“I’ve always been a beats man and this percussion hits big and hard. The effects side of it, specifically the distortion is very special – it’s the cinematic width and sound that makes it very different to anything else out there.”

“I’ve always liked Heavyocity’s approach to instrument design, focusing on the actual needs of composers/producers. FORZO builds on this tradition, with a new level of sound quality and vastly increased production adaptability. Hits the spot for me!”

“With so many great brass libraries on the market it’s hard to stand out, but leave it to Heavyocity to do just that. The traditional section is top notch, but it’s when you get into the extended and evolved areas that FORZO really makes its mark. From the random flutters and the cluster swells to the ambient pads, there is inspiration around every corner. Don’t miss out on this library.”

“Scoring Guitars is an inspiring tool that puts a variety of tastefully processed and programmed guitar performances within close reach. With all of Gravity’s sound-sculpting features, it is a powerful and adaptable instrument that is great for creating organic cinematic layers.”

“Really powerful as well as clean. What I also like is that it doesn’t sound “digital” like many other plugins. I was astonished by the ease of use and amount of possibilities. Haven’t seen anything like this in a while!”

“With other sample libraries, I have to spend too much of my time tweaking them to get them to sound acceptable. Evolve Mutations sounds incredible right away, which allows me to spend more time composing, and less time trying to fix mediocre sounds.”

“PUNISH is a great combo of glue, punch, and character. You can really dial in the desired intensity, it’s incredibly well-conceived and the PUNISH Knob is genius.”

“I really love the multi-sampled organic patches – truly original sounds that inspire new ideas with a few notes. Seriously, though…you guys are making it WAY TOO EASY to sound like a synth programming maestro. Aeon is so tweakable and easy to make your own. And man, what a sound! I’ve never heard synths that sit so well in my mixes without touching a thing – full and fat without taking up too much space. I hate that it’s getting released to the public…can’t we keep this one between us?”

“Evolve captures the top qualities I look for in a library: cinematic gravitas. In a market flooded with anaemic sample libraries, Evolve steps up to the plate with killer content and a sonic aesthetic that is simply inspired.”

“ASCEND is an incredible instrument piled with creative options. There’s so much demand to be creative and exploratory nowadays that you need tools that go beyond what an instrument and a performer do. You need to be able to be flexible with the production of what you write to better enhance and care for the sonic story you’re telling. ASCEND will let you capture a performance and then add chaos, or darkness, or a shine or even a quality of recording or lack thereof. It allows you to enhance your ideas, while not slowing down the process of an initial performance. The FX sound great, the arp is easy to use for quick results and the ECHOES feature is inspirational. A wonderful addition to the Heavyocity lineup!”

“Aeon is yet another fine example of the sonic brilliance we’ve come to expect from the guys at Heavyocity. The instantly usable sounds, mixed with the customizable intuitive controls make these sounds a dream to work with.”

“Synthetic Strings is a new and unique outlook on the software synth. As someone who heavily lives in electronic scoring, Synthetic Strings is a great tool for those who may not have the time to experiment with analogue synths. The Loop Designer is also a great way to spark inspiration in a pinch, the possibilities are endless!”

“FORZO: Modern Brass is the new overlord of all brass libraries. It’s extremely playable and the interface is slick and effortless with plenty of control. There are many libraries out there striving for orchestral realism, but Heavyocity has gone above and beyond and delivered much more than that. The additional “mangling” options are my favorite and never fail to spark inspiration.”

“The Heavyocity team has done it again with Vento. What an incredible inspiration this new library is for starting a project or ending a project. It provides a source of inspiration in the creative production of the winds, while also providing an imaginative color and flavor which we’ve found to be infinitely useful. Composition encapsulates writing, performing, producing and recording. Vento really allows you to uniquely explore all four of those avenues in the way it’s been done and it does it in a very user friendly way.”

