This is a sample library of a Ludwig drum kit which bring the drum sounds of the ’70s in mix-ready form. It features multiple round-robins and articulations recorded to tape. The drums allegedly sound like those in that little piano song about imagining peace and freedom and all that. Anyway, I never liked that one, but millions of people did, and that’s okay. The sample library devs put in all the effort and respect needed to emulate the original signal chain used for that song in particular. The drums sound very appropriate, indeed, and for the price of USD 10, the library is a solid addition. It requires the full Kontakt 5.4.3 or higher. Either that, or load the WAV files in a sampler.
Piano samples: Soitta Soundworks Interlude Piano

Loot Audio released a new virtual instrument by Soitta Soundworks. It’s called Interlude Piano and it brings the sounds of 4 multi-sampled pianos. But each piano can morph between pads and evolving soundscapes – so that’s four ethereal, dynamic pianos with several tone shaping possibilities. That’s better than one boring piano library for sure!
Interlude Piano is available for Windows and Mac in VST3 and AU plugin formats. It is on sale for an introductory 30% off until August 25, 2022.
Deal: W.A. Production Summer Sounds Mega Pack (90% off)
W.A. Production premiered a new value bundle called Summer Sounds Mega Pack. It’s a collection of 9 sound packs offered at a 90% discount for a while. It includes a selection of audio, templates, and video courses priced just USD 20 (down from USD 189) until September 1, 2022.
