As if Nucleus SoundLab's Spring Bundle wasn't a big enough deal, the amazing Viral Outbreak ReFill has been added to the 2nd tier! Viral Outbreak is one of my personal favorite sound libraries, featuring a whopping 2.5GB of samples from the legendary Virus Ti hardware synthesizer. VO is a great way for those of us that can't drop $2000 on a synth to get the sound of an expensive synthesizer right in them Reason Rack. And with the NSL Spring Bundle Sale, there's never been a better time to buy it, but think fast because there's only 3 days left!
One of the most exciting new additions to the Rack in Reason 7 is the External MIDI Instrument. In the latest Reason Micro Tutorial the Props show how to set up this new device with a DSI Mopho:
"The Reason Rack offers nearly endless sonic capabilities. But what if you just want the sound of your favorite hardware synth? Or that weird little drum machine you got half-price. In this tutorial we take a look at the External MIDI Instrument and how it can help you expand your Reason rack with your hardware."
Nucleus SoundLab has a great deal available for the next 2 weeks - The NSL Pay What You Want Spring Bundle! Similar to the killer Xmas deal last winter, there are two tiers, the first of which includes Tom Pritchard's Thorkit, NSL's Pantheon I and III, as well as Sonic Elements' Subtractor Essentials. This tier has a $9.99 and up price, which is incredible! Now tier 2 adds 4 more refills to the bundle with Pantheon II, New Atlantis Audio's Healing Hands, OB Resurrection, and Sonic Elements' Malstrom Essentials (a refill I've always wanted to check out.). The second tier starts at $49.99, but don't just bid the minimum, because there is fame and prizes for the top bidders! Nucleus SoundLab has a Leaderboard set up on the sale site which shows the top sales figures, but don't worry, if you're the bashful type you can buy anonymously. Now the fame is cool in itself, but the prizes are the best part - the second highest contributor gets a copy of Loop Life, a fantastic book by Theo from New Atlantis Audio about starting your own sound design business. This book is a great read for anyone interested in the inner workings of the sound library industry. But the #1 prize is what caught my eye - four free Rack Extensions from FXpansion! The REs are Etch Red, EnvShaper, BusComp, and ChanComp, valued at $136!
Pick up your own Spring Bundle and start making some summertime tunes!
