Greetings. :) For those of you that do not know me very well, and have only seen me around here and there, my name is Jeff Hayat. I am a composer who has worked on a few small films, and, like most if not all of the rest of you, use many different sample libraries to compose and create music.

Today, I am very pleased to announce the launch of Universal Sampling. The goal is to offer high quality, detailed, new and exciting products to the world of sample libraries and virtual instruments - products which are useable, playable, and which simply sound great! The goal is not to develop libraries that will replace anything else on the market per ce, but to make offerings that will either compliment other libraries, or fill existing holes in the market.

The initial product release is a Windchime library. Here is a description:

Uniquely and deeply sampled - this library features a total of 10 windchimes, varying in size, pitch, range, and of course, sound. Ten windchimes in total, including temple bells and bar chimes, make up this sample library, which is prefect for a wide variety of sounds and emotions. Go from a soothing, dreamy atmosphere, to a shrill and haunting landscape. A wide array of velocities and lengths mean a great deal of flexability. Use single samples on their own, or combine several samples to customize the sound to fit your needs.

Also included are individual bells - 14 in total. Each bell has it's own pitch and it's own sound. All bells have three velocity layers, and are round robin x6.

Digitally recorded in stereo with top-notch mics and mic pre for superior sonic quality, this library is available in both 48khz, and 44.1khz formats. Both are 24 bit. The recordings are close and dry, leaving the option to keep the samples dry, or add one's reverb of choice.

Awsome Riff! Good luck to you. Wind chimes seems to be a glaring hole in sample libraries. I will check it out.
