Dance Midi Samples has released DMS Dimension, a virtual instrument for Windows PC which gives you instant access to our professional quality 1.2 GB ROM library full of soaring trance leads synths, fat trance basses, insane trance FX, bright synth pianos and lush trance pads.

Our aim is to give you a comprehensive toolkit of tones which can slot into any trance or progressive tune. That’s why we’ve stuck to clean, powerful multi-layered sounds for every single one of the 128 presets. We’d be more than happy to use any of these sounds in a track ourselves: there’s no filler whatsoever. Check out the demos above if you don’t believe us: every single sound comes from Dimension (apart from the drums, of course!).

Dimension has a simple, fast architecture: amplitude and filter envelopes, a chunky lowpass filter, a delay unit and a reverb unit. Each patch uses two multisamples which are layered together: you can adjust the balance of these if you want. That’s it: there’s no faff; just instant, usable sounds which can be tweaked so they fit perfectly with the rest of your mix.

All of the individual tones used by Dimension are stored in the popular SF2 (SoundFont) format, which can be used with most VST sampler plug-ins. If you love the sounds, but want to do your own sound design using your own software, feel free to use the samples!

DMS Dimension features

• Presets: 49 Trance Pads, 41 Trance Leads, 10 Hoover-style Leads, 22 Trance Basses, 4 Pianos, 2 FX Banks.
• 1.2GB sample library comprised of 109 SF2′s.
• Amplitude ADSR.
• Filter ADSR.
• Lowpass Filter.
• Auto-quantized delay unit with Normal, Dotted and Triplet modes.
• Reverb unit.
• Tone 1 and Tone 2 level controls.

DMS Dimension is available as a VST instrument plug-in for Windows PC for £49.99 GBP.

Wusik has released version 5.8.6 of Wusikstation, a hybrid vector & wavesequencer sampler/rompler instrument for Windows PC.

This updater now features 3 skins: New White, Limeflavour and Old Blue. It will show a preview of all 3 skins and ask which one should be the Default skin. (it installs all 3 skin files)

Changes in Wusikstation v5.8.6

• Added: new Mod-Matrix Sources: Alternate First, Mono and Poly. The value alternates from Min to Max in a Ping-Pong way.
• Added: click once in any Pitch-Bend parameter, a new Global Off option can be found. This will turn all layers Bend to off and also any patch you load after that. This is saved in the wINI file, so any new instance loaded after that is also affected.
• Changed: how the Groove Sequencer page selector works with the new skin type 3. (White-Skin) Now it will just scroll the sequences, instead of changing the pages.
• Changed: now you can use the Stereo Pan Polyphonic Destination in the Mod-Matrix, even for Mono Sounds. It will force it to Stereo-Mode.
• Changed: tweaking the Wavesequencer slot, goes back to page 1, instead of page 2.
• Changed: In the Groove Sequencer, the Current Step Beat and Current Step Edit images are now draw on Top of the Step image.
• Changed: in the FX version, the FX Name was not centered like the FX Preset.
• Changed: Groove Sequencer Remote-Edit Ctrl+Up/Down now changes the Sequence-Lane Page/Offset.
• Fixed: when using multiple filters for the same layer, changing frequency would tweak resonance too.
• Fixed: white-skin file search color problem and other skin typos. Also fixed a problem during install that would merge the old Default skin file with the new one.
• Fixed: groove sequencer remote pattern wrong tool-tip information.
• Fixed: Wavesequencer Sample Start Lane wouldn’t work with Speed=Off for any other step when modulating the sequence start with the modulation matrix.
• Fixed: when Groove Sequencer is playing, changing SEQ page doesn’t update seq lanes.
• Fixed: Groove Sequencer Remote-Edit Ctrl+Up/Down wouldn’t work correctly.
• Fixed: Groove Sequencer – duplicating a pattern with Midi CC information (some other random problems related to Midi CC lanes).
• Fixed: automated-load crash problem when starting from layer O1 in some situations.
• Fixed: problems with Insert effects not loading presets or/and redrawing the screen.
• Fixed: clicks when streaming from disk in certain situations.
