Hello :)

at DreamAudioTools we are proud to present our first library, Dream Keys.

Dream Keys is a piano-based sample library created as a toolbox for film composers, electronic and pop musicians. It offers a selection of carefully "designed" sounds derived from two different piano sets.
Our first goal has been to provide composers with a plug-n-play solution to get some of the most typical sounds heard on movies and TV (like those typical cinematic piano plucks), plus a variety of creatively crafted patches great for styles like soundtrack, electronica, hip hop and a lot more

Dream Keys is available for Kontakt 4.2.3 and above.


Below are a few demos which demonstrate Dream Keys in action:

Breaths
All sounds except drums and percussions are from Dream Keys

Nice! I love the sounds on your Reciprocal mirrors demo (and the demo tune itself)! Congratulations on your first release and best wishes for your new business. It sounds like a great first library to start with.

Hello,

just an heads up about our new downloads section which will include new patches and updates for all of our products.

We just added a new multi for Kontakt 5 owners kindly offered by artist Steve Tavaglione and featuring seven new patches. Steve is an amazing performer, composer and sound designer which counts a great number of collaborations (Sly and the Family Stone, George Benson , John Patitucci, Dave Weckl, Vinnie Colaiuta, Roger Waters, Michael Jackson, Sergio Mendez among the others) and is expecially known for performance and sound design work on more than twelve film scores by Thomas Newman. He also collaborated strictly with Lalo Schifrin, David Holmes, Ed Shearmur, Paul Haslinger, Jay Gruska and many others.

Thanks

Great sound and nice litt project, Luca.

How's the viola de gamba coming along? That was you wasn't it?

Cheers.

Sounds fantastic. I'm very interested in buying this.

Not to be crass in mentioning a competitor's products, but would you know how your product compares to Tonehammer's Emotional Piano? They both seem to offer that nice cinematic sound.

Post

Thanks so much guys! No, i'm afraid the viola da gamba it wasnt me :)

To be honest I dont have Emotional Piano, of course i like and respect Tonehammer.

What I can say is that Dream Keys comes out of a long time process (more than three years in effect) in shaping a sound that I always loved, sorta half way between Alan Silvestri and Thomas Newman's scores.

Thanks again

That Piano Set One patch is exactly what I've been looking for from a piano. As an Emotional Piano user, I think there's plenty of room in a studio for both. Though both capturing that soft, emotional cinematic sound, they do it differently.

Look forward to the Christmas sale Luca! ;)

Post

Hey Matt, thanks so much for the nice words. Being a newly announced product it will prolly not have a Christmas sale as i wouldnt be fair to actual loyal customers.

..but...

a nice surprise for those who purchase Dream Keys until Christmas is goin to be announced shortly. (it will affect all previous buyers as well).

Thanks
Luca