“As a remixer, I’m always looking for new sounds that bring fresh attitude to a track. Evolve Mutations 2 has the most inspiring collection of sonics under one instrument, that I’ve heard in years! When it comes to edgy glitchy, industrial beats, nothing comes close. If I’m looking to elevate the atmospherics and deepen the production, Evolve Mutations 2 is the first place I go.”

“Mosaic Voices brilliantly combines hybrid, expansive vocal textures with subtle, organic voice elements. Driven by the powerful Mosaic Engine, its creative capacity knows no limits. I find it to be a refreshingly versatile tool for crafting cinematic music.”

“Fresh sounding and malleable, ASCEND: Modern Grand is perfect for creating evocative organic piano textures. ASCEND is packed with wildly creative articulations that come together seamlessly with Heavyocity’s powerful new engine, creating utility far beyond that of the superb piano this instrument is built atop.”

“A very fast and very tweakable one-stop black box to make your tracks bump, grind, pop, scream, or shout”

“ASCEND is a beautifully-sampled grand piano. Straight out of the box, the Core Concert D fits perfectly within a myriad of different mixes. Heavyocity treats this piano no different than any other library they’ve created. As beautiful as the original piano does sound, and this library could stand on its own with just being a sampled grand, the bulk of the library gets Heavyocity’s signature treatment. The palette of sounds, whether pads, ARPs or rhythms, is immensely inspiring to say the least. They’ve done some pretty innovative stuff with ASCEND, taking full use of Kontakt’s abilities. There’s a lot going on under the hood. I was off and running on three different pieces just from hearing and being inspired by these sounds. ASCEND definitely gets the creative juices flowing and I am glad it’s part of my arsenal.”

“…The EVOLVE plug is amazing.”

“DM-307 took me by surprise. I wasn’t sure what to expect but after experiencing what this library has to offer it has found a unique home in my studio. I’ve always lamented the shortage of good percussive libraries that sound great and feel great. Between DM-307, Damage, and Aeon, Heavyocity has brought composers’ libraries that elevate our work and inspire creativity.”

“Mosaic Keys is an incredibly inspiring and intuitive tool. With such an expansive range of textures and colors, it will no doubt find its way into many of my future projects. Its sound sources are uniquely compelling, and its ability to layer these sounds with dynamic parameter control makes it truly unlimited in its creative scope.”

“With ASCEND- Heavyocity has taken the sound and spirit of the piano to another level. From traditional to otherworldly- this instrument is inspiring and original…I was immediately drawn into its sonic magic and found myself hitting the record button to capture my performances!”

“Synthetic Strings is yet another ‘add-on’ pack to Heavyocity’s NOVO that is loaded with an abundance of material. Many presets harken back to the synths of the 70s & 80s, which can easily find their way into many modern productions. Once again the treat in this Pack is the Designer Patches. How they manipulate these synths in the ‘Designer Patches’ is beyond me, but I can always count on Heavyocity to spark the fires of creativity.”

“ASCEND starts with a great collection of prepared piano samples but that’s only the beginning. It goes deep into uncharted territory with the automatable Three Point Mixer, a great pitch-shifting and pitch-quantizing delay, and a really amazing set of convolution impulses. From dark emotional pianos to hypnotic patterns and all the way to subtle atmospheres and evil dronescapes, ASCEND will go there. Highly recommended!”

“GRAVITY in not just a huge collection of hits, FX, pads, drones, and stings, it is an extremely musical, playable instrument. Once I realized how much I could tweak the sounds to exactly what I was looking for I got a glimpse of the endless possibilities of this essential tool. GRAVITY is Heavy!”

“I am using Mutations for a new remix… I am totally loving it. Right up my alley.”

“Ethnic Drum Ensembles is the library I was always longing for when I wanted “that” huge ethnic sound! As soon as I heard this newest release by the Heavyocity guys I knew they nailed it again as they did with all their previously released products!”

