East West The Darkside Mac PC Instrument eLicense

Created and produced by Doug Rogers (EastWest) and David Fridmann (MGMT, The Flaming Lips etc.), THE DARK SIDE is the first of its kind: an unconventional, 40 Gigabyte, hip and exciting collection of virtual instruments, some dark and eerie, and some which have been purposely—and skillfully!—mangled, distorted, or effected out of all recognition.

THE DARK SIDE provides inspiration for all composers and artists looking for something unique and different, and of course, if you work in film, TV, and game music production, this will give you an edge to separate you from your competitors.

THE DARK SIDE includes a vast, 40 Gigabyte collection, including dark and eerie instruments, and highly processed drums and percussion, basses, guitars, ethnic, keyboard, strings, and effected instruments, all organized into instrumental groups so you can create complete tracks.

Features:

  • Produced by award-winning producers Doug Rogers and David Fridmann (MGMT, Flaming Lips)
  • 40GB of highly processed drums and percussion, basses, guitars, ethnic, keyboard, strings, and FX instruments and sounds, all organized into instrumental groups
  • Many instruments have been purposely and skillfully mangled, distorted, or "effected" out of all recognition (plus a selection of dark and eerie instruments)
  • Easy-to-use browser displays all of your instruments
  • Interface automatically changes to display current instrument
  • Includes PLAY 2 32-bit and 64-bit* sample player, plug-in and standalone (*64-bit is Windows only at this time)
  • Easy authorization system puts licenses on hardware iLok (not included), allowing you to use the software on any computer
