Super Audio Cart 2 – Max Lombardo
“SAC2 is fantastic! I had a chance to use it on some arrangements and cues for the new Super Mario Galaxy movie, and it’s just perfect. I was able to get that 8-bit retro sound straight out of the box, the intuitive GUI and thorough presets made it incredibly easy to get it exactly where I wanted it to be, sound-wise. A life saver, especially on projects with tight deadlines and lots of moving pieces.”
Shreddage series – Josh Mobley
Shreddage changed my life. I was working on a hybrid metal trailer album for what would later be BMG production music. I’m a keyboard player, and I had never had a realistic playable metal guitar plugin because they just didn’t exist.
It… blew my mind man. Suddenly, I could play all of these riffs I had in my head. I completed the album and it did really well. I heard it in everything. Movie trailers, tv shows etc. [Shreddage] was the backbone of virtually every song on that album.

Fredonia Grand Organ – ShadyCicada
“Fredonia Grand Organ sounds absolutely gigantic, and it’s been a perfect outlet for me to convey more intense emotions in my tracks (especially villain and boss battle themes)!”
Django Gypsy Jazz Guitar – The Dojo
“This is probably the best acoustic guitar VST I’ve ever found, for Kontakt libraries, the best one in my opinion, because you can make it sound extremely real.”

The Stroh Violin – Soul Muzic Productions
“It sounds really good for what it does, but it’s limited….but again, you’re not really getting this plug-in for something to be versatile; this is just to get an interesting sound….definitely check this out; this thing is really cool.”

Mega Brass – The Samplecast
“I found the sound was huge, especially when you start adding additional octaves which are easy to dial-in within the interface itself. Also, I enjoyed using the central hype knob to punish the sound and make it even fatter and more aggressive. The core brass and synth sounds are good, and I can imagine myself using this for hard-hitting trailer pieces.”

Hammer Klavier – Synthsonic
“Although it has a unique sound, it seems to be familiar with various songs, so it seems to be highly versatile. The hardness of the real hammers fits in well with EDM-style music; however, because of the crisp acoustic sound, it can be used for any style effectively. It’s perfect for when you want a piano sound that’s a bit different. A gem that seems to reach out when you want a piano but want to choose something a little different.”

Hammer Klavier – Simeon Amburgey
“It is like the boldness and creativity of the sample developers, they’re just going all in and taking us into some very uncharted territory, and unheard territory […] see, it’s just very beautiful, but it can get really crazy too.”

Pedal Steel – HIFIMIDI
“In my opinion, this is truly a wonderful instrument. The Pedal Steel has a very mystical and Eastern-quality because of its nasal timbre, and ability to produce microtones. It’s a complex instrument, and I think considering how difficult it would be to script it, with all it’s nuances and rules, Impact SoundWorks did an incredible job bringing it to life. This is a must-buy product.”

Celestia: Heavenly Sound Design – Sounds and Gear
“Look, if you dig ambient sounds and love atmospheres, pads, and things on the the softer side of the audio spectrum like myself, then you owe it to yourself to consider checking this out. Anyone that’s been around here for any amount of time know’s I’m a sucker for ambient pads and atmospheric instruments, so this is a library I’ve been wanting to show you for a while. I’m glad I finally got some time to showcase it because I think it’s very well done and will please anyone into ambient, electronica, new age, chillout, or even pop and rnb production.” (4.5/5)
JK Swopes (Sounds and Gear)
Allura, Volume 1 – Sample Library Review
“Very simple, straight ahead, but I really like the sound design of all of these pads that are included. I think [the] phrases are really the king of the king for the library.”
Sample Library Review (05/2018)
Juggernaut – Sample Library Review
“I have to say, this library contains some really great, bombastic hybrid sounds; the kind of stuff you would expect from trailer tracks… It remains a very fresh, very stylized collection of dark, cinematic effects.”
Sample Library Review (03/2017)
Fredonia Grand Organ – Synthsonic
“Fredonia Grand Organ is capable of producing a wide range of pipe organ sounds, from the magnificent scale of cinematic sounds to the soft and warm sounds used in churches. And even though the sound is massive and organic, it’s capable of a considerable breadth of musical styles… With so many possibilities, the capabilities of this virtual instrument are truly vast. It’s not just a “pipe-organ-like” sound. This library is truly a genuine, authentic pipe organ.”
