Studio 1 at the new EASTWEST STUDIOS (formally United-Western) is one of the best sounding percussion recording studios anywhere. It is very similar to the top Hollywood sound-stages, but with a more refined sound. The studio has one of the best mic collections in the world, and rare vintage recording equipment that is sonically superior to any I have used previously. Digital transfers were done through very expensive Meitner converters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI got access to some fantastic percussion collections and purchased everything I could. I even contacted Remo and had them build me the largest floor tom ever built (42\"x42\" +legs)! As a teenager, I remember seeing Mickey Hart playing some gigantic Remo rack toms with the Grateful Dead. That sound always stuck with me. SD1 had a cool patch called \"Thunder Ensemble\". This was six musicians hitting large drums in unison in a warehouse. SD2 has the \"Earthquake Ensemble\", which is eleven musicians hitting huge, large and sometimes smaller drums in unison in EASTWEST studio 1.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are many gems in SD2 and lots of subtle beFormat-AUtiful sounds as well. I collected many small Tibetan bells over the years and you'll find these together in one beFormat-AUtiful patch. Troels Follman contributed his hang-drum samples which are very unique. Other unique instruments are the Whale Drum, Giant Tongue Drum and Octaplus 9 action toms. The sound design percussion is pretty special too, as is the Glitched Electronic Percussion. There is plenty of very detailed conventional percussion included also.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGenerally there is a lot of velocity switching going on and some round robin (alternate) sample switching. The sounds are usually organized with the middle of the drum hits on the lowest keys, and as you move up the keys, the hits move to the outside of the drum. Use CC11 volume and CC12 pan inside your sequencer, becFormat-AUse they work per midi channel, unlike CC7 and CC10 which control the entire instance of PLAY's volume and pan. The mod-wheel controls a fantastic filter which can give the sounds more life and sound design options.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MIDI PERFORMANCES included in\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eQUANTUM LEAP SD2 \u003c\/b\u003eare in type 0 midi file format. This means that 16 tracks of midi data are compressed into a single midi file data stream. You can playback the data as is, or expand it onto 16 tracks using the expand\/unpack function in your sequencer. Set up a template that allocates 16 tracks to PLAY, midi channel 1-16. Once expanded, you have access to every parameter of the sequence, as if you had created it yourself. Tempo, muting instruments, adding instruments and parts, changing the tone using velocity and controllers, quantizing etc... are all possible. If you are not experienced with creating MIDI percussion performances, they might be educational too. The .ewi multi files that contain the 16 sound patches for each midi performance are also useful as templates to create your own MIDI performances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou may want to add some reverb on top of the natural sound-stage ambience, as is typically done in film-scores. PLAY's convolution reverb is perfect for this. The delay is useful also. Use the stereo width control to widen the sound-stage, and channel sourcing to get a mono signal for exact placement in the stereo field. You'll find that the left and right channels often sound quite different, which is useful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eQUANTUM LEAP SD2\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis a new and improved concept that is destined to become the new standard for years to come.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EastWest","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":8006526828604,"sku":"EW-186BD","price":59.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0016\/5173\/6636\/products\/Stormdrum2_art_2b08c510-90df-4708-a6c7-2fbd7fe4661d.png?v=1552091707"},{"product_id":"east-west-prodrummer","title":"EastWest ProDrummer Vol 1","description":"\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEastWest's ProDrummer not only includes professional drum sounds; the producers, who record and mix the biggest artists in the music business, have included pre-mixed drum kits for use in your compositions using the 'state of the art' tools included in the ProDrummer software.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"At EastWest, we're all about the 'sound'; that's the only part that ends up in your track, so, in addition to the producer pre-mixed drum kits, we have included our favorite effects processors including Solid State Logic EQ and Dynamics, Transient Shaper, and the legendary SSL Stereo Bus Compressor; Ohmicide multiband distortion, compression, EQ and filter, which pretty much lets you create 'anything', and is perfect for EDM or media composers; plus EastWest's new Amp Simulator with 80 Amp Presets, and Expanded Convolution Reverb with 726 Additional Reverb Presets.

