THE STROH VIOLIN BY IMPACT SOUNDWORKS (VST, AU, AAX) The Stroh Violin is a curious acoustic instrument invented by electrical engineer John Matthias Augustus Stroh, who, of course, named it after himself. Stroh conceived of a violin constructed with a metal resonator and horn, producing a louder, brighter sound compared to a traditional wood violin. He patented his design in 1899. OPTIMIZING YOUR KONTAKT WORKFLOW, PART 1 The Kontakt sampler plugin by Native Instruments has come a long way since it was first released in 2002; it went from being the underdog (compared with Tascam’s Gigastudio) to the most dominant sample editing and playback software in the industry.

TESTIMONIAL - WILL MORTON (GRAND THEFT AUTO V, L.A. NOIRE, RED DEAD REDEMPTION)
"Allura is fantastic, it is so much more than a selection of samples. It puts me as close to being in the studio directing the vocalist as I can imagine."
BRAVURA SCORING BRASS REVIEW - SOUND ON SOUND "Boasting a highly effective true legato mode for all instruments, the library is technically excellent, with deep programming facilities lurking beneath the bonnet. The instruments (which play a decent range of common articulations and aleatoric effects) sound very nice indeed: ‘opulent’ is the word that springs to mind." (Sound On Sound )
TESTIMONIAL - DANNY BARANOWSKY (CRYPT OF THE NECRODANCER, BINDING OF ISAAC, SUPER MEAT BOY) "Super Audio Cart fills a niche in my chiptune arsenal that has been sorely lacking. The SNES-style patches sound so authentic, and the multi-chip patches bring usability and versatility I haven't seen in a chiptune instrument before." TESTIMONIAL - JIMMY 'BIG GIANT CIRCLES' HINSON (BLACK OPS 4, BORDERLANDS 2, THREES) "Between Shreddage, Super Audio Cart, Juggernaut, and Mega Brass I don't remember the last time I haven't used an Impact Soundworks instrument in a track. The attention to detail is astonishing and it's all so easy to use out of the box, which is a big deal." TESTIMONIAL - TOM SALTA (PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS, KILLER INSTINCT, WOLFENSTEIN: YOUNGBLOOD) "Shreddage is one of the most flexible and playable virtual electric guitar instruments I've ever used. The fact that the sounds were recorded clean without any distortion breaks the mold from most other guitar libraries and allows me to dial in the exact sound I want."
