SampleTank: The Ultimate Sample Workstation

The widest variety of sounds in all instrument categories
You're one click away from tons of Acoustic Grand Pianos, Electric Pianos, Strings, Brass, Winds, Vocals, Orchestral sounds, Organs, Percussion, Drums, Basses, Guitars, Synths, Loops, Ethnic samples and more.

This way you can work much faster and more creatively by having access to thousands of high-quality sounds from a single interface. If this is not enough, you can also import your own WAV, AIFF, AKAI, SDII and Samplecell files for a truly unlimited world of sounds.

Unique sound manipulation with multi-samples and loops
SampleTank is the only sample workstation that sports 3 different types of sample engines: traditional resampling, Stretch(tm), and PS/TS (pitch-shift/time-stretch). The unique Stretch engine will deliver… read more amazing realism and expression over multi-sampled instruments. Your performances will come to life with true glide, bending, full control over staccato and vibrato -- with an incredibly rich, vibrant, and natural sound quality (no more "chipmunk" effect). When working with loops, the PS/TS engine will allow you to synchronize loops with one click, or control its tempo and pitch independently for the ultimate beat machine.

The most powerful multi-effects built in a virtual instrument
Every sound in SampleTank is programmed with fully editable built-in effects, so drums load up with reverb and compression, guitars with amp-simulation, electric organs with rotary speaker and so on. With 5 insert effects per parts and the new 5 send and 5 master effects you can have up to 90 effects available in this production powerhouse. These effects can be selected within the 33 high-quality effects of SampleTank that offer also algorithms from IK's award winning T-RackS, Classik Studio Reverb and AmpliTube! The top quality IK modeling effects are immediately available to you, just by loading the SampleTank sounds.

So easy to use, you do not need to read the manual
With SampleTank, you're up and going within seconds. More than 50 sampler controls are accessible from an easy-to-use and highly accessible single interface. That's why you can spend more time focusing on your music instead of studying complex manuals written for engineers and not musicians. That's also why you'll find yourself loading up SampleTank as your "go-to" instrument every time you want to let your creativity flow.

Efficient and fast-loading
SampleTank is so efficient that it can be easily installed and can run from even a modestly priced laptop. Sounds can load up so fast that its performance is comparable hardware synths and samplers. That is why more and more musicians use SampleTank for live performances. Try to do this with other complicated and heavy-load sample-based virtual instruments, and you can immediately see the difference!

Miroslav Philharmonik: Serious String Samples and More

Includes the legendary Miroslav Vitous orchestra and choir
Miroslav orchestral samples are some of the most playable and inspiring sounds ever produced for symphonic arrangements and composition. They've marked the atmosphere of hundreds of movies and productions and have become the tool of choice for many Oscar-winning composers.

Some of the most beautiful, lush orchestral samples ever recorded
Never before has so much feeling and emotion been captured in orchestral sampling. Miroslav was able to bring out the rich character of symphonic music with a special sound that is unique and powerfully expressive.

True acoustic placement within the Dvorak Symphony Hall
For incredible acoustic realism, the string, brass and woodwind sections have been captured in the proper acoustic orchestral positions in one of the most famous symphony halls in the world, the Dvorak Symphony Hall in Prague.

These sounds have a texture, warmth, and beauty that is unique in the sample world.
