Sample Logic releases A.I.R. Expanded

Sample Logic has announced that it has "taken A.I.R. into the next generation" with the upgrade to A.I.R. Expanded.

Ambience Impacts Rhythms / A.I.R.'s sample programming and user interface have been completely redesigned and enhanced from the ground up with five independent screens of more than 40 assignable effects and performance parameters. In addition, Sample Logic has meticulously revamped every original A.I.R. instrument and introduced a whole new collection of performance-ready instruments and multis.

A.I.R. Expanded blends the three essential building blocks of music (Ambience, Impacts, and Rhythms) into one score-effectual toolkit. Powered by Native Instruments Kontakt Player, this extensive 6 GB virtual instrument contains over 900 instruments and multis that include atmospheric soundscapes, impactual transitions, tempo-synced rhythmic loops and much more.

It's available now as a direct download. The Boxed version will be available March 1st, 2010. The MSRP is $359.99 (Download or Boxed). Current owners can upgrade for $49.99 (Download Only).
