Sonik Capsules represent a step forward in multi-format sound libraries for software samplers. Thanks to the exclusive UFO software included, each Sonik Capsule title is able to work as a "native" sample library in the most popular software samplers including IK SampleTank, Steinberg HALion, eMagic exS24, Native Instruments In addition, thanks to the inclusion of the new SampleTank 2 LE, each of these titles can also be used directly as a sound module plug-in in the 9 platforms supported by SampleTank 2 in MacOS9, MacOSX and Windows. While most of the libraries on the market are programmed natively for only one or just a few formats, Sonik Capsules are the only libraries that are able to work in many of the most popular samplers and have the ability to work in additional formats added over time. Sonic Reality has achieved this with a proprietary software application called UFO (Universal Format Outputter) which uses a built-in Translator engine combined with an intelligent sound library installer to offer this amazing flexibility of native sound support in so many possible formats. Starting from the wave content, the UFO is able to install the Sonik Capsule titles onto a hard drive in ALL of the supported formats with true native compatibility and even enhanced programming which is something mere translation software cannot do. The UFO is easy to use. The user simply inserts the library disc into any MacOSX or Windows machine and selects the destination sample format and the UFO will install the library so it is instantly usable in a variety of formats of your choosing. Sonik Capsules will be able to work directly as a sound module plug-in with the included SampleTank 2 LE software, a special version of IK's brand new SampleTank 2 plug-in sample workstation. Used with SampleTank 2, the Sonik Capsules will be able to work in pretty much every popular open platform sequencer or DAW (including ProTools, Cubase, Logic, Sonar, Digital Perfomer and many others) because of SampleTank 2 LE's support for RTAS, VSTi, DXi, MAS and Audio Units plug-in formats for Mac0S9, Mac0SX and Windows XP. Plus all of the Sonik Capsules have been expertly programmed to take full advantage of the many exclusive features included in SampleTank 2 LE like powerful multi-effects, STRETCH, loop-sync, and more for enhanced usablity. Sonik Capsules will cover every category of instruments and ensembles with a range of over 24 titles. Each title is a single disc that specializes in offering a focused collection of great sounds like Acoustic or Electric Guitars, Acoustic or Electric Pianos, Studio Drums, Bass, Brass, Solo Strings, Ensemble Strings, Organs, Winds, FX, Percussion and more. Price and availability The Sonik Capsules have an MSRP of $99 each. The first range of 6 Sonik Capsules (Studio Drums, Studio Bass, FX Drums, Groove, Electric Guitar, Acoustic Guitar) will be available by March 2004.
