A collection of retro/synthwave sounds inspired by modern sci-fi classics.
The story
Inspired by soundtracks of modern sci-fi classics, this collection of synths evokes the nostalgic feel of 80’s sci-fi movies with a modern cinematic sound.
I had been wanting to make my own instruments for some time, but I can’t afford a Kontakt licence so when I found Decent Sampler was a thing. I began learning how to make presets for it, and this is the result. A collection of 15 Synthwave/Retrowave presets with a cinematic touch.
I designed the sounds in Vital and Surge XT and layer them, then process them through different effects.
Each preset has control for Reverb, Delay, Chorus (Which honestly for me sounds more like tape detuning) and Cutoff.

MT Power Drum Kit is a free drum sampler offering the powerful, high-quality sounds of an acoustic, realistic drum kit. Samples have been specially recorded and processed to make them ideally suited for use in pop, rock and metal productions.
The MT Power Drum Kit Sampler differs from other, expensive drum samplers in that we have already pre-processed the sounds with compressors and EQs to make them a perfect fit for any mix. This is precisely where many drum sample programs fail. Some of the expensive plugins available on the market deliver a highly natural and dynamic drum kit sound as a solo instrument, but many fail as soon as they are supposed to be used for a complete mix in a powerful pop or rock production.
Either the kick drum suddenly sounds much too slack or fuzzy in the mix, or the snare drum, which initially sounds natural and dynamic in solo mode, suddenly gets lost in the background in the overall mix, drowned out by the guitars and other instruments. But this is exactly where the MT Power Drum Kit is strongest. Its kick and snare drums come through clearly in any mixing situation – and still sound natural and not overly compressed.
The compressors built into the channels give you even more control over the level of compression.
You can choose from thousands of assorted rhythms in the comprehensive Groove Library and compose your own drum accompaniment. In particular, the innovative functions for creating fills generate very smooth and realistic drum tracks (see video).
Because we used high-quality cymbals and microphones for the recordings, the crash, ride and hi-hat cymbals sound especially refined and pleasant at various velocities.
As early as during microphoning of the set and recording of individual samples, we took great care to replicate realistic circumstances. Although doing so is almost impossible, we broke with tradition in sample recording, which calls for capturing every sound individually; Instead, our studio drummer played entire grooves. Then, we cut most of the necessary sounds out of the grooves, in various velocities, and processed them to deliver samples as realistic as possible. This is especially clear with our hi-hat samples, for instance. On the right-hand side, you can listen to demo tracks to hear the impressive results.
System Requirements:
PC: Windows 11 / 10 / 8 / 7 / Vista / XP
Mac: OS X 10.5 or higher, Intel or ARM (M1/M2/M3) cpu

My younger brother strikes again. I mentioned in the story of my previous submission, the LaPaz Guitar, how my younger brother wanted to learn guitar. What I didn’t mention in that story, is that the guitar would have been the umpteenth instrument he would have tried his hand at at that point. He’s played recorder, violin, xylophone, and a few others I can’t even remember. However, none of the instruments he’s tried his hands at have captivated him as long as his current instrument, the tenor saxophone. Where the other instruments held his attention for a year at most, he’s been playing saxophone for well over four years now, and even plays in the local intermediate orchestra. Having said all that, I never even thought about sampling him playing the sax.
Then, a few months ago, I had to do a project for school; me and a few classmates had to write and orchestrate a piece of balkan brass music. This composition had to include obvious distinct sections, one recorded instrument, one synthesised instrument, and one sampled instrument. Me and my team got to brainstorming who would do what, what we would record and sample, and what we would synthesise. The last part was the easiest, as we luckily had someone on board who was quite good at sound design, who also offered to synthesise a trumpet. The tricky part was figuring what to sample and what to record, as we didn’t know anyone who played brass. However, I then realised, I did know someone who played a brass woodwind: my younger brother! So me and my brother booked a few hours in one of the school’s recording studios, along with a small assortment of microphones, and got to work.
This is also my second experiment with multi-microphone recording setups, and my first voyage into mic controls. Admittedly, I used a somewhat unorthodox recording setup for this. One cardioid microphone (the Close Mic) about half a meter in front of the sax, a figure eight microphone (the Mid-Room Mic) about two meters from the sax with the sensitive side aimed towards the sax, and an omnidirectional microphone (the Far-Room Mic) behind the sax in a corner of the room. Though I don’t have a lot of experience in recording, I’ve found that I quite enjoy having a more roomy sound, hence this setup, as it both nicely captures the sax, and the room around it.
We recorded two octaves, with three velocity layers per note, and three round robins per velocity layer. We also recorded the various pads and keys of the sax, which I mapped onto the lower keys of the keyboard, free for you to add in as you please. I also have these sounds their own volume knob.
The one crux of this library, I think, is the volume disparity between velocity layers. I tried to fix that as best I could, but didn’t go too far with it for fear of disturbing the noise floor too much. Still, I don’t think it’s too big an issue.
In the end, I’m really happy with how this project turned out! I’ve got a few other sample libraries in the works which I’m slowly working on, and I want to experiment with true legato in the future as well, so this is not the last you’ll hear from me.

