SampleTank 3 continues this legacy with a significant amount of new features. There are no download issues to report, although you need to have (or download) Sample Tank 4 Custom Shop first.A large part of SampleTank's long-standing popularity has been its suite of built-in effects, a feature that owes a lot to IK Multimedia’s reputation for top-quality audio effects. And, if you had to make a convincing Synthwave track using only this collection, you absolutely could. It’s not a deep dive into sound design it’s a quick and easy library that could either help you start or finish a track. Overall, if I paid $49.99 for Hitmaker: Synthwave, I’d have few complaints, so grabbing it for free is a no-brainer. I just picked out the sounds I felt were most authentic and better suited to creating something unique. Some of the arpeggios are great for adding texture, and I’m sure the rest may be of more use to others than they are to me. Looking at the categories that I didn’t praise, I wouldn’t say all is lost. Between the four sound categories that I highlighted, you have the foundations of some awesome Synthwave tracks. There are also 10 synth pad presets, and a couple of them are really nice with some creative modulation. The sound quality is great, plus each kit has some MIDI grooves triggered by set keys. There are 10 Synthwave drum kits, and I wouldn’t hesitate to use them for this style. The remaining categories are made up of arpeggios, chromatic, drums, and sound FX.įor me, the drums, pads, basses, and sweeps are the best of the bunch. Not as expected were the guitar, organ, brass, and woodwind categories. It has the expected synth bass, lead, and pad sounds, along with some synth sweeps and plucks. Although, most categories contain only a few instruments/presets. On opening Synthwave, I was surprised to see that it offered 13 sound categories, considering I’ve paid more for less in the past. Hitmaker: Synthwave is a collection of retro instruments, samples, and beats. But it’s literally five questions about your synths and no typing. All too often, offers that include a short survey leave me thinking, just take my money, and let’s end this.
