Impact Soundworks make detailed, emotive instruments. I’ve happily bought over two dozen of their libraries which should say everything. They get used every day.

"[ISW]'s instruments consistently deliver the sound, feel, and reliability I need to do my best work. Thank you for raising the bar and making tools that inspire."

"Impact Soundworks has some of the most creative and innovative libraries out there. From world instruments to the insanely deep sampled Shreddage guitar series the Impact catalog is full of must-haves and unexpected and inspiring surprises. Highly recommended!

"I'm a keyboard player -- I can't even make a REAL guitar sound convincing. But Telos and Rosette are my go-to guitars because they sound incredible, sit well in a mix and are so easy to configure to my personal playing habits. I'm constantly discovering new ways to play them and they've saved my ass more times than I can count. And the pedal Steel is still my favorite library of its kind for Country, Folk and organic layering behind synths."

"I never would have thought that sampled guitars could sound as good as ISW's do. The fact that I can use them to lay down a realistic solo is unprecedented. They’ve pushed the boundaries of realism."
Rosette Mandolin – Sound on Sound
Rosette Mandolin review
"The sound of the library is very pleasing...the more I used the library the more I felt I was learning how to write idiomatically for the instrument." "Rosette Mandolin provides a good sound that could have many applications, with versatile input options that cater to writing realistic mandolin lines, impossible 5+ note chords and everything in between." Thomas Field, September 2024

"I'm a huge fan of the Ventus Winds series. They feature rare instruments deep-sampled to an incredibly high level of detail. It's so liberating to have such a wide range of articulations & phrases that perfectly capture the nuances and performance style of these instruments... from beautiful to haunting, celebratory to sorrowful. Each is expertly recorded and the sound quality is superb, sitting in the mix with ease. If you want to add authentic world winds to your palette, then look no further."

"ISW creates some of the most inspiring & realistic guitar sample libraries. I had to write a bunch of really gritty, angry heavy metal & sports action rock cues. I used Shreddage 3 Serpent for leads and was blown away by its onboard processing, programming, and amazing live-sounding leads. I also created a signature sound based on the lead guitar in David Lynch's Twin Peaks series, originally played on baritone guitar. [Serpent] built a convincing replica of that sound just using on-board FX. It was so fun and easy to do!"

“Between Shreddage, Super Audio Cart, Juggernaut, and Mega Brass I don’t remember the last time I haven’t used an Impact Soundworks instrument in a track. The attention to detail is astonishing and it’s all so easy to use out of the box, which is a big deal.”

“ISW creates amazing, creative, and intuitive virtual instruments! I’ve enjoyed using them for over a decade, and they have found their way into many of my music scores. Their wonderfully realistic world instruments showed up in a recent Nexon video game, Shreddage 3 Stratus on the score for Grid, and Super Audio Boy is a favorite for retro sounds, effects, and fun nostalgia. Highly recommended!”

Acoustic Revolutions: Alternative Rock Loops (in WAV, REX2, and SAGE formats) will fit smoothly and seamlessly into modern pop, alt-rock, easy listening, or soft rock productions. We’ve included some beautiful modern progressions and patterns that call to mind the sound of the Goo Goo Dolls, Dave Matthews, Vertical Horizon, and others. In sum, you’ll find that it puts at at your fingertips the expanse of alternative rock in acoustic form: everything from hard-edged and emotive to sludgy to echoes of its punk roots to the soulful epic sounds that characterize the genre. The variety of over 280 loops will inspire; the well-thought-out organization and efficient workflow will ease the way for busy producers and composers.
We’ve paid great attention to detail and made sure the loops are of the highest quality. All loops have been performed in unique, non-standard tunings, enabling rich chords and progressions that are just not possible on a single guitar otherwise. They will fit easily into any professional mix, sounding natural and virtually indistinguishable from a live player.
Loops are organized into highly comprehensive construction sets according to tempo, style and key, eliminating wasted time previewing ones that won’t fit your project. Songwriters will find they can quickly create rhythmic guitar parts for their songs. TV, film, game and ad composers will find the library useful in their underscores and keeping up with a hectic production pace.
We understand the need for high-quality, flexible loops that do not require excessive trimming or mixing, as well as the need for sounds that match modern trends. If you’re looking to add the right acoustic edge to your tracks, check this one out!
This library was designed, performed, recorded and edited by composer/producer Jimmy “Big Giant Circles” Hinson. Jimmy brings his experience as a TV composer with hundreds of cues under his belt for hit shows on networks like HGTV, WE, DIY and Animal Planet, among others. You may also know his music from a little video game called Mass Effect 2!
