STEP-BY-STEP GUIDES
What Formats Are Included?
All of them. One price.
Every library ships with DAW Packs, Multi-Format files, and the Kontakt Edition — you don't pick a version at checkout and you don't pay more for a different one. It's all sitting in your account the moment your order goes through.
The important thing to know before you download anything: every format contains the same music. Same performances, same takes, same song kits. The only difference is how it's packaged. So you don't need all of them, and downloading several usually means downloading the same content more than once.
Here's the order to think about it in.
1. Start with the DAW Pack
If there's a DAW Pack for your DAW, download that one and stop reading.
A DAW Pack is a project file that opens as a finished session — instruments already on their own tracks, labelled and arranged by song section, tempo and key already set. You open it and you're inside the arrangement.
DAW Packs exist for Logic Pro, Pro Tools, Cubase, GarageBand, Ableton Live, Studio One and Reaper.
If you work in FL Studio, Reason, or anything else, there's no session file — go to WAV below. You get the same music, you just build the session yourself.
2. If there's no DAW Pack for you, take WAV
WAV is the universal option and the right default whenever you're unsure.
It works in every DAW that plays audio — no plugin, no extra software, no installer. Drag the files onto tracks and go. Files are labelled by BPM and key, so your DAW knows what it's handling.
The WAV files are also Acidised, which means they carry tempo and key metadata. Most DAWs read it and stretch the audio to your project tempo automatically. The ones that don't will simply treat them as ordinary WAV files — nothing breaks either way.
If you only ever download one thing from us, make it this.
3. Everything else is optional
These exist because some workflows genuinely benefit from them. None of them contain music the WAV files don't.
Apple Loops
For Logic Pro and GarageBand. Same audio, wrapped with Apple's metadata so it appears in Logic's Loop Browser and follows project tempo and key natively. Convenient if you live in Logic. Skippable if you don't.
REX
For Reason, and readable by a handful of other hosts. Loops arrive pre-sliced, so you can rearrange individual hits inside a phrase rather than treating the loop as one block. Niche, and worth it if you already work this way.
Multitrack Drums
Where a library includes them. 24-bit WAV files, one per microphone: kick, snare, overheads, room, and so on, as separate tracks. This is the full studio session with nothing collapsed down. Download it when you want to mix the kit yourself rather than use the finished stereo drums — gate the snare, push the room mics, rebalance the whole thing. It's WAV, so it works everywhere.
4. Kontakt, only if you already use it
The Kontakt Edition is included with every library, and most people never touch it. That's fine.
You don't need Kontakt. Everything in it is already in the WAV files. If you don't own it, you're not missing content.
If you do use it, two things are worth knowing. It requires the full paid version of Kontakt, 5.6.5 or higher — it won't load in the free Kontakt Player or as a standalone VST. And it isn't a multi-sampled virtual instrument. It's a phrase-based engine built from the same recorded performances, so you're arranging and triggering real takes rather than playing melodies from a keyboard.
So which should I download?
Short version:
See a DAW Pack for your DAW? Take it. Don't? Take WAV. Already using Kontakt? Take that too, if you want it.
Everything else is there if a specific workflow calls for it.
