For example, back in the late 60s when Paul McCartney detuned those Mellotron® MKII Flute tapes for the opening of Strawberry Fields Forever, magic was created and has resonated ever since.

Steven Porter has launched a new version of the acclaimed virtual intrument/samplebank Sound Of The Quadra (Kontakt)

Added the ability to switch off the Convolution reverb by adding an on/off switch in the effects section(switch is in the lead section of the effects section)This helps when running Sounds of the Quadra on older machines because Kontakts Convolution reverb is a cpu eater.If CPU is high on older machines you can now switch off the Convolution reverb.