The best gear from Fairchild, Manley, Meitner, Neumann, Neve, Sennheiser, Sony, Telefunken, and TG were used in each recording. ATC Monitors were posted in each space to emulate the real-world sound projection properties of various instruments. For orchestral halls, an impulse was taken in the exact position an instrument would be on stage. Therefore, an impulse for a French horn was created by firing the sweep tones from the middle to left rear of the stage, backward and slightly towards the floor. 1st violin section impulses were taken by firing a series of speakers at an angle toward the ceiling, just like a real section, with a fifth speaker firing towards the floor to emulate the body of the violins. Spaces II includes a very hi-resolution, True Stereo engine that focuses on delivering the very best sound at a very low CPU load. Most impulses are in 8 channel format, so surround mixes can be created.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1,020 reverbs recorded in venues from across the world\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduced by Doug Rogers and Nick Phoenix\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighest resolution, most useful reverbs available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e24-bit True Stereo, with True Surround capability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new GUI with visuals representing each space\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new Decay Time Control Feature\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNew Next \/ Previous Buttons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eATC, Neumann, Telefunken, Neve, Meitner Signal Path\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFilm Score, Rock, Pop, Jazz, Classical, Esoteric and Dreamy Reverbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow CPU usage, with cleanest signal path possible\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSystem Requirements\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMacOS 10.13 High Sierra and above\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWindows 10 (64-bit only)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2.7 GHz 4-core CPU or better (8-core recommended)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16GB RAM or more (32GB or more recommended)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.7GB free storage space (SSD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNVMe SSD recommended\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree iLok account and iLok License Manager\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eiLok Machine and iLok dongle licensing methods are supported\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlugin Formats\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAAX Native, AU, VST2, VST3\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"EastWest","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":8853306540092,"sku":"EW-311D","price":89.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0016\/5173\/6636\/products\/Spaces_II.png?v=1547253256"},{"product_id":"east-west-voices-of-soul","title":"EastWest Voices of Soul","description":"\u003ciframe width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/r7R0XVotjSE\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVoices of Soul is a powerhouse vocal product of soulful perfection that will be your new secret weapon, it's perfect for any music requiring solo vocals or backing vocal harmonies using chords.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEastWest recorded Voices of Soul with C.C.

long-awaited sequel to Hollywood Strings has finally arrived.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut this time, we made a hard pivot: Instead of going bigger, we recorded a tight 21-piece chamber strings ensemble in EastWest Studio 2 for our most nuanced string library yet - smaller room, same production team, no less cinematic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou'll find all the essential articulations, including legato, detache, pizzicato, staccato, spiccato, marcato, col legno, and even rare textural styles like flautando, each with up to four dynamics, ensuring an unparalleled level of expressiveness and realism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the delicate intimacy of pianissimo to the commanding authority of fortissimo, and everything in between, articulations are captured with exacting detail by an extensive array of microphones, giving you unprecedented control over the performance and sound of the strings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEmotional, Intimate,

possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can independently control 3 separate close mic positions (including mics attached directly to the instruments), plus main, mid-field, and surround mics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere's no limit to the depth you can create - Hollywood Strings 2 is even Atmos-ready, so you can create Atmos mixes in DAWs that support Atmos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEpic arrangements are great, but there's more to strings than scale alone... and while its predecessor is indeed epic, Hollywood Strings 2 goes even further,

string library of all time... and now, all 3 returned to do it again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTheir goal was simple: Capture the same cinematic quality as the original, but with more granular control than any string library to date.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is clear, clean, and dry, with a character that effortlessly lends itself to any genre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDoug Rogers and Nick Phoenix have produced multiple award-winning sample libraries and virtual instruments together for over three decades - more than any other

long-awaited sequel to Hollywood Strings has finally arrived.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut this time, we made a hard pivot: Instead of going bigger, we recorded a tight 21-piece chamber strings ensemble in EastWest Studio 2 for our most nuanced string library yet - smaller room, same production team, no less cinematic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou'll find all the essential articulations, including legato, detache, pizzicato, staccato, spiccato, marcato, col legno, and even rare textural styles like flautando, each with up to four dynamics, ensuring an unparalleled level of expressiveness and realism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom the delicate intimacy of pianissimo to the commanding authority of fortissimo, and everything in between, articulations are captured with exacting detail by an extensive array of microphones, giving you unprecedented control over the performance and sound of the strings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEmotional, Intimate, Raw\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe close-mic'd every instrument closer than we ever have before, capturing the grit, depth, and air of every note in the finest detail possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can independently control 3 separate close mic positions (including mics attached directly to the instruments), plus main, mid-field, and surround mics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere's no limit to the depth you can create - Hollywood Strings 2 is even Atmos-ready, so you can create Atmos mixes in DAWs that support Atmos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEpic arrangements are great, but there's more to strings than scale alone... and while its predecessor is indeed epic, Hollywood Strings 2 goes even further,
