Oberheim OB-EZ

Reviewed By zisser [all]
April 14th, 2024
Version reviewed: 1 on Windows

This synth is basically a preset player for the bigger synth Oberheim OB-E. You get the same presets and same sound with few tweaking options. If you are not into synth programming this is perfect for getting that thick and lush sound.

Here's my overview and demo: https://youtu.be/eZlU5B-lzGE.

Version reviewed: 1.0 on Windows

Another great plugin by Pulsar Audio and this time it's the Primavera spring reverbs.
This plugin is all about grit and low-fi sound with a cool preamp section and the 6 vintage reverbs.

Pianoteq Standard 8

Reviewed By zisser [all]
January 13th, 2024
Version reviewed: 8 on Windows

This is one of the best pianos out there. It's not samples and instead they are physically modelled.
The same engines can run other instruments as well such as guitars, steel drums, harp, electric piano and more.

Here is a quick overview covering the basics.

Session Guitarist - Electric Mint

Reviewed By zisser [all]
December 30th, 2023
Version reviewed: 1 on Windows

This is my favorite session guitarist kontakt library. It sounds great and I love the extra features like chord progressions and drag & drop MIDI. It's easy to use and the effect pedals and amps sound great.

Here is my review and demo.

Desolate Guitars

Version reviewed: 1 on Windows

This could easily be my favority 2023 virtual instrument. The sound and atmosphere are so authentic. There are 4 guitars with a blend of two amps. The mod-wheel gives some extra control like changing picking from open to muted, forward or reverse and minor to major chords.

Here is my quick review and demo

Efx Refract

Reviewed By zisser [all]

Version reviewed: 1 on Windows

Arturia did it again!
This plugin is too good to be free (christmas 2023).

Basically a twist on unison voices. There are three parts to this plugin: voices (refract). effects and modulations.
Take any boring sound and make ite better.

Best Service and Sonuscore always deliver!
This library really makes it easy to create musical stories for cinema, game and trailer.
There are many useful sound design and composing tools included as well as inter-communication between instances to transmit the chord progression. In addition you can drag&drop the chords and melodies.

Synth Anthology 4

Reviewed By zisser [all]
September 17th, 2023
Version reviewed: 4 on Windows

UVI released UVI Synth Anthology 4 rebuilding the sound engine adding layering option (two sound layers), effects and modulations. As with such UVI sound banks this is not an emulation of the original hardware synth but more of a sampled sounds player. But with about 200 units sampled and tones of presets I guess there is a lot to explore.

Acid V

Version reviewed: 1 on Windows

This is so much fun and inspiring. Arturia take on TB303 is so good and with all the goodies Arturia added.
Arturia recreated the original unit as virtual instrument but also added sub oscillator, distortion unit, sequencer, modulation and cool effects.

Watch my deep dive for more details.
