwind section with additions of Alto Flute, Bass Flute, English Horn, Eb Clarinet, Bass Clarinet, and Contrabassoon — and we also added a wide array of ethnic and period wind instruments, such as the Penny Whistle and Ulleann Pipes, performed by maestro William Lyons, who performed on the same instruments he used in many films, including Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit. CineWinds PRO was recorded at the SONY Scoring Stage and mixed by master engineer Dennis Sands.
The CineWinds PRO Expansion is now available to purchase for $399 USD. A bundle of CineWinds CORE and PRO is $649 USD. Libraries require full version of Kontakt 4.2.4.
