SampleTank 4

ACOUSTIC PIANO

After auditioning over 100 pianos, we chose a spectacular Yamaha C7 as our flagship. Meticulously maintained and with a unique warmth and richness of tone, we carefully recorded it with multiple sets of microphones - including binaural mics! This unique piano offers unbelievable tonal flexibility and rounds out an impressive collection that’s sure to fit your needs.

ELECTRIC PIANO

New recordings of famous electric piano sounds — tine-based, reed-based and based on FM synthesis — all from perfectly maintained instruments of the most desirable models and years. A unique sampling process gives you control over the harmonic content so you can tilt the character without touching an EQ.

BASS

SampleTank 4 adds both studio standards and rare instruments. From a beautiful 5-string P-bass to an unmistakable 1960s California classic to high-end Stick touchboard bass, SampleTank 4 captures a wide range of velocities and articulations — including finger, pick, slap, pull and noise, adding to an already massive low-end collection.

BRASS

New Modern Brass ensembles offer a more contemporary feel than traditional libraries and unmatched realism. A full range of instruments were carefully recorded with an ear towards capturing the perfect tone for each instrument. Pair these with the wealth of jazz and orchestral instruments also included to cover every style and genre.

CHROMATIC

New marimba, vibraphone, xylophone and glockenspiel have all been recorded with multiple mallet types as well as a pristine vintage clavinet with multiple pickup positions to cover funk, pop, rock and more.

ELECTRONIC DRUMS

New electronic drum kits deliver the freshest beats – samples and loops in today’s most popular styles. Taken from drum machines both vintage and modern, and carefully tuned to match the sounds coming from the clubs and concert stages of today’s biggest DJs and performers, these kits are built to power your next hit.

GUITAR

New electric and acoustic guitars surpass our previous libraries to deliver natural, authentic tones. Electric guitars sound amazing, and shine when used with the AmpliTube amp modeling effects included inside SampleTank 4. And new acoustics like a steel string Jumbo and Parlor, and a Brazilian Nylon String surpass even our American Acoustic library.

SYNTHS

Everything from raw oscillators to searing leads, ultra-fat synth basses and animated and evolving sweeps, pads and atmospheres gives you the latest sounds for any production from cinematic to ambient, from EDM to pop, from jazz to hip hop. These modern new sounds offer a perfect complement to the existing vintage library in Syntronik. Our DRIFT algorithm that simulates the organic movement of both analog oscillators and acoustic instruments has been expanded in SampleTank 4.

VOICES

A new Pop Choir delivers a unique, modern sound completely different from the endless stream of concert choirs, to nurture your tracks with soul and style. You’ve never heard musicianship like this in a sample library before. Every technical aspect is perfect, but we worked tirelessly to capture the passion and humanity of these performances.

WOODWINDS

A new Pop Woodwinds ensemble adds new saxophones (Alto, Tenor and Baritone), and a new Flute, accurately capturing even breath and key noise, plus round-robin sampling, for unmatched realism. This complements the existing orchestral sample set, covering the full range of instruments from contrabassoon to piccolo.