“With VENTO I finally have a family of woodwinds that fit the dark and scary moods in my scores. There’s a lot to love in VENTO; besides the beautifully done section recordings of “ordinary” articulations, there’s a ton of haunting, delicate, and terrifying textures and effects. Going deeper into the processed and rhythmic samples served up in the excellent NOVO engine, VENTO provides a thoroughly modern take on traditional woodwinds, and is at the top of my list… and template. I Love it!”

“Wow, GRAVITY is way beyond everything else I had in my fingers when it comes to dark and sinister sound design, and it’s even beyond that. Actually, it’s the world’s nemesis in a playable instrument and you can control every parameter of doomsday.”

“What you guys delivered is completely different… Nothing sounds like this. The sounds seem perfect for anything from a really intelligent dance remix to the score for ‘Battlestar Galactica’ or a billion other movies… Just awesome inspiring kick-ass sounds!!”

“Instantly inspiring, this is yet another Heavyocity instrument that checks the ‘I always wanted this’ box for me! Zero learning curve, maximum adaptability – goes straight into my main template!”

“As with all Heavyocity lines, Mosaic Voices is another great addition to my growing toolkit. The ability to isolate various parts of each sample opens up a world of possibilities.”

“Within seconds of installing DAMAGE it became an essential part of my studio. It’s unique tempo-synced loops and dynamic multi-sampled percussive instruments immediately inspired creation. DAMAGE feels neither old or new- it feels just right, like it has always belonged in my studio toolkit.”

“It rages, rips and roars in to pole position on my sound template. Awesome recordings put to intelligent use in an easy-to-use box. Once again, keeping the heavy in to Heavyocity! Nice one.”

“I’m loving the DM-307, it’s got that signature Heavyocity attitude, rock solid timing and an incredible variety of ultra-tweakable sounds. The GUI is among the best I’ve ever used in a Kontakt instrument. It’s is an amazing drum tool that has instantly jumped to the top of my go-to list.”

“Great stuff! A very nice addition to the previous library (Evolve). Thumbs Up.”

“Being a guitar player myself, I tend to shy away from any kind of virtual guitar instruments. But Heavyocity has taken guitars to a whole new level with Scoring Guitars 2. I love the clean tone of the instrument and having so many choices to distort, mangle and overall punish the original sound. The forward and reverse options are also inspiring and huge timesavers.”

“Mosaic Voices is packed with endless combinations of inspiring sounds and underlying movement. I find it to be a great springboard for ideas, whether it be the foundations of a cue or a song. The GUI, which is definitely a descendant of their previous releases, is easy to maneuver and makes customizing each of the three channel’s sounds super easy and fun.”

“Phenomenal sounds and instant accessibility are the two hallmarks of any Heavyocity product. As if they couldn’t top themselves…gotta say this is the most epic and tweak-able Heavyocity release yet. It’s already made its way into two of my current projects. GRAVITY is an epic twist on creative sound sources and rafter-shaking drama.”

“Partnering with Heavyocity to produce Rhythmic Textures made me feel like a kid in a musical candy store. I normally shy away from loop-based orchestral samples but I believe composers will find these instruments both inspirational and extremely versatile. I’m quite proud to be part of such a unique product.”

“This library is a beast! It opens up a whole new playground for keeping the “sound of the sound” alive and responsive—and, above all, inspiring. Like its predecessors, it makes me want to hang out in my studio for days on end and just explore. The Trigger FX function adds a whole new dimension, making it seriously addictive to explore even deeper, effectively banishing the “been there, heard that” personality of so many other libraries. With Mutations 2 Heavyocity have ‘upped the game’… again.”

“Heavyocity has released yet another indispensable addition to the Gravity line. From the slick pulses and phrases to the evocative beds and drones, there’s some really fresh and inspirational sounds begging to be added to your palette.”

“From ethereal, otherworldly vocals to organic, weighty pads, Mosaic Voices is chalked full of accessible, emotional sounds. Mosaic Voices has all the tools for creating tasteful and adaptable layers that convincingly meld the synthetic with the organic.”

