The SampleTank 4 from IK Multimedia has been redesigned from the ground up to be every musician’s “go to” workstation for music creation, with a re-scalable interface, a massively expanded sample library and a cutting-edge sound engine with efficient disk streaming to deliver more powerful music creation tools than you ever imagined. What might usually take dozens of plug-ins can be accomplished right inside SampleTank 4, for lightning-fast workflow that keeps your inspiration going. Find any type of sound fast and tailor them to your needs with the deep, powerful editing options and a modulation matrix. Dynamic “groove players” – an arpeggiator, a strummer, and a pattern and loop player – turn your sounds into songs faster than ever. Plus a live mode makes SampleTank 4 the ideal performance partner, with the ability to create entire set lists and easily map every parameter just how you need it.
