"You know the great thing about these instruments, besides the fact that they sound good, is that you can really play them and they tuck in a track very well. These instruments are a lot of bang for the buck and I find myself using them more and more."

"I've been using ManyBass for about a year now, and it has become my first choice for bass. It sounds great, and it's easy to use! Because I'm so happy with ManyBass, I’ve been trying out the other instruments too. I was immediately impressed by the fantastic sound of the acoustic guitars. The upright and fretless basses are also welcome additions to any library. With all of these instruments, the presets have some great sounds, or you can skip the presets and use your own processing. Great sounds, flexibility, and a great price. Getting these instruments is a no-brainer!"

"For some weeks now, I've been using the Manytone products and I can say that I'm really happy with them! The samples are of superb quality and all the presets are highly playable indeed! I tried the ManyBass demo on my pc, and then purchased the full version as I desperately needed a solid bass-sound to finish a backing tape I was working on at that time. I replaced my old bass library and also bought ManyGuitar, ManyOne and ManyStation. All the sounds sit perfectly in the mix and they are really a welcome addition to my VST collection!

Just hear for yourself, you won't regret it."
