A universe of sounds
SampleTank Custom Shop comes with 30 free instruments that have been meticulously sampled and painstakingly engineered by IK‘s team of audio professionals; that’s 8 more instruments than was available in the previous introductory version of SampleTank 3. The new material builds on that original collection by bringing in beautiful new electric pianos, emotionally charged string synths and funky new basses. These 30 free instruments can all be manipulated and used in SampleTank Custom Shop just like in the Full and SE versions. Musicians can use the powerful EDIT page and entire suite of advanced effects to tweak their sounds and explore an unlimited variety of sonic possibilities.
The Custom Shop
SampleTank Custom Shop also provides full access to SampleTank 3’s built-in Custom Shop (previously only available for users of SampleTank 3 Full and SE). Now, new users can browse, purchase, download and play with all of the remarkable additional SampleTank 3 Instruments available. These instruments cover a wide variety of uses from the electronic dance music-centric Elektronika and Beats series to the classic guitar sounds of American Acoustic to the “stone room” drum sound of Hugh Padgham Drums and beyond — the Custom Shop has instruments that cover virtually every genre and style of playing imaginable.
SampleTank Custom Shop is part of IK’s Custom Shop series of complimentary applications that includes the AmpliTube Custom Shop guitar & bass studio and T-RackS Custom Shop mixing & mastering suite. Users who update their copies of those titles will receive 10 Custom Shop Gear Credits for use in the Custom Shop towards any Custom Shop Gear. (Limit 1-10 Credit pack per user.)
