The Vienna Symphonic Library team announces a one-month limited time offer this February.

Users who purchase at least three Single Instrument products between February 1 and February 28, 2013, will receive a Single Instrument of their choice for free. Five, seven or nine purchased Single Instrument products will yield even more free instruments.

Deep House - Club Sounds Vol. 1 is split in two sections. The library's core is built by 499 loops and 225 single sounds, arranged in categories but ready to be combined freely.

Among the loops, you will find basslines with synth-, electric- and acoustic sounds, complex backing loops, filtered and effect-manipulated guitar-riffs, atmospheric pads, synths and chords as well as spacey SFX.
Rhythmic content is provided in form of groovy No-Kick- and Percussion-loops, complemented by a single-sound-section with bass drums, snares, claps, hi-hats and cymbals to forge your individual beats. This library part is 780MB in size.

With Loop Drummer available inside of AmpliTube, users can jam and practice over single loops or entire drum sequences, or they can compose a full-length drum track (with intro, groove variations, fills, and ending) to be used as a start-up rhythmic base for recording full multitrack compositions on the AmpliTube recorder.

Loop Drummer sports over 500 loops, which are available in a variety of popular styles including Rock, Blues, Country, Metal, Funk, and more. Loops are grouped in "Style Packs" containing up to 64 different loops for each of the available styles, which are organized in 8 "songs" with 8 loops each, including intros, outros, fills, and alternate parts.

EHX introduces a new, super looping recorder version of the 2880, with state-of-the-art features: the 45000 Multi-Track Looping Recorder.

Each loop has four mono tracks and one stereo mixdown track. The 45000 records non-compressed, 16bit/44.1kHz direct to a removable SDHC card (4 to 32GB). Each card holds up to 100 individual loops accessed with the optional 45000 Foot Controller (sold separately).
