AAS Libraries Bundle is a collection of sound packs from Applied Acoustics Systems for its Ultra Analog VA-3, String Studio VS-3, Strum GS-2 and Chromaphone 2 instruments. It contains more than 6100 presets. It does not include the instrument plugins themselves.
The Libraries Bundle gathers all of the sound packs for four AAS instruments into one purchase. The developer describes it as a way to start exploring the AAS sound universe. The packs span many genres and themes, and the presets were created by a group of sound designers including Richard Devine, Amon Tobin and Deadbeat. The bundle installs from a single custom installer under 75 MB.
The bundle covers the sound banks for Ultra Analog VA-3, String Studio VS-3, Strum GS-2 and Chromaphone 2. Across more than 50 packs, the library covers a wide range of genres and themes, which makes it useful for a specific production task or for exploring a new style.
AAS says the presets are built on physical modeling. Sounds respond dynamically to playing, presets load quickly, and there are no velocity layers to switch between.
After installation, the banks are added automatically to any of the four instruments already on your computer. If you do not own those instruments, you can play the banks with the free AAS Player, available as a plugin or standalone application.
The AAS Player supports real-time control of parameters from a MIDI controller, MIDI clock and host tempo sync for effects and modulation, and unlimited undo and redo. Each instance uses less than 256 MB of RAM.
