Great news. Two well respected companies there. I have a fair bit of IK stuff from buying one of their Max suites when it was on offer. I don’t have any Orange Tree samples I have read good things about them. Are the libraries shown the ones that will be in the giveaway?

The two products that will be given away to two winners are:

• IK Multimedia ReSing MAX, the premium version of IK Multimedia’s voice AI plugin. It retails for $199 USD.
• Orange Tree Samples Evolution Indie, a virtual electric guitar sample library for Kontakt Player (the free player, so you don’t need to own the full version of Kontakt to use it) sample library. It retails for $179.

 

Personally, I’m eager to check out ReSing. Lately, IK has been hitting it out of the park, IMO. Pianoverse and Hammond B-3X blow me away and IK effects have always been excellent. The reviews for ReSing have been great, so I’m eager to check that out soon (there seems to be a passion project called LinkedMusicians that’s kept me from being able to find time to work on music projects, pretty much the entire year).

As for Orange Tree Samples Evolution Indie Rock, Evolution guitars are my go-to virtual guitar instruments and while it’s very difficult to choose a favorite, Evolution Indie Rock is easily in my top 5 favorite Evolution electric guitar instruments. BTW, I wrote instruments, and often call Evolution guitars and bass sample libraries, but they’re actually a hybrid of sample library and physical modeling. I’ve been obsessed with virtual guitar I could play from keyboards since the 80s. The Evolution guitar and bass line is literally my dream virtual guitar line. I think that everyone here is very aware that maybe 15 years or so ago, after being blown away by Orange Tree Samples’ guitar and bass libraries, I contacted Greg Schlaepfer with extensive ideas for what became the Evolution line of guitars and bass (I’ve given advice to several other sample developers who make guitar sample libraries). So I have some serious personal history there. Also know that the Evolution line were the first virtual guitars to be used in final production on TV, movie, and games soundtracks, on trailers, and pop hits. Major composers — the biggest names (yep, that guy) use Evolution.