“The sound of the DM-307 is awesome! You don´t need to add tons of plugins to get it to sound good. The sounds are ready to use in your productions.”

“If you’re working in trailers, or really any form of hybrid scoring, you need FORZO in your arsenal. It’s heavy, versatile, and completely unique! I feel like I’ve only scratched the surface.”

“NOVO is an instant classic. I swear we will be hearing it everywhere in the coming months, and that’s because it’s so darn good and inspiring. As soon as you press a note you get a vibe going, but then you can delve in, assign parameters to faders, and really start sculpting these patches to the way you like them. A premium library from the Heavyocity guys”

“DM-307 has a great deeply customizable interface to create the rhythm, energy and motion I need for my scores. I look forward to digging in to yet another sonic feat from Heavyocity.”

“Ethnic Drum Ensembles is one of those fantastic libraries where you load up a patch and you have something awesome at your fingertips immediately. But then you can get into the deep layers of effects and processing and really make every patch your own. Likewise the loops have that Heavyocity cool thing going on, but there is plenty of room for manipulation. Another incredibly useful tool from the Heavyocity boys.”

“Just like with Evolve, Heavyocity delivers once again with their newest Mutations. It’s incredibly wicked and a must for any serious composer!!”

“I have tools that are subtle and tools that slam. PUNISH is a great way for me to slam fast when I need to. Easy to dial in and make a sound more exciting.”

“Synthetic Strings is full of vintage analog tones, from icy string machines to warm and wooly basses, and it’s a great complement to the other NOVO packs. The sound quality is outstanding and it’s great to have this content wrapped in the excellent NOVO user interface, which makes it easy to create everything from darkly evolving cinematic pulses to retro-futuristic strings. Even though I own tons of vintage hardware synths, the capabilities of the NOVO engine takes these sounds to another level of control and experimentation. Definitely recommended!”

“Rhythmic Textures takes great sounding organic string recordings and pushes them in new directions with creative arranging and processing.
The result is a compelling collection of fascinating string performances, easily accessed and shaped for any project.”

“To my ears, GRAVITY is complete perfection. There is a staggering variety of colors in GRAVITY but there is also an overall unifying design to it. The ambient sonorities are lush, evocative and hypnotic. The Risers and Stings are spectacular and the Hits are huge and completely awe-inspiring. I think GRAVITY is the greatest sample library ever produced.”

“DM-307 is yet another example of Heavyocity standing out from the crowd. Their stuff is always bold, and let me tell you this thing is BOLD. Some of the sounds will take your head off right out of the box. And like all of their other synths, I love the interface. The grid is awesome, so fun to use and it just works with my writing. Heavyocity take great care in making interfaces that don’t bog you down when you’re trying to create, but rather enhance your workflow. I love these guys!!”

“Mosaic Keys is an arsenal of warm keyboard tones, carefully constructed with just the right amount of color, complemented by an analogous swath of gritty, attitude-laden patches. There’s inspiration to be found in every sound, easily tailored with Mosaic’s powerful sound-shaping tools.”

“GRAVITY lives up to its name for me. Deep, Cinematic, and extremely playable. It brings such instant satisfaction, but with extensive tweak ability as well. It just sounds Alive to me. An instant addition to my next movie score”

“PUNISH is the perfect cure for that boring ‘straight out of the box’ sound. From subtle sonic facelifts to all out audio decimation, Heavyocity gives us the plugin we didn’t know we needed but probably won’t be able to live without”

“GRAVITY is a cutting-edge, unique design tool that uses intensely well-recorded live orchestral and analog sources to create modern ambiences, pulses, risers and more. Tweaking sounds within the elegantly designed Kontakt interface is fast and pushes the envelope in creative, musical ways. The programming is top notch and inspires new directions… This is an amazing, really fun tool that I highly recommend.”

“PUNISH is brilliant. Accurate and precise, it can add simple punch to your track or mixes or completely destroy them! It already did wonders on my Analog synth tracks for the Deus Ex Mankind Divided soundtrack!”
