“I had the chance to try NOVO and I was amazed by the versatility and the intuitiveness of the instrument. Here we have a very powerful tool, using classic or unusual string sounds, plus a very large library of ’designed strings’ and, perhaps even more importantly, a very strong ‘Loop Designer’ machine, ready for immediate use, or with some sophisticated programming, more custom results. NOVO fills a gap that we composers were feeling when creating music with a rhythmic contemporary approach and, at the same time, an orchestral or post-orchestral sound. This may be the beginning of a new concept of great virtual instruments! Thanks Heavyocity!”

“Very cool presets and sounds. It’s great for creating loops from another approach. I seriously dig the drum and hi-hat banks. Good stuff!!”

“GRAVITY is the perfect tool for any composer scoring to picture. The sounds are inspiring and categorized in a really smart way. The interface is deep but also quick and intuitive. GRAVITY has already become one of my go to scoring tools. Thanks for nailing it again, Heavyocity.”

“I knew in about two minutes that Aeon would be welcomed with open arms into my studio. “This thing is awesome!” was the initial reaction. The sounds are really well done, very creative and very useful. And I love the super clean interface. You can easily tweak the sounds and mold them into what you need, without getting lost in a sea of pages and menus. It’s all very accessible and integrates right into the workflow. Thank you team Heavyocity.”

“FORZO is a welcome addition to the composer’s brass toolkit. Not only is it a strong fully fleshed out high quality brass library, but it includes all kinds of unique prerecorded loops and audio sound design that add greatly to its utility for the media composer.”

“Another tasteful advance in electronic music making weaponry from the vibrant and virile imagination of Heavyocity.”

“Holy interface Batman! GRAVITY is an unbelievable feat in sampling technology. Not only does it sound awesome..with endless possibilities, but it’s just plain fun. Which is where the best inspiration comes from. Thank you, Heavyocity! GRAVITY kicks a$$!”

“Between Damage, DM-307 and Evolve, I thought I had every massive percussion library I’d ever need. I was wrong. Master Sessions: Ensemble Drums brings the extra low end punch that blends perfectly with your other libraries. These are samples that you didn’t know you needed, but that now you can’t live without.”

“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!”

“For intense and aggressive percussive elements, DAMAGE is the perfect driving force to my musical compositions. I’m especially fond of the interface’s intuitive yet robust and unlimited programmability. I’ve been a longtime Heavyocity user, and I’m awestruck at their ability to produce new groundbreaking sample libraries that never disappoint.”

“Heavyocity has raised the bar with DAMAGE; the sounds, controls, and the programming of DAMAGE are truly inspirational.”

“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!”

“Damage 2 is right up my alley, but besides being a worthy successor to the Damage throne, it’s so much more. Along with the expected ultra-hard hybrid style hits and processed loops, the organic and ethnic percussion side is hugely expanded, with a massive selection of drums that are impossible to find and difficult to record. The control I get from the front panel allows me to craft my mixes from natural-sounding to way bigger than life, and the perspective mixer and kit builder features let me work with exactly the mix of sounds I want in a single Kontakt instance. It’s no surprise that Damage 2 is an absolute must-have for modern film composers.”

“In a way, FORZO is the brass library I have been waiting for. For how I write, it’s an instant addition to my palette”

“Still in shock. Endless possibilities. Breathtaking sounds. Quite literally three instruments in one! Having control over both the natural, modern string instruments and their processed, mangled counterparts is a stroke of genius.”

“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.”

“Mosaic Tape is an inspiring toolkit of gritty and nostalgic sounds that are full of crushing basses, ambient pads, and unique pulsing arps. As soon as I opened the Mosaic Tape library, I went right to the Playable pads. The playable pads are great for layering with the other Mosaic and Heavyocity libraries to create a hybrid sound. The organ and keyboard presets are my favorite! I am already using this toolkit of tape drenched sounds on a project! Thanks Heavyocity!”

“Damage 2 is unique and contains an explosion of sounds that are ready to play in stereo and surround. As soon as I opened the library, I was able to incorporate it into my template. It’s big, boomy, and bright. The percussion sounds are unique, full of colorful textures. articulations and mallet options. Ensemble Designer is wonderful for building your own personal sound. The Kit Designer is easy to use and provides endless options for kits. Being able to create my own hybrid kit was quick and easy. Damage 2 is my new go to ensemble percussion library for big, bold and detailed drums. Thanks team Heavyocity!”

“Heavyocity does it again! AEON is perfect for building melodic textures and beefy motifs, quickly and efficiently. The sonic possibilites are endless.”

