Simply Space is a free collection of atmospheric pads and melodic hits crafted by Nigel Good, a brilliant electronic music producer from Waterloo, Canada. Delivered straight from Nigel Good's music studio, this exclusive royalty free sound library features a diverse set of spacious melodic pads and emotional synth stabs with lush reverb tails which are the perfect tool for adding depth and lively background textures to your music.

Northern Lights

40 fresh patches from lush Leads to crunchy basses and soft pads to snappy plucks. The reason for this bank being so small is simple: There is only 40-user slots in Nord Rack 2, so the creator wasn't able to create more patches. This package is for Clavia Nord2 - series & discoDSP Discovery to use any kind of electronic dance music creations.

Audio Demo

The package is created with Clavia Nord Rack 2, so it's guaranteed to work on the selected models:

• Clavia Nord Lead2 / Rack2.
• Clavia Nord Lead 2x / Rack 2x.
• discoDSP Discovery Mac / Win / Linux.
• discoDSP Discovery Pro Mac / Win / Linux.

FJ Project Discovery Pro Bank

FJ Project has released a new commercial bank with 128 Sounds Preset Hard Trance, Hard Style, Tech Trance for Discovery Pro.

New, fresh and original 100% samples free for use in your productions. This Sound Bank Contain 128 different preset: Fat Synth, Acid&Dark Lead, Pad and Tech Sounds FX for Hard Trance, Tech Trance and Hard Style Music Production. Compatible with all model Discovery releases. All Sounds have been programmed by Luca Cominato alias FJ Project.

For someone who is not even 30 years old, Luca Cominato (also known as FJ Project) has created a name for himself in the hard trance world! Founder of the genre of music known as 'Darkstyle', you are guaranteed a mixture of ferocious beats, thumpin' acid and dark synth work with this Italian wonder! With numerous worldwide bookings, managing three very successful labels 'Darksquad' 'Trance National' and 'Acid Records', releases on some of the worlds finest imprints such as German Trance, Compulzion, Trance NRG, and running a radio show are just some of the many talents of this producer.

After starting to use Technics decks at the age of 13, it took until the age of 16 for Luca to enter the world by discovering sampling. After four years of this, the decision was made to cooperate with his brother Massimiliano Cominato alias MAX ONE and ULTRAPHONIC Studio was formed. This opened up a whole new dimension for Luca as he was allowed to explore his sound and release many records under different guises, using the following aliases for productions: Hypersonic, The Projector, Dj Tom 809 and as he is most famously known FJ Project.

Under this guise he has revived the power of the 303 and produced countless hard trance tracks that feature distorted acid lines that rock the place, and DJs from Mark EG, Kutski,M-Zone, ASYS, Alex Kidd and Fausto right the way through to Scot Project and Bas & Ram are supporting his productions, with many DJs across the world praising him highly! Not just known for his excellent productions, Luca has DJ'd across the globe and has received bookings from Q-Dance to play the Orange Arena at Defqon 1 2009 (Holland), Nature One 2010 (Germany), HardNation and Programm 2 (Germany), Coast Club (DanimarK)in the UK he has been booked for the likes of FANTASY ISLAND, Atmosphere, Hindsight, Dekadance, Resonate, Premonition and Re-Beat to name just a few.

Receptor + discoDSP plugins

Muse Research, Inc. announced that it will ship the Discovery virtual analog synthesizer and Vertigo additive synth plug-in by discoDSP with their v1.0.1 software release. These synths bring remarkable functionality and a vast sound palette to Receptor, their portable hardware VST player. Discovery and Vertigo will be shown at the 117th AES show in addition to being made available for download on the company's www.plugorama.com website. All Receptor owners can download the plug-in from the plugorama website and try Discovery or Vertigo free for 30 days.

Discovery Features amazing virtual analog performance at a bargain price. Discovery DSP is a truly powerful virtual analog synth with dozens of powerful features, such as multi layering, a built-in arpeggiator, sync, FM capabilities, 8 filter types, panning modulation, stereo delay and gate effects, and thousands of enticing presets.

Discovery's architecture provides maximum flexibility when programming your own sounds. Start by selecting from the two oscillators, and then add one of the several types of filters, and then program the appropriate ADSR envelope for the sound. Finally, the flexible modulation scheme and built-in effects allow you to color your sound to your liking and save it to one of the 128 patch memories in one of 38 banks. With support for 4 layers per patch, and morphing between layers, Discovery quickly becomes a remarkably expressive synth for any type of music. Discovery even imports Nord Lead 2 and Nord Lead 2X patches directly.

Vertigo offers rich additive synthesis sounds coupled with powerful user interface. The notion of additive synthesis was once confined to research institutions due to the demanding computational load required by the nature of Additive Synthesis. Now with Receptor, it's possible to have additive synthesis available in a portable form. Vertigo has two discrete additive synth engines for creating layers, and also for morphing between individual sounds using a mod wheel or such real time parameters such as keyboard velocity.

Vertigo's programming capabilities are quite impressive, with a dedicated spectral viewmode that makes it possible to evolve spectra using a variety of control mechanisms,including importing the user's own bitmaps. To top it all off, Vertigo offers impressive resynthesis capabilities, a rather remarkable feature considering the price of the product.

For more information, about Receptor, visit www.museresearch.com, or send an email to info@museresearch.com, or call +(650) 326-5400.
