IK Multimedia has
announced that SampleTron, the second virtual instrument to be released from
the Sonik Instruments range, is now shipping. Done in cooperation with Sonic
Reality, SampleTron is a virtual instrument workstation featuring a collection
of authentic Tron and other vintage keyboard instrument samples all in one product.
The sounds in SampleTron
include instrument sounds originally used by The Beatles, Moody Blues, Genesis,
Yes and other bands from the '60s and '70s, plus special Tron sounds that have
transcended into other styles and genres of music over the years and are
reportedly now widely used by modern artists such as Kanye West, Radiohead,
Smashing Pumpkins and Beck.
SampleTron includes a
library of 17 rare Tron instrument sounds from Mellotrons, Chamberlins and
their derivatives like the Optigan and Rhythmaster. Together with a Powered by
SampleTank engine, it offers editing features in a sample-based virtual
instrument plug-in for every popular DAW and also as a stand-alone application
for Mac and PC.
SampleTron is now
available from all worldwide IK dealers, distributors and in the IK online
store for $329.99. A crossgrade price of $269.99 is also available for all
previously registered users of any lite or full version IK product. For more
