Alchemy Player is the perfect solution if you lust after the sounds of Alchemy but don't want to create your own presets. It's also extremely affordable at just $59 / €49 / £39. The Player is included free when you purchase any Alchemy soundbank, turning each of these banks into a standalone instrument in its own right! The ever-expanding Alchemy soundbank line already consists of seven banks featuring world-class sound designers such as Biolabs, BigTone and Junkie XL covering everything from Cinematic to Dance sounds.

Alchemy Player includes 150 presets and 360 MB of samples taken from the full factory library, including evolving soundscapes, lush pads, and pulsing arpeggios. With your first soundbank from Camel Audio you get 300 flexible presets for the modest price of $59.

Cinematic consists of 150 presets which will provide loads of inspiration for film, TV and ambient composers. With dramatic soundscapes, mysterious textures and evocative atmospheres, it covers a lot of emotional ground, with moods ranging from gentle and thoughtful, romantic and moving, through upbeat all the way to bleak and disturbing.

Ideal for many genres such as action and adventure, suspense, sci-fi and horror, and packed with slowly evolving details and innovative instrumental layers, Cinematic also includes over 100 MB of new samples ranging from a collection of thunderous hits and stabs to tinkling chimes, suspense-filled drones, bowed horror ambiences, treated guitar washes, and a selection of analogue and digital synths and keyboard sounds

Dance & Trance drives your music towards hypnotic euphoria, with its anthemic leads and basses, chordal stabs, pumping beats, stuttering gated riffs and darting arpeggios. Featuring massive supersaw and hard sync synths, aggressive underground sounds and epic hooks, it also has a gentler side when you want to chill out, with seriously lush pads, digital synths, breathy sweeps, skippy grooves, and dancing delays.

Whether you like your sounds classic, acid, progressive, or uplifting, raising the energy has never been so easy, while loops, arpeggios and riffs all remain tempo-locked to your songs whatever their BPM. It also includes a few specially-selected samples including four-on-the-floor beats, fat basses and specially flavoured synths.
