The results are in!

To celebrate the upcoming release of our new flagship scoring library JUGGERNAUT: Cinematic Electronic Scoring Tools, we asked composers to write a piece in <2 weeks incorporating our free Cinematic Synthetic Drums library (the precursor to Juggernaut). It was VERY difficult to narrow these down to just a handful of our favorites, so we added both Runners-up and Honorable Mentions to represent some of the other wonderful compositions we enjoyed. Despite this, there were still tons of other amazing compositions, making it quite the challenge to figure out the winners.

You ALL have raised the bar. A huge THANK YOU to everyone that wrote and submitted something: we hope you are all proud of your work on a short deadline, and that you will enjoy both the free CSD and the FULL version of Juggernaut for years to come!

https://soundcloud.com/isworks/sets/jug ... -challenge

Judging: We considered composition, production, and overall creativity, which can shine through in many ways: how the free samples were used, unique arrangements, musical styles, or tonalities, etc. For example, the 1st place entry "TIKIPUNK" uses 100% CSD samples and some very imaginative re-processing, sampling and resynthesis to create a huge palette of tones. Quite inspiring!

1st Place receives JUGGERNAUT: Cinematic Electronic Scoring Tools, an ISW library of their choice, and a Google Nexus 7.
2nd and 3rd Places receive JUGGERNAUT: Cinematic Electronic Scoring Tools and an ISW library of their choice.
Runners-up receive JUGGERNAUT: Cinematic Electronic Scoring Tools.
Honorable Mentions receive a 30% discount for JUGGERNAUT!

I'm in, but I'm not counting on a win!

Hey, that rhymed!

One question though. You said CSD and "any other ISW library"

I might end up putting a bit of Shreddage 2 in it. What are the rules for production tools like amp sims, compressors, etc? Can I use Amplitube over it?

Yes, you can use ANY other tools you want, even stuff that isn't ours. That includes other plugins

So it just has to have CSD somewhere in the composition? Obviously the main part or pretty prevalent, but you get what I'm asking.

Yeah, as long as it's used in some recognizable way.

I can't seem to activate the library , it's still in demo mode, when I try to load the library in kontakt I get a "no library found" message

U need full kontakt, cds does not have the proper licensing from Native Instruments to be used in the free Kontakt Player

Correct, however you can always use the WAV files in any drum sampler, or drag them right into your DAW.
