| Voices of Passion review in Mix Magazine |
| Wednesday, April 2, 2008 |
| I almost jumped out of my seat the first time I instantiated this library and played a note. That’s how much personality these performances capture. The amount of attitude is in fact the strength of VOP and, in a sense, its limitation. Female singers from America, Bulgaria, Syria, and Wales were... [MORE] |
| FAB FOUR in Mix Magazine |
| Tuesday, April 1, 2008 |
| Given their beauty, and the ease with which they can be molded, the bulk of the Fab Four samples are both outstandingly accurate reproductions of sounds that helped create some of the most memorable music in the history of rock, and sample sets that can be turned into aural tapestries that evoke...

I’m confident that if Jerry Goldsmith were alive today, he would echo my sentiments, as so many of the sounds I’m hearing I’ve heard live in many memorable sessions. This is a great collection that offers no end... [MORE] |
| FAB FOUR review KEYBOARD 02/2008 |

| Standouts for uncanny realism include, well, pretty much the entire library — the guitar sounds are so authentic they could have been lifted directly off the original multitrack session tapes. Fab Four absolutely nails the iconic instrument sounds created at Abbey Road Studios by the Beatles,... [MORE] |
| Voices of Passion wows in EQ Magazine |
| Tuesday, February 12, 2008 |
| Wow! Well, that’s the short-form review. To elaborate, these are superbly-recorded “ethnic” samples from Bulgaria, Syria, India, Wales (think Enya), and America (which tend toward more multisampled notes rather than idiosyncratic phrases).

Check out: "With A Little Help From My Bass", "Bass Tripper", "Because I'm A Harpsichord", "Madonna Piano", "Baby I'm Clavioline", "Strawberry Flutes", "We Can Work A Harmonium", "I'm A... [MORE] |
