Wave Alchemy has recently released another drum sample library, Drum Tools 01.

Drum Tools 01 by Wave Alchemy offers over 1950 exquisitely produced electronic drum samples. All sounds in the collection have been built from the ground up using a jawdropping array of analogue circuitry and exclusive highend outboard gear.

Great care has been taken to capture the tone / vibe and warmth of the equipment used and all sample editing and file naming has been done by hand for maximum precision.

The drum samples in Drum Tools 01 have been created by the creative layering and processing of drum machines, exotic synthesizers / modulars, field recordings and the recording of live drum and percussive instruments.

Ah… just what I need: More creatively layered and processed drum machine, exotic sound sources and field recordings.

Of course I don’t really need another drum sample library… ToneBuilder’s Driven Machine Drums, various Goldbaby Productions titles, and Wave Alchemy’s own Drum Machines 01 already provide me with thousands of high quality samples.

So why Drum Tools 01? The beauty of sample libraries like the ones I just mentioned is that they feature sampled material from a unique combination of analog sound sources processed with high end outboard gear, so Drum Tools still sounds “different” from everything else I already have.

Kid Nepro has released Korg M3 Volume #5 – Vintage Synths, a new collection of 32 sounds for the Korg M3 Workstations.

An amazing assortment of fully KARMA-fied Programs & Combis perfect for Producers and Keyboard Players looking for some great classic synth sounds to add to their M3.

Kid Nepro’s Vintage Synth collection for the Korg M3 is the closest thing that you can get to a real analog synthesizer. Programmer Steve Proto has now tapped into his collection of classic synthesizers and has sampled three of the best analog synthesizers ever made – The Moog Mini Moog, Roland Super Jupiter AKA: MKS80 and the Sequential Circuits Prophet VS. Also included in the collection are six new multi samples from Korg’s MOSS virtual analog expansion board that is so popular with owners of the Korg Triton and Karma workstations.

Korg M3 Volume #5 – Vintage Synths features

• Sampled vintage synthesizers: Moog Mini Moog, Roland MKS80, Sequential Circuits Prophet VS.
• 32 new programs, 16 new combis, 32 new classic synth multi samples (no memory expansion needed).
• Additional M3’s effects, real time controls and KARMA functions to create a mix of super analog synths on steroids.
• Many of the wave sequencing GE’s found in Korgs Wavestation when triggering KARMA are included.
• KARMA’s Arpeggio GE’s used to give you those cool arpeggio rhythms found in many vintage synths from the 70’s and 80’s.

Korg M3 Volume #5 – Vintage Synths is available to purchase for $30 USD.

Ian Boddy has released Beatalogue, the 4^th sample library in the waveforms series.

This follow up to ‘Drumalogue’ takes a selection of electronic drum patterns and loops which were then fed through Boddy´s massive modular synth system. These were then filtered, mangled and generally messed up using a huge number of modules all in the analogue domain.

All the loops have between 3 and 5 variations and sonically range from sweet filtering all the way through to completely crunched and twisted mayhem. The quality of the distortion and overdrive achieved using these techniques gives the loops a gorgeous organic feel which is further heightened by the sound of the modular itself with it´s fuzzy warmness and tripping envelopes.

The sounds are also provided in Rex2 and Apple Loops format enabling them to be used at various tempos and dissected by the end user for their own purposes.

Beatalogue features

• 300 mono samples at 44.1Khz, 24 bit in WAV format.
• All samples also provided in Rex2 & Apple Loops format.
• Drum Loops filtered, mangled & messed up via the following analogue synthesisers:
  • Roland System 100-M
  • Analogue Systems
  • Doepfer A-100 modular system
  • Analogue Solutions
  • Livewire AFG, Vulcan & Dalek Modulators
  • Metasonix TM-2 Tube BP filter & R-53 Tube Waveshaper/Ring Mod
  • Flight of Harmony Plague Bearer
  • The Harvestman Malgorithm
  • WMD Geiger Counter
  • Make Noise QMMG
  • Minimoog
  • VCS3

Beatalogue is available to purchase as a digital download for £24.99 GBP / 29.99 EUR / $39.99 USD.

Xhun Audio has released version 1.1 of LittleOne, a faithful software emulation of a new classic: the Moog Little Phatty hardware analog synthesizer.

Changes in LittleOne v1.1

• Envelope Generators: the 4-stage ADSR EGs have a faster response (this sensibly adds more “Punch” to the sound).
• Improved signal path: now Velocity modulates the Filter Cutoff (editing accessible from the O.S. display, like the original Little Phatty).
• Sequencer and TranceGate Host syncing: now both have the right timing.
• Sequencer has a “note LED display” for each knob, making easier finding the right tuning.
• Improved voice allocation.
• MIDI Learn implementation, for all the controls.
• Improved Cubase 5, Live, REAPER compatibility, the “crashing bug” has been fixed (see LittleOne new documentation).
• Improved Multicore compatibility.
• The 128-patch factory bank has been improved and new banks available, including the original Little Phatty one.

LittleOne is available to purchase as a VST instrument plug-in for Windows PC, priced at 45 EUR.

Xhun Audio has released LittleOne, a faithful software emulation of a new classic: the Moog Little Phatty hardware analog synthesizer.

To produce a warm analog sound, LittleOne emulates every single component of the original Moog synth (oscillators, filter, envelopes, LFO, etc.) preserving the original frequency responses and frequency ranges.

In addition to the Little Phatty synthesizer emulation, LittleOne encloses a full rack with a 16-step MIDI sequencer, a 16-step trancegate effect and two master effects slots, making LittleOne a versatile and complete audio synthesis setup.

LittleOne features

• The Moog Little Phatty Physical Modeling emulation
• An all-in-one complete synthesis setup!
• Two aliasing-free analog modeled oscillators with continuous selection mode ( like the original ) between Triangle, Saw, Square, Pulse
• A 4-Pole Low Pass filter modeled on the classic Moog Ladder, featuring the original frequency responses and overload control
• Two 4-Stage ( ADSR ) envelope generators
• Modulation LFO with the original waveforms and frequency ranges ( 0.2~500 Hz )
• Monophonic/polyphonic mode , pitch bend ranges and more – all accessible from LittleOne LED display
• 128 ready-to-use presets from classic analog to contemporary cutting-edge dance to psychoacoustic sounds and SFX
• XSQ16M, a build-in 16-step MIDI sequencer
• GATED!, a build-in 16-step trancegate effect
• Two master effects slots with the possibility to choose between delay, reverb, tube distortion, flanger, chorus
