Dream Big
Sampla is a professional Hip Hop production solution for those of you eager to make your mark on the world. Whether you're ripping from vinyl, importing loops, building your own badass drums, or simply jamming on one of over 200 included instruments, Sampla's got you covered. Like a sharp and shiny Swiss army knife glistening seductively in your production toolbox, Sampla can carve up anything you can dream of. So dream big.

Whether you're a novice or a certified tweak head, Sampla's intuitive interface and feature set puts you in control without having to leave your creative headspace. Full featured waveform editing, auto and manual slicing of samples, auto and manual keymapping, per-sample synth editing and loads more. We even give you a turbo-charged pattern generator, like an arpeggiator that lets you choose your own notes. Best of all, Sampla's powerful features are easy to find and right under your fingertips. Staying creative has never been so easy.

Go Sample the World
Rip vinyl, record your own heartbeat, import a loop, or sample the sounds of oncoming traffic; Sampla makes sampling easy. Throw some samples on a pad, flip on the assignable pattern arpeggiator and let it rip. Need more flavor? Sampa's got a perfect graphic EQ, tempo-sync delay, chorus, and a full featured synth editor including LFO's, envelopes, 10 different per-voice filters and more. Sampla gives you what you need to make your songs stand out of the pack and get heard.

These days no gear lives by itself. Working with any MPC, pad controller or MIDI keyboard is critical for your working style. Sampla interfaces perfectly with any gear in your studio. Learn Mode lets you use any keyboard or MPC to play Sampla's sounds. Map Mode lets you create custom keyboard and pad layouts. Even recording is easy. You can record from your existing audio interface or import acid, wav, broadcast wav, aiff, and even MP3 samples (including over 1000 factory samples) direct from disc.

So what are we saying here? If a tree falls in the woods and no one hears it, how do you know it fell? Because Sampla captured it, sliced it up and served it to you on a silver platter! Got it! Get Sampla and get recording man!

Factory Sound Bank
Sure, Sampla lets you record and build your own instruments and banks from scratch with your own samples, but it also comes with over 250 high end instrument presets and pad layouts. Acoustic and electronic drumkits, basses, keyboards, leads, guitars, strings, pads, vocals and more. But we didn't stop there. We also added in some righteous symphonic construction kits, scensorship bleeps and blips, and a pile of loops from the SONiVOX LoopLine series. It's a serious collection of instruments and sounds. But if you still want more, check out SONiVOX' other two products in the Hip Hop line, Playa and Aggro Electro Boom. The combination of these products is simply ridiculous.
