BPB Cassette Drums

Reviewed By Gabriel_West [all]
November 7th, 2023
Version reviewed: 1.1 on Windows

Truely an improvement and succeeded enhancement of it's already quite popular predecessor V1.0. It includes now a complete set of elements for the 909, 808 etc, a nice graphical Interface, which allows any kind of tweakings you need and sounds even better in quality of sound than before.

If you owned the old BPB Cassette V1.0, it's really worth the effort, in exchanging it with this newer V1.1, since the developers really did a great job here. (Best plugin from BPB in my opinion) The outcome is: 5 stars out of 5 for this masterpiece.

Poly 2106

Version reviewed: 1.0 on Windows

Best free "Roland Juno 106" emulation. (One of the most legendary Pop Synth of the 80's/90's) and without a doubt, the ultimate No1 most underestimated free Synthesizer VST here on KVR at this moment when I've posted this. It has some wonderful sounding presets you shouldn't miss, just check out it's preset called "Carpet Pad Magic" for '100-140 BPM' fast four-part harmony String Progressions and get excited of it. The functions and tweakable settings on the GUI are very versatile. Only drawback: Its only available in 32-bit, but with JBridge (makes 32-bit plugins work on 64-bit systems/DAWs) no problem at all, using and enjoying it, in particular, if you are a fan of 80s 90s vibe sounds, like Eurodance or Pop Rock you shouldn't avoid this pick. 5,999p of 5 stars. (Yep, better than 5 of 5 not only because rare (free) Juno 106 emulations with decent quality are something special).

Clean Electric Guitar

Version reviewed: 1.0 on Windows

Useful Clean Guitar (as Lead) with a beautiful GUI and pretty precise and clean sound. Well, not perfect, but since decent free Guitar plugins are rare, it's absolutely worth the download! p.s: the lower notes sit surprisingly well in the mix which is often not the case for other guitar vst's. Great work by samplescience, the developer who just came up with a magnificent French violin lately (same gui like this1) which totally impressed me.

Version reviewed: 3.2.1 on Windows

Zynewave Podium is definitely the best free digital Audioworkstation available right now for me. It includes so many valuable features, has by far the most userfriendly graphical interface, runs smoothly on low-end pc's (a prove for professional programming of the developers), the workaround is totally intuitive, what allows users lerning it's functions and menus quite rapidely, since almost any of them are selfexplanatory (Already composed lot's of serious pieces with Podium without spending much time with it's manual, ..guess that speaks for itself) and the most important thing: It contains all of the necessary functions, that a professional composer needs. Furthermore, if you search through the web, to find out, which free DAW is actually known as the best and most powerful Musicmaking Tool, you'll quickly figure, that many experts will agree with my opinion. Just give it a try, this DAW will absolutely impress you, futher, it will inspire your mind to compose new music with fresh impulses of motivation. Here are some free VSTi hints for people that are still newbys in digital composing: (Anything of the following free VSTi's suits well especially for the Pop/Rock or Pop Ballads genre btw) .. Drums) MT Power Drum Kit 2, ..Bass) sfz Soundfontplayer + NTonyx 32MB GM Stereo Bank / Fingered Bass [Combining both] <- Awesome clean quality bass for free!, ..Guitars) Ample Guitar M-Lite II (Acoustic), Sampletank 2 / Clean Guitar (E-Guitar), Spicey Guitar (Nylon), Revitar (Synth Guitar) ..Synth Strings) Orpheus Strings, Esline ..Synthesizers / Pads) Cobalt / Warm Pad etc., Efemme Warm Pad, Poly 2106, Superwave P8. ..E-Pianos) 4Front E-Piano, DSK Elektrik KeyZ (Maybe the best VSTi from DSK by far!), D-Piano-E, EP 2008 ..Pianos) Keyzone Classic, Piano One ..Percussion) sfz Soundfontplayer + NTonyx 32MB GM Stereo Bank / Power Drum Kit (supports correct MIDI map order) <- ..hope this helped, have fun and happy composing. :-).
