This Free Sample Library gives you an opportunity, to listen and check the quality of the sound libraries we release, with your own ears. Files are royalty-free and of course, you can use them in any of your projects, both commercial and non-commercial. These are for you.

We’ve chosen a couple of sounds from each of our first four libraries released so far: Sounds of Oman, Virgin Forest, Cameras and Pick it Up and Put it Down.

The library consists of 32 wave files all @ 96kHz/24bit.

The sounds selected from our Ambisonic Libraries - Virgin Forest, Sounds of Oman - come in a variety of formats:

Ambisonics FUMA, Ambisonics AMBIX B, 5.1 and of course Stereo. The Pick it Up and Put it Down sounds as well as the Cameras sounds come in mono.

Download is 3.4GB

What is NanoHost?

NanoHost is not a synthesizer. It is a free, minimalist host application for Windows that can load VST-synths. Furthermore, it can act as a wrapper which converts VST-synthesizers into standalone applications.

This essential, tiny tool works best for live-performance, sound-design, jam-sessions and testing.

Quote

Key Features

• It can convert a VST-synth into a standalone-application. You just need to rename NanoHost.exe to the name of the plugin.dll and copy it to the same directory. When you start plugin.exe, the VST-synth is wrapped and loaded automatically.
• The output of a plugin can be recorded to a wav-file in high quality.
• NanoHost can create random patches.
• It offers a soft-clipping algorithm with low distortion and tube-sound.
• Scrollbars allow you to work also with plugins larger than your screen resolution. It is possible to display also only a part of the plugin's interface.
• Midi-notes can be transposed and Midi-channels can be filtered. There are several Midi-velocity curves available.
• Your current sound-bank can be stored and loaded automatically.
• It is also compatible with very old 32-bit plugins.
• It does work also with older computers.

More temporary clutter   .. shur we have Cakewalk what more do we need

@ZincT After this pandemic is eventually over ( whenever that will be ) we are all going to have so much FREE stuff we might never need to buy anything again

It appears that you can't access the older free issue (168) download - it only goes back to issue 180 on the webpage - unless I've missed something. Not a big issue as nothing there I'm that bothered about but it would have been nice to check it out

https://www.musictech.net/news/magazine/musictech-dvd-download-area/

Yes scroll down that page and you will see the FREEWARE EDITION big image, click that ( issue 200 ) .. this opens the vault site where you can use the DVD CODE you get with the free digital mag ( Page 6 ). Remember to use caps and lower case if your code has same. It is case sensitive

Got this earlier - there's another free mag in there if you scroll back a bit in the issues!

I wonder is the 3GB+ download for that mag any different from the download for current free edition?

Thanks Aidan.

I did find the code eventually but it didn't work which I assume is because I also need to create a MusicTech Wetransfer account as well as a MusicTech account (already done the latter).

I use Wetransfer quite a lot but have never needed to create an account. If I do create a general one do you know if that will also work as a MusicTech Wetransfer account or do I need a separate one for MusicTech as well?

Cheers!

@ZincT No I dont think you have to. I had same issue .. BUT solved by typing the password / code as is WITH CAPS and lower case .. then it worked!!

I dont have an a/c with wetransfer or musictech

The code you require to download the 3.4GB of DVD content is on PAGE 6 of that free mag ( end of page on right in Yellow bar ).

Link to access this is at:

Use the code in your FREE Mag above, then d/load

Still available for anyone who has  not got it yet

As usual, you will find an enormous fund of gripping sounds and samples on our DVD. Friends of analog sounds will get their money's worth with the samples of the vintage synths Roland SH-09, Formanta Polivoks and Korg Delta. Two sound instruments from AAS await you as a highlight this month. You can choose between 46 top-class sound packages. Another highlight is the powerful mixing and mastering tool T-RackS ONE from IK Multimedia.

They seem to have some nice stuff monthly. I wonder is it possible to get an English version of the mag. You get access to all past and current content on https://www.studiodrive.de/

Nice one

AND you get access to the DVD content

Inside is also a code to access our DVD content, including 1GB of free software production tools, plus loads of samples.

@ZincT My bad  .. thanks for that. The word Sequencer in the name somehow went by me

Downloaded this and added to rack, getting no sound out of it. Switched to back panel and no connections to mixers etc, no cables. I reckon thats it.

Anyone any idea how to rig this up in the rack to get sound?

I am also using this reason rack as a plugin in CW .. 

If first time visitor you get a 10% off coupon which you can use on these also .. so less than $3 each

I've only got Live 10 Lite and so these didn't appear to work for me but the Palette and Soundscaper free instruments make very nice noises indeed - even if only a few of them 

You need the Simpler instrument for these, that isnt with Lite I dont think

After much digging . . .   It is NOT available in the US.  I did manage to get a screen to come up that will notify me if/when if become available - otherwise no deal for US

 

Syphus

Interesting, because us over here in Europe used to look on with envy at what was offered in Netflix US that we dont get here like alot more current movies etc. However i think thats sorting itself these days and the difference gap is closing. Of course VPNs

I am on version 6 so it's only another 3 synths for me :- Mellotron V, CZ V and Synthi V.  It's tempting and at least I know how to split the payments now (👍) which leaves more left over to spend on other stuff.  

More of a no-brainer for you though as you would also get the Buchla Easel, Yamaha DX-7, Clavinet and Fairlight CMI. 

@pwalpwal this also answers your question (v5 to v7 gets you the seven items listed above in addition to what have already).

Thanks @ZincT

Would i also be right in saying that there has been significant UI improvements between v5 and v7. I was having for example sizing issues in v4, and other things I cannot remember now in v5

Thanks @aidan o driscoll that worked!

Wonder why you only get the offer if you go through that sequence of screens?!

@ZincT As I said, I reckon they dont have the site updated fully for of yet?

Are you going to jump for this? What version have you? Is it 5 like me?
