Quiet Music from GumRoad

[Dave Leo Baker]

I have been using the lite versions of some of their instrumets for awhile, but went and bought their Vault, which was 4 full instruments.

their site is:

If you’re not particularly into therapeudic or wellness music, Solaris would be the one you might want — think guitar samples meets your fav hipster pedals.

They do have free / lite versions of everything, but the parameters don’t read as well as they do when you use the full versions. 

Healing 2 is basically synthetic sound bowls which play pretty nicely in a lot of environments. 

Serenity is full of a variety of pads — nothing like Alchemy or Omnisphere, but they are ethereal and leave a lot of space / air. I find the sound fits nicely especially where using Bansuri or other Eastern flutes, etc.

Magicdrum is basically tongue drums but done really nicely, you just have to get used to where the notes on the drum are. They are in the configurations of the drums themselves, not placed linearly on the keyboard.

anyway if you want to extend the ambient / stoner / hipster guitar pedal aspect of what you’re doing, a lot of these can actually help quite a bit. And they’re lightweight. They do what lots of instruments do from Gumroad: No account, you buy them, save your installation files in the cloud and on a backup drive. There’s a big difference between the Lite and full versions. And especially when you buy the bundle, getting the 4 instruments.

I’ve never gotten their pianos, because with Pianoteq Studio Bundle I have no need for buying more pianos. 

Anyway they play nicely with Logic but you have to install the components yourself. 

Cheers / slán go foille,
