Virus TI Lead – sample library for Native Instruments Kontakt
Loopmasters has released Impulse Factory – Virus TI Lead, a sample library by Industrial Strength Records for Native Instruments Kontakt.
This intense 24 Bit collection of samples was created by Italian Sound designer Impulse Factory with one goal in mind. To deliver the most usable and upfront sounds all taken from his Virus Infection Patch collection.
Since not everybody owns a Virus TI, we thought audio versions of his wicked Virus Infection sound bank was a must for any producer looking to have a that Impulse Factory Virus TI sound right in your Daw.
If your looking for a fresh new set of great Lead sounds for your music productions, then look no further. Each Virus patch was re sampled note by note, and key mapped to give you a top notch sound while having complete control of each sample while using Native Instrument’s Kontakt sampler.

280 free drum samples from the Korg KPR-77 drum machine
Wave Alchemy has released Tape KPR-77, a collection of over 280 free drum samples (recorded directly to 1/4″ analogue tape) from the Korg KPR-77 drum machine.
The Kits:
- Tape Clean – Includes 127 KPR-77 drum samples which have been recorded directly to 1/4″ tape via a Studer A80 Mk1 analogue tape machine at a clean / neutral level. This kit includes 5 round robin samples per sound as well as 3 velocity layers per hit.
- Tape Saturated – Includes 127 KPR-77 drum samples which have been recorded at a hot level (providing obvious tape saturation) to 1/4″ tape via a Studer A80 Mk1 analogue tape machine. This kit includes 5 round robin samples per sound as well as 3 velocity layers per hit.
- Driven Kit – Includes 27 KPR-77 drum samples which have been recorded and processed through a variety of Wave Alchemy’s outboard studio collection.
Due to the KPR-77’s analogue nature, subtle differences in tone are heard in the sound each time a drum is triggered. This means that no two hits coming from the KPR-77 will sound exactly the same, which in turn makes the overall sound a lot less static and instead, more vibrant and real.
Tape KPR-77 contains three pre-mapped drum kit patches for use with Kontakt 2, 3, & 4 and Battery 3. Each kit makes use of extensive velocity layering, round robin sample playback and choke groups which in turn capture the quirkiness and expressiveness of the original unit.
Wave Alchemy notes:
The KPR-77 was originally manufactured by Korg in the early 1980’s and was advertised as a cheaper alternative to Roland’s successful TR-606 drum machine. Surprisingly this quirky little analogue machine is capable of producing quite powerful drum sounds, we are especially fond of the toms, snares and claps!
Note: Registration at the Wave Alchemy site is required to download the free drum sample library.

Duo Steel Tongue – Sample Library for Kontakt
Here’s what they have to say about it:
Over the last decade a number of adventurous instrument makers have used steel pans, propane tanks and custom alloy “shells” to create a new breed of melodic percussion: steel tongue drums.
Borrowing design concepts from traditional wood models, steel versions feature “tongues” of varying lengths cut into the top of the drum in a circular pattern. The drum is placed in the percussionist’s lap and is struck with fingertips for a soft sound, finger pads for a slapped sound, and thumbs for a harder tonal “knock”. Overtones of adjacent tongues ring sympathetically with the note that is being struck to create complexity of sound.
As part of Nine Volt Audio’s Duo line of products, we’ve recorded TWO steel tongue drums. The larger 1Tone is a nine-note model that originates from Israel and is tuned to the “Hitzaz” scale (sometimes written as “Hijaz”) in the key of D. It has a resonant and “ringy” quality that creates a beautiful droning background to performances. In addition to finger articulations, this drum has also been recorded with brushes.
The Garrahand is a small yet tunable model from Argentina. Despite it having only seven tongues, each was individually tuned through the sampling process to make the drum playable in a chromatic fashion. This drum has a buoyant and mellow sound with fewer overtones than the 1Tone.
With over 3100 samples and patches that are both natural and modern, Duo puts the evocative and expressive sound of steel tongue drums at your fingertips.
We encourage you to support the instrument makers and check out the acoustic versions of these instruments at www.garrahand.com & www.1tonedrums.com