NEW in v1.2.3: Support for Oddsound MTS-ESP
At the time we released our current plugin versions, Avid could not provide an AAX SDK that would let us build Universal Binary AAX plugins. For this reason, we currently cannot support Pro Tools for Mac. Pro Tools for Windows is still supported.
For the time being, macOS Pro Tools users who are not running the native Silicon version should use the previous versions of our plugins, available from the Release Archive.
We hope to start work on native Silicon AAX support this year, as soon as our tight schedule allows. No ETA can be quoted yet.
Violin One is a free virtual instrument that takes a completely new path. Unlike the Hybrid Modeling technology used in many of our other instruments, Violin One combines physical modeling with behavior modeling. This results in a smaller footprint and excellent playability.
A standout feature of Violin One is its support for MIDI 2.0 and MPE, offering users an entirely new way to interact with the instrument through their devices. The higher resolution of MIDI 2.0 provides more precise control over the sound, along with numerous advantages when used with the latest MIDI 2.0-compatible keyboards and controllers.
Violin One is a virtual instrument with great potential, and we’re committed to continuously improving it. We greatly value user feedback—it’s the driving force behind the evolution of Violin One.
Key Feature:
Physical Modeling technology with a small size (20MB)
Embodied Microphone Modeling and 3D panner Effect Unit
Support latest MIDI 2.0 and MPE
Behavior Modeling on different techniques
Provides VST3 Version （Now only Windows Version, as Mac Version now need signing and notarize, it will take more time）
Okay. We admit it. We’re giving this incredible violin away in hopes of luring you in, of getting you interested in our other products. Yes, surprising as it may sound, we actually would like you to BUY something from us so we can keep the virtual doors open and keep on developing cool new products like our other amazing products like below.
The ultimate and NOW FREE guitar tone and effects software from Atomic Amplifiers!
Tonocracy Combines
Atomic’s all-new, cutting edge SchemAccurate amp simulation, our proprietary ToneSnap gear snapshot technology, and a suite of rapidly growing world-class effects into a single easy-to-use plugin and standalone app.
ToneSnap
ToneSnap gear snapshot technology recreates the detailed sonic representation of your own amps, cabs and pedals using our state-of-the-art AI-powered algorithms. Follow a quick, simple procedure with any audio interface, and Tonocracy will analyze your gear’s audio DNA and convert it into a portable, playable snapshot. But you don’t need to create your own – we have a rapidly-growing library to suit all tastes and playing styles. Quickly search for the perfect ToneSnap across an online library with content from a range of creators, from top names you already know to individual community members. Got an amazing specimen of an amp? Publish your own ToneSnap to share it with the world!
Tonocracy doesn’t require a powerful computer or dedicated graphics card – all processing is done in the cloud with our GPU servers, and you don’t have to worry about manually uploading or downloading files. Simply set up your amp, start the ToneSnap process, and within minutes you can get back to making music while we do the work in the background. When everything is ready, just a couple clicks will bring the new ToneSnap into your personal library, ready to use
Frustrated by other capture or profiling technology that always sounds under- or over-gained, or needs a particular piece of hardware to guarantee consistency? Tonocracy solves this problem once and for all. We’ve made sure that ToneSnap creators have the tools to easily and precisely calibrate any audio interface, taking the guesswork out of gain staging. When using any ToneSnap created with our procedure, the experience is as if you plugged straight into the real amp. When sharing a ToneSnap with other users, you can be confident that it will sound as intended, regardless of their interface.

PhiVerb
RoomLite is a high quality room reverb that makes your tracks come alive with its realistic emulations of small to medium-sized spaces. It uses the same room algorithm that is also featured in its parent plugin PhiVerb, and you can get it completely free of charge!
How to get it
Simply sign up for an account by clicking on the user icon at the top right (or in the drop-down menu if you are on mobile). After this, you will have access to the dashboard, where you will find the download for the installer as well as your activation key.
The same installer also gives you access to a free 14 day trial of PhiVerb, which offers extra functionalities and three additional algorithms that can cover all of your reverb needs.
Click here for the full guide.
Algorithm character
RoomLite’s sounds go from adding a subtle sense of dimension to producing clearly perceptible tails that almost border on hall reverb territory. Just like in a real room, the early reflections mound seamlessly into the tail, with a character can range from claustrophobic to open. The “Damping” parameters let you recreate anything between a muffled closet to a tiled room.
After installation, please load the plugin in an empty DAW session and check its functionality.