“Heavyocity is consistently putting out libraries that have found their way into almost every score I’ve written over the last five years. With the release of GRAVITY, I was literally holding back cues from clients until I could add these sounds to my current projects. Well done, guys!”

“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!!”

“I love the Aeon Melodic library, and it’s so easy to use and program. When I am writing I just want stuff to “work”. “Advanced Performance Options” allow me to explore very contemporary soundscapes which is great in augmenting live musicians and orchestra. I love how easy it is to use. The sounds seem to fit seamlessly into my orchestrations. Great Work!!”

“As a big fan of the original Damage, I had high expectations for the sequel, and yet it still completely blew me away. Damage 2 is a massive leap forward, it sets a very high standard for cinematic percussion libraries. I did not expect such an extensive collection of organic drums, all of which sound amazing. Honestly, you could stop there and have a fantastic library…but there’s also a huge collection of new hybrid “Damaged” sounds, which no one does better than Heavyocity. And I love the new interface, it’s super easy to navigate around and customize things quickly, which I really appreciate when I’m deep in writing mode. Damage 2 is easily one of the best cinematic percussion libraries out there. Heavyocity I am a fan for life, you folks are mad geniuses.”

Don’t just take his word for it, try Heavyocity’s Damage 2 yourself!

“Instantly hooked on the DM-307. Its fluidity to write drums is amazing and the structure is well-planned out. Full support on this and to The Heavyocity team.”

“Mutations delivers dry, in-your-face sounds that ooze style and character. It’s also aptly named – the simple but powerful interface allows radical manipulation and sonic mayhem, which is a must for those of us looking to make every sound ‘our own.’ And of course, in the tradition of Evolve, it sounds like a million bucks and sits perfectly in all of my mixes.”

“VENTO: Modern Woodwinds is another stellar quality release from the team at Heavyocity. This library completely delivers a wonderful and deep array of woodwind textures; From the more organic Traditional patches, to many more incredibly sound-designed Evolved patches, which composers always enjoy from Heavyocity. There is such a huge variety of sounds in this library, from the more traditional woodwind textures, to Ambient pads, aletoric FX and Textures, all the way through to Rhythmic elements and Loops. You have definitely not heard woodwinds like this before! Superb! If you are working in modern scoring you should buy this. Adding it to my template immediately is a no brainer.”

“I absolutely love, LOVE this instrument. So gorgeous and expressive, and full of endless creative possibilities. So easy to use, too. One of the best libraries they have ever put out. Bravo Heavyocity.”

“Once again, the team at Heavyocity deliver a stellar product in FORZO: Modern Brass. As a composer and trombonist, I am very particular when it comes to brass libraries. FORZO delivers in all areas, with superbly performed and recorded traditional brass sections, plus hundreds of clusters, effects and swells. Then there are some amazing patches that have the modern Heavyocity twist, with mangled loops and sequences which will fit right at home into any modern production. You have never heard brass like this.”

“Vocalise 2 balances a great selection of playable vocals with some more creative treatments that work exceptionally well as layers in a composition. Each patch feels alive and is brimming with energy. The additional array of excellent vocal performances captured and organized as phrases makes this a complete and versatile instrument by Heavyocity.”

“Your product is great, and the sounds are really super useful. As you know we’re always looking for something a little different to stay current, and Evolve definitely fits that bill.”

“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.”

“I first used DAMAGE while composing the score for a major TV series. It helped me to develop fresh ideas in a quick, creative and intuitive way. Those inspiring textures pushed me into new territories and gave me the edge I was looking for. DAMAGE is very useful where epic, ballsy, energetic and organic sounds are required.”

“Finally a woodwind instrument deserving of the Heavyocity moniker. The core sounds of Vento are incredible and cover all the bases for me – huge, fat lows and smooth, detailed highs. But it’s the special designed patches that really allow these amazing new wind sounds to come into their own. Every preset I pull up is begging to have a new cue written.”

“…both Aeon Rhythmic and Melodic sound fantastic. I’ve come to expect that. But Heavyocity has gone five steps further in their programming. There is a true, real, usable, and to my mind the finest digital emulation of a step sequencer in these libraries! The sound shaping possible in the Aeon interface is better than any Kontakt library we’ve used to date at my studio. Simply put – instantly usable sounds in an infinitely customizable interface, deeply and expertly programmed.”

“I love using the MOSAIC series of instruments. Not only do they incorporate a fresh approach to tonal variation, they also build in flexible and easily customizable layers of composition design that are invaluable during the scoring process. These instruments are streamlined and user-friendly while also providing an inspiring depth of programming options. That’s a winning combination when you’re creating sounds on the fly and chasing a deadline.”

