SampleScience has launched a 24-hour sale on a virtual instrument featuring 123 arcade sounds and 88 sound effects: 80s Arcade Sounds.
During the 80s, arcade fever was strong and the video game industry was making millions. At that time, many games shared similar sound chips to generate their unique sounds, and it’s Yamaha that provided the audio technology behind most of Sega, Capcom, and Konami’s arcade games.
80s Arcade Sounds give you that particular sound and emulate through sound design the resonance of arcade cabinets as well as the instability of analog circuitry. We didn’t stop there. The typical stereo effects heard in arcade games and the distance of standing in front of the arcade cabinet were also re-created. The result is thicker and richer sounds compared to other plugin emulations.
Regularly priced $40 USD, the plugin is on sale for only $16 USD with code SEGA at the checkout. It comes in VST/VST3 and AU formats for Windows and Mac.
