Debuting today is Forbidden Planet. Geared towards film, TV and game composers as well as hard-driving electronica, gothic punk, industrial and ambient composers, Forbidden Planet has the sonic quality of EASTWEST/QUANTUM LEAP SYMPHONIC ORCHESTRA and usability that will quickly make it an industry favorite. Forbidden Planet gives users the best of both the analog and digital worlds. The collection offers hundreds of programs that are based on sampled analog waves, modulators and sampled filters recorded through a Neve console and Fairchild compressors. For added variety and flexibility, Forbidden Planet offers parallel programs using the unprocessed analog waves and all of the digital filters, modulators and fx.

“The original Stormdrum was the most successful acoustic percussion library ever released,” states Quantum Leap producer Nick Phoenix. “SD2 – The Next Generation, is a completely new and improved concept that eclipses the original, and is destined to become the new standard for years to come”

Packed with over 12 GBs of percussion, SD2 – The Next Generation draws from the secret collections of three world-class percussionists, offering some of the most amazing multi-sampled percussion imaginable.
