Samplebase.com has announced the release of Satellite Pro.
One of the most unique features of Samplebase.com is the free sample-playback synth engine Satellite, a feature-packed VST/AU plug-in and stand-alone player exclusively for Samplebase users. Now this unique download platform offers an even better version that Samplebase.com claims rivals the leading players on the market: Satellite Pro loads REX, Wave, and Acid files and includes features such as auto-mapping, a sample editor, batch processing, a patch editor with three ADSTR envelopes, an effects module, and much more. A full list of features of Satellite and Satellite Pro can be found here. Through November 11, 2007, Satellite Pro is being offered for download for $99. The regular price after this introductory offer will be $149.
Since the recent launch of Samplebase.com, the in-house A&R team has continued to add new Soundblocks to the web site.
Peter DiStefano's famous talent for creating mind-bending guitar sounds is captured in Exopshere – Experimental Guitar ($29), available exclusively for Samplebase.com users. This SoundBlock contains over 100 atmospheric guitar phrases and loops in 80, 100, and 120 BPM that will automatically time-stretch in Satellite or Satellite Pro to match the tempo of the song.
Another new SoundBlock is Katastrophic Kutz – Virtual Vinyl ($29), a collection of royalty-free phrases scratched and decimated by turntablist Diggabeatz. Unlike many scratch libraries, each of the 300 loops and one-shots in Katastrophic Kutz was custom-made for this library, so users don't have to worry about "uncleared" samples. All phrases and FX used are also included in their original form, so users can combine these samples to create authentic scratch technique.
The latest addition to Samplebase.com includes "raw, rugged and relentless" drum beats. Catalyst Audio's Beatdown – Hard Hitting Drums ($29) have been tracked with grimy, vintage gear in a big live room. Many of the 33 live drum loops include fills, and the SoundBlock also contains 72 individual drum hits from the large kit used for the Beatdown loops. As with all Samplebase SoundBlocks, all loops can be easily adjusted to the host tempo using Satellite.
Samplebase.com is a new website dedicated to offering thousands of high quality, downloadable production-ready Loops, Phrases, and Multisampled Instruments that cater to today's "wired" musician. The sample-playback synth engines Satellite (free for all Samplebase users) and Satellite Pro run stand-alone on Macs and PCs, or as a plug-in in AU, VST (Universal Binary on Mac) and VST (PC) formats. The exclusive strategic partner of Samplebase is ILIO, carrying the highest quality virtual instruments, sample libraries, and creative tools for professional musicians.
