Anomaly SFZ Universal Sample Library. A totally unique collection created by sound designer Daniel Kemp. Volume 1, Percussive Ambiances, features drummer Johann Rucker, transforming his drum performances into rhythmically pulsating and timbrally moving soundscapes. Volume 2, Drones, is the product of radically processing and resampling sounds from the Dangerous Bear sample pool. Volume 3 features pads, generated from the same processes as the Volume 2 Drones, but multisampled. Volume 4 continues the journey into new sonic worlds. Volume 5 adds the dimension of the human voice with a set of wav files and sf2 instruments of whispers and chants.

About SFZ Universal:

SFZ Universal is a new way of organizing our soundware to serve many instruments with a single sample library. Instead of creating format-specific products for the various instruments we support, we have chosen to take advantage of the growing support for the sfz format in the VST world and release libraries using that format as native at the sample level while including presets for the diverse instruments that load it. These include Alchemy, Dimension, Kontakt, Rapture and WusikEngine instruments version 5.6.2 or higher, including our own Prometheus and Anomaly VSTs. Plus, via the wav files, we will also be able to continue and expand support for Absynth and Battery.

What this means for us is greater efficiencies in the creative process and in inventory administration. What it means for you is better, more useful soundware.
