Where the sound comes from

Recorded on Hollywood's great scoring stages.

From the MGM Scoring Stage at Sony Pictures to the Newman Scoring Stage at Fox Studios, our libraries are captured in the same rooms, by the same players, behind decades of film scores. That is the sound you are building your template on.

  • Real roomsThe air of the stage is part of every sample, so it sits in a film mix without extra reverb work.
  • Real playersFirst-call Los Angeles session musicians, recorded up close.
  • Real instrumentsFrom a harpsichord modeled on a 1624 Franco-Flemish design to a concert grand, sampled by hand.

From the stage to your session

Straight into your template.

Our libraries open as playable instruments right inside your DAW, so the sound of the scoring stage is under your fingers the moment you start writing.
