Univers Sons / Ultimate Sound Bank has released Electric Toy Museum, a sound library featuring 97 vintage musical toys.
This is certainly the most insane sound library in the market. 97 vintage musical toys were carefully sampled in the very best conditions, 24 bits / 96khz quality, most of them recorded with the best microphones and preamps.
With more than 1000 presets and 14 000 samples, you will feel like having all these toys right under your fingertips. Every aspect of each machine has been captured: multi-sampled instrument with release samples for every note, rhythms converted into sliced loops, GM drumkits created, FX and speech voices carefully organized…
Electric Toy Museum features
