Vir2 recently released the Q 1.1 Patch update, which includes minor enhancements to existing patches such as refined FX settings and pitch corrected samples. The FX settings in almost every patch of the factory library had minor changes made to make them sound more “production ready” upon loading without further adjustments being necessary. Some of the layer samples in the Multilayer Dreamscapes and Multilayer Drones patches were not playing back at the correct pitch; those have now been corrected. The update not only includes minor enhancements to the factory library patches, but also more than 50 new patches by Violence creator, Brendan Hogan.
Click HERE to download the update.
To install this update, locate the existing “Instruments” folder inside your Q folder. Move that folder outside of the Q folder to any location of your choosing. Next, move the new instruments folder into your Q folder. Once you have a patch loaded, you may choose to keep or delete the old instruments folder.
Note: This update requires version 4.2.2 or later of the Free Kontakt Player or full retail version of Kontakt.

Big Fish Audio’s top loop products for the month of June saw Pure Rock Hits climb to the top position with Americana Country closely behind. New titles in the top 10 included Lost Tapes Vol. 1, a collection of loops and kits recorded to tape using mics, instruments and equipment from 60s/70s. Also making a top 10 debut was Indie Rock Addiction, 14 undeniably catchy construction kits in the styles of Death Cab for Cutie, Snow Patrol, Panic at the Disco and more.
Still dominating the instruments top sellers in May was Sonokinetic’s Tutti. and RiG: Urban Workstation, along with top 10 newcomer Ircam Solo Instruments from UVI’s collection.

Producer Loops released a host of high quality new products this week. Of those, Essential Producer Series Vol. 3 stands out to me just because I love electronica. This is definitely worth a listen if you share the same likes as me.
Big Fish Audio gets three huge, heavy hitting libraries this weekend. Pop Rocks, Big Bad Horns and Epic Drums II. That’s right, EPIC DRUMS II. Everyone’s been waiting for it and it’s finally here. =) Not to be outdone, Pop Rocks and Big Bad Horns are two amazing new libraries from the Xtended Series. Many of you have been asking for more Big Band style libraries and we have delivered. This library is going to be a must buy for those drooling in anticipation for more.
