Notes: The definitive IDM, industrial and electronica workstation

"If you´re into or are ever called upon to produce Intelligent Dance Music, Industrial, or Electronica, this library has it nailed...It´s easy to build very complicated, interesting, and constantly changing [music]." - Virtual Instruments Magazine (US)

"If you are pushing the envelope in the Modern rock, techno, dance or industrial genres, OTTO will be a powerful addition to your arsenal...I really enjoyed working with OTTO. It offered a lot of sonic madness without tedious sample mangling or off-line processing." - Recording Magazine (US)

"Otto is a welcome tool for the sheer inspirational speed, ease and flexibility with which it can knock out a killer IDM or techno loop and for its contemporary sounding individual-hit material." - Remix Magazine (US)

OTTO is the ultimate tool for discriminating producers and composers. Designed by Otto Von Schirach, the library offers over 4 GB of instruments that includes construction, loops, sequences, surround and much more.

Part of the beauty of OTTO is that every sound represented in a loop or sequence instrument, is also found individually as a hit, thus the user has maximum creative flexibility. The loops and sequences range from simple to busy, catering both to music makers who require maximum efficiency, as well as to composers who want to create their own loops and sequences from the ground up.

A special version of Native Instruments’ Kontakt 2 is included with OTTO, providing over 600 instruments mapped out in the Kontakt 2 player.

Instrument categories

Construction : Individual hit instruments.

Sequence : See how Otto uses the script editor in Kontakt 2 to create sequences with a very drum machine feel. (User can alter these sequences.)

Kontakt 2 loops : Instruments that are made up of many bounced sequences, so you can go between drum machine-like loops quickly without loading up several different instruments.

Platinum loops : These instruments are made up of loops that have been created in an outside sequencer and span many different electro styles.

Performance : Play these instruments live! Loops are mapped on the left, with construction hits on the right. Quantize option included!

Random and Experimental : Geek out with these instruments.

Melodic : These instruments can be played like a keyboard, as all the sounds are mapped chromatically.

Cinematic and Sound Effects : Ambient and spectral instruments. Get your spooky on!

Surround : Instruments created in a 5.1 format.

Notes: Predator is a phat sounding killer synthesizer that combines inspiring presets and first-class features to make this your go-to synth for contemporary music production.

Notes: The Rob Papen Punch combines sampled and synthesized drums in a high quality percussive instrument

With Punch, Rob Papen delivers a brand new speaker busting, body rattling software instrument and synthesized drums in the finest audio quality, with breathtaking features for the contemporary producer.

You can use synthesis to build your own unique sounding drum kit, but also your own samples can be loaded into Punch to complete your kit. Your sounds can then be crafted using the stunning features, filters and huge synth power we all know from other RP synthesizers.

Punch has a unique sound but also a built in sequencer, allowing you the user to have multiple patterns at your finger tips. These grooves can be triggered in a live environment to build a song, but are also great for just improvisation and jamming. Also featured are drum kits built by famous DJ's which complete the arsenal of power that is Punch.

Notes: You've spent hours on your trackiworking and reworking every part to bring your musical vision to life. You know that the quality of your reverb can be the difference between the rich sounding mix you're after and one that comes off as flat and artificial.

When it comes to pristine, authentic reverb, it's the algorithm that counts. The RP-Verb is the fruit of Rob Papen's decades-long study of reverb and endless hours of exploring, testing, and tweaking by Rob and Jon Ayres. The result is exactly what you would expect: a stunning, musical reverb that brings unmatched dimension and fullness to your mixes.

But if you're thinking that this sound quality must come at the cost of usability, fear notiRP-Verb has a straightforward, intuitive interface that puts all the most essential parameters right at your fingertips. Like all Rob Papen plug-ins, it inspires right out of the box with spot-on presets that range from intimate venues to abstract, surreal spaces.

The RP-Verb is the reverb you've waited years to have in your setup. Try it out for yourself and see why pros describe it with one word: amazing.

Notes: The SubBoomBass is filled with excessive amounts of low end ammunition to detonate your tracks. With presets designed by the legendary Rob Papen and other guest artists, this dedicated bass synth will supply you with huge cone-rattling sounds that will devastate any dancefloor. This software instrument is great for hip-hop and RnB but can also be used for dubstep, drum and bass, garage, grime and much more.

Based on the award winning Predator engine, the SubBoomBass has been carefully crafted to provide you with the tools to create fresh new bass lines for any musical style. Rob Papen again displays his cutting edge and innovative style by combining sounding synth engine with tuned drum percussion samples and rare samples. These patches are great for fresh and completely new bass textures for Hip Hop and RnB basses but also for any producer that is on the cutting edge of modern music.

Other features include a groove sequencer and two effects slots which can be modulated. The SubBoomBass also features a great easy edit page and the unique quick browser system that will allow you to find the sounds you need quickly and easily.

Notes: The VSL Instruments Solo Strings II features muted Violin, Viola, Cello and Double Bass. This Vienna instruments collection is the sequel to Solo Strings I, offering all-new and sonic subtleties.

The Solo Strings II contains many of the playing techniques that the first collection includes, but played con sordino or with mutes. Playing with mutes dampens the transmission of energy from the strings to the body of the instrument and softens or darkens the sound. Muted string instruments lend themselves well to soft, intimate arrangements and solo parts and provide nuanced variations to any kind of musical style with their different structure of overtones and harmonics. Only wooden mutes crafted by a special instrument maker have been used in order to fit perfectly to the bridge of each instrument. The Solo Strings II collection contains articulations such as muted short and long notes, crescendo and diminuendo variations, as well as interval performances like legato, portamento and trills.

Furthermore, additional performance legatos with very long notes have been recorded for use in slower parts. Thus, every single pitch and velocity is available in 24 variations and going the extra mile proved worthwhile.
The 4 soloists Christian Eisenberger, Katharina Traunfellner, Ruben Dubrovski and Martin Deuring have invested their life's work and hard-won experience, both from their international concert performances as well as from several years of working for the Vienna Symphonic Library, into this collection. Sensitive and clear, exact and homogeneous their performances at the Silent Stage are technically perfect and come alive again in this Vienna Instrument.

The Solo Strings full library contains 46.5 GB of uncompressed sample data in 44.1 kHz/24bit. Due to an innovative optimization process, the Vienna Instruments engine decompresses the samples in real-time, so that they take up only 31 GB of space on your hard disk. Please note: Even if you licensed the Standard Library only, the full library of your collection gets installed on your hard drive since Standard and Extended Library can't be separated due to structural database requirements. Each library comes with the software instrument, standard library and extended library on DVD. You get each collection with its Standard Library and the software-instrument (i.e., the engine with its user interface). You can also test the included extended library for a period of 30 days.
