Soundware round-up
Goldbaby
SP1200 Collection $39
After the MPC60 Collection (10/10,cm 256), the veteran New Zealand samplesmith’s latest combines the previous SP1200 Vol 1 and 2 in a single comprehensive library, much of it remastered from the original files. A huge array of drums, basses, synths, vox and more from the eponymous legendary 12-bit sampler (and its SP12 sibling) have been captured through boutique and classic outboard, yielding more than 4000 one-shots, for use as is or within 39 kits and 17 instrument patches for Live, Maschine, Kontakt, Battery, Geist and EXS24. The sounds are so phat it hurts.
