This instrument puts a complete orchestra on a single track of your DAW (so you don't need to create additional tracks). You can add strings, brass, woodwinds and even percussion at the same time, using only one MIDI channel.
The sounds of the different instruments are mapped on different sections of the keyboard, and they are velocity dependent. The only controls on the GUI are the reverb and volume faders.
This is a free sketching tool, created for songwriting/demo recording, and oriented towards beginners and songwriters who need a simple and fast tool, so it does not include multiple articulations or round robin samples. It is not supposed to be an alternative to big, professional sampled instruments and libraries.
The instrument is provided as-is, with no warranties. 32-bit and 64-bit versions are available. It should work fine on most DAWs. It has beed developed and tested on a Windows 10 PC and it worked fine with Reaper, Tracktion, Studio One, Podium, MuLab and SAVIHost.
This virtual instrument was designed by Luis Valoyes using samples from the VSCO Community Edition. The plugin is powered by Maize Sampler.
This is a simple and free VSTi plugin created to let you add some drums to your productions. The plugin comes with a single drumkit, and it uses the standard GM mapping, so most of the existing MIDI drum loops that you can find online will work fine with it.
The instrument has separate volume faders for the different parts of the kit (snare, kick, hat, cymbals and toms), a general volume knob and a general reverb knob.

ComBear is an EXTREMELY powerful and incredibly dynamic Parallel Compression effect plugin that brings an amazing sound and feel to Drums, Synth, Vocals and anything else you can thank of! This plugin is going to change the game and sound the EDM Industry.
ComBear is packed full of incredible features like; Compress, Mix, Input Gain, Make-Up Gain and Bypass. By adjusting the Compress knob, you increase the Parallel Compression that ComBear adds to the element from value 0 to 100. Bypass ComBear’s effects on an element by flipping the Bypass switch, correct the Make-Up Gain that is altered based on how much compression you add to the element by adjusting the Make-Up Gain, adjust how much gain comes in from the element by adjusting the Input Gain and finally adjust how much of ComBear you hear on the element with the Mix knob. The Idea behind this plugin was of course Parallel Compression.
The main way ComBear can be used is add the plugin to a certain element then have the ability to compress that element pretty hard, and then mix this harshly compressed element with a duplicate of the element that is not compressed. This tactic brings a bold, delightful and intense sound to any and all elements of the production. ComBear is a must-have tool in the production world, and is something any and all producers should look into investing in.
What is Parallel Compression? In the simplest way, Parallel Compression, also called New York Compression, is a very dynamic range compression technique that is used in sound recording and mixing. Basically, Parallel Compression is a big form of upward compression and is achieved by mixing an unprocessed “dry”, or lightly compressed signal with a heavily compressed version of the same signal. The Compress knob is what will add the Parallel Compression to the element from the value 0 to 100.
Modartt has released Organteq Alpha, free physically modelled pipe organs that reproduces the complex behaviour of the organ flue pipe.
Organteq Alpha is a small organ with a keyboard range of 4 octaves (from F1 to F5) and with 2 stops: a Flute 8' and a Flute 4' (octave). It is provided for free in standalone mode and should be regarded as a foretaste of a more advanced commercial version in development, due to be released during 2018.
The new generation physical model for organ, created by Modartt, provides a technically sophisticated reproduction of the interaction between the air jet and the pipe. It brings vividness to the instrument, especially during attack transient, reproducing natural speeches of organ flue pipes, and also during the sustain, where the wind fluctuations induce variation in pitch and amplitude. During the release transient, as the jet diminishes, the air jet/pipe interaction breaks and thus allows the pipe to vibrate on its own resonances, producing glitches in pitch.

HyVibe Audio has launched an Indiegogo campaign for the HyVibe Guitar, the world’s first smart acoustic guitar.
HyVibe Guitar
The HyVibe Guitar uses a proprietary vibration technology and a wireless Bluetooth connection to become its own connected speaker, multi-effect processor, recorder, and amplifier, without all the cables, amps, or pedals.
“Acoustic guitar players have high standards for natural sound, but also want the features and flexibility of digital,” said Dr. Adrien Mamou-Mani. “We address these needs by using the natural vibration of the guitar to create the best possible sounds and add digital control and connectivity to give the player effects, recording, and playback – all within the guitar itself.”
What is a Smart Acoustic Guitar?
The HyVibe Guitar begins with a solid AA spruce top for the best natural vibrations and custom-built specs for the ultimate in playability. HyVibe then introduces their proprietary algorithms and multiple actuators to transform the natural vibrations of the guitar from the top plate, by the bridge where the instrument performs best to add high quality effects. Digital recording and looping features are included for convenient songwriting, performing, and practice. Finally, wireless Bluetooth technology is embedded as well as an Android and iOS App, connecting the guitar, and it’s player to the world.
Musicians have been songwriting, recording and performing with prototype HyVibe Guitars since 2011, providing valuable feedback from real-world use.
“Based on years of research, our technology fuses the world of acoustics and digital in a way that has never been done before. Since we excite our guitar by the bridge, the origin of the digital sound is practically the same as the natural excitation by the strings. When the live sound, the effects, and the backing tracks are all coming from the guitar itself, it’s a unique experience that the player can really feel,” added Dr. Mamou-Mani.
HyVibe Guitar features:
A responsive and dynamic acoustic guitar built with a solid AA spruce top and excellent craftsmanship, natural feel and a rich range of tones.
Multi-effects from the body of the guitar: chorus, reverb, delay, distortion, phaser, tremolo, boost and more.
Mobile App Control for Android and iOS: change the effects on the guitar, share effect setting, and recording with friends & the world.
Record, loop and share instantly.
Bluetooth connectivity: use the body of the guitar as a speaker for backing tracks or song playback.
Output and input jacks to connect to an external amplifier or connect pedals.
Built-in tuner, metronome, and EQ.
The HyVibe Guitar is available for pre-order on Indiegogo. Early birds can pick it up at $499 USD + shipping.