“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.”

“The DM-307 is really intuitive and easy to work with it. You can expect really nice sounds for your productions, for sure.”

“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.”

“The diversity of sound within GRAVITY is astonishing. Each sound inspires new ideas and creative techniques that enhance my writing process. The elements in GRAVITY not only sound great but are very musical and functional. Music/Sound design is pushed to new limits with GRAVITY. Any musician will benefit with GRAVITY in their toolbox.”

“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.”

“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!”

Don’t just take his word for it, try Heavyocity’s ASCEND Grand Piano Virtual Instrument yourself!

“Rhythmic Textures is not a replacement for your string library, instead it is one of those rare sample libraries that inspire ideas from the composer immediately upon playing them. The samples are rich and organic and very realistic sounding. When you play them you are immediately enticed to compose using these moody evocative smaller string ensembles, rich in mood and attitude and ideal for the composer who scores to picture. Best of all, they suggest ideas without dictating them. Highly recommended.”

“Just when Evolve had become one of my ‘go to’ musical sound design instruments, Heavyocity piles on the awesomeness with Mutations 2. I love the new designy pads, great new hits, the new interface and the real time trigger FX. 2 thumbs way up and a big grin on my face. Very useful stuff!”

“When we loaded up DAMAGE, the sound quality of the samples took our breath away. It sounds absolutely awesome – huge!

“Synthetic Strings is another colorfully powerful package from our friends at Heavyocity. The size and depth of what can be done with this library is endless from huge fat evolving synths to cutting raw synths, strings and filters. The ability to craft rhythmic patterns from raw and processed synths and strings leaves us inspired with each cue we write. Thanks Heavyocity!!”

“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.”

“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!”

“Damage 2 is a remarkable achievement! Not only has Heavyocity created an endless supply of inspiring sounds to choose from, but they’ve also made a beautiful and feature-rich engine with which to manipulate them. The recorded material and sound design is stunning. The new addition and implementation of the swells, flams, rolls, and repeats are ingenious! I’m hard-pressed to think of a library that is this versatile and, at the same time, so intuitive. All the hard work has been done, and I can just sit down and be creative!”

“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!!”

“AEON is a welcome addition to my toolkit. It’s sound quality and ease of use is refreshing. Like DAMAGE before it, AEON presents a vast array sonic possibilities for the hybrid music composer.”

“I’ve been anticipating this release for a long time, and it does not disappoint. Every single sample has such depth, clarity, and life that it feels as though you’re on the stage with that performer. There is no shortage of variety. In addition to the standard single hits, the transitions and hybrid elements are incredibly useful tools.”

“As soon as I heard Damage 2 was coming out, I got chills. This is the library I’ve been waiting for for 10 years. Going through the sounds of Damage 2 – they’re just incredible. They’re organic and raw when you want them to be, and they’re dirty, grungy, and distorted when you need them to be. And you have all the control in the world. Heavyocity has a way of making their drums and percussion sound so punchy – they just cut through your mix, no matter what you have going on. Damage 2 will be in everything I do from here on out.”

“DAMAGE has become an integral part of my palette and it blends seamlessly regardless of the genre of music I’m working on. I was amazed at how versatile this library truly is! Not only in regards to sounds but also how you can manipulate and tweak them with their built in effects and EQ’s and filters.”

“I like having a huge pallet of sounds to draw from, and DAMAGE has extended mine further. It’s not just a preset factory though, there’s so many ways to mold or mangle the sounds into a shape that works. It might look like a big nasty noise machine, but it can be used to provide some subtle contrasts in an otherwise pretty setting too.”

“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.”

“Heavyocity’s VENTO is a remarkable take on woodwind ensemble performance. The traditional patches provide plenty of power and beauty. In the evolved patches, Heavyocity twists these amazing samples into a variety of compelling organic textures whose woodwind roots contribute to a sound far from ordinary.”

“We were hoping that no one would find out about the new DAMAGE pack… but the secret’s out. Pure sickness from the best in the biz.”

“Damage 2 is an extremely versatile library that is intuitive and fun to play with. I don’t find myself needing other percussive plugins to achieve what I’m going for. The way it’s laid out between ensembles, kits, and loops, with multiple levels of tweakability, make it a very efficient tool for many uses. The demo I made is literally me going through each section, exploring its capabilities, and having fun. Cinematic, organic, processed, loops, kits…it’s all there.”

“Well, I’ve found my new go-to brass library. Hands down the smoothest and most dynamic brass I’ve had the pleasure of playing. Add in the extended techniques and sound design patches, and it’s three libraries in one. Another stellar release!”
