As you play the instruments, you'll recognize many signature sounds-guitars, keyboard, drums, sitar-but that doesn't mean you have to play the licks they provided for the Beatles. In fact, using them in other contexts provides an intriguing combination of freshness and deja vu; these are highly playable, "organic" sounds that have intrinsic merit and coolness, regardless of their lineage. The quality is undeniable, I can't imagine what East West must have gone through to track down these sounds (and get engineer Ken Scott on board), tweak them to perfection, and adapt them to a virtual instrument format. Bottom line: There are many great sound libraries out there, but this is a tour de force. (EQ Magazine, May 2008)

PLAY version 1.2.0 (and above) includes a new Advanced Streaming Engine (ASE) developed by EASTWEST that offers huge performance gains over previous sampler streaming engines. In this video, Nick Phoenix shows how the PLAY ASE engine provides the power to run large arrangements and orchestrations, and you will see the voice count exceed 400 stereo voices.
