We really enjoyed exploring the variety of basses. The quality of the bases, keys, horns, strings and ethnic instruments just makes you want to keep exploring. This was a great way to create something interesting quickly, especially with more exotic/ethnic/world sounds for example.ĭiscovering the Billy Cobham and the Neil Pert drums was an F-yeah moment, especially when assigned across multiple channels. We generally prefer to play and create riffs live but ST4 has some incredibly useful loops and phrases that are ready to be sequenced into a track.
Other times, we'd start with more exotic instruments and create some phrases to get started. Sometimes we'd start with drums and bass, build a foundation and lay some instruments over the top. There are so many ways to get inspired with ST4 Max.
We used SampleTank 4 Max by itself and with other VSTs but for our review we focused on making compositions where ST4 Max was the only instrument source. This is simply a beautiful product that will give you an endless sonic palette. The more we tried to do the more SampleTank responded. We simply wanted to know if SampleTank 4 would inspire us to make music and how easy it would be to drop into our creative flow. Reviewing SampleTank 4 Max was like a serendipitous journey of discovery versus a methodical approach of dissecting features. And from a single window, you’ll be able to adjust anything from volume to routing.SampleTank 4 Max is packed with instruments and effects wrapped in a workflow that is simple to understand and inspiring at every turn. Derived from IK’s AmpliTube and T-RackS software, the sounds include everything from tube saturation to old-school analogue pedals to professional studio processors.Įlsewhere, the SampleTank 4 has a new Mix window that lets you tinker with the parameters of all 16 tracks simultaneously. SampleTanks 4 adds 13 new effects, bringing the total up to 70.
