Zero G Music Production Software
 |
In addition to having flown in
zero gravity twice and filming in zero gravity for National Geographic, I also have a background as a sound engineer
and used to produce concerts before I sold my entertainment production
company in June of 2008. I remember working with my old 4 Track in my
house as a kid before getting my first 2 inch machine. A am still an
analog guy at heart but since using the Zero G Music Software line, my
digital recording options have increased tenfold. This website is dedicated to all things "Zero G". I have all of the Zero G Sampling products below. I know you can buy the Zero G product line many places but I am the only one "In the business" offering this awesome sampling line. Please do business here. Thanks |

"With Zero-G you can expect quality" (Sound on Sound magazine, UK). "This is virtuoso sound design" (Keyboard magazine, USA) Brief Company History Zero-G Limited was founded in 1990, trading under the name Time+Space. During the early 90's Zero-G (as Time+Space) rapidly became the largest distributor of soundware in the UK and one of the most critically acclaimed sound developers in the world. As such, it gained a reputation for providing a goldmine of musical inspiration, a place where recording artists, songwriters, producers, engineers, DJs, recording studios, and sound designers all over the world can find all the sound material they need, in one place, to create demos, records, remixes, commercials, jingles, post productions, sound tracks for film, theatre, musicals, live performance, computer games and multimedia productions. In early 1997 Zero-G decided to split its operations into two separate companies by creating a new offshoot company (Time+Space Distribution Ltd) which would then be able to concentrate exclusively on the quality UK distribution of world-wide sourced third-party products, without distractions or conflict of interests, thereby leaving Zero-G Limited to concentrate purely on quality sound design, publishing, and management of the Zero-G brand. The founders continue to expand the sound design company while of course retaining a close relationship with the highly successful UK distribution company Time+Space. Today, Zero-G is still a privately owned company, and an industry leader in the field of Soundware Development. The extensive product line published by Zero-G covers a huge variety of styles and provides Soundware in file formats that include APPLE LOOPS, ACID, AIFF, AKAI, AUDIO, INTAKT, KOMPAKT, KONTAKT, EXS24, GIGA, HALion, REX, REASON REFILL, ROLAND, SAMPLECELL, STYLUS RMX, Mixman TRK, and WAV. The company works closely with a roster of over 100 professional independent music producers and releases many new sample collections each year. Creative Inspiration Never Came This Fast...

Music Sampling In music, sampling is the act of taking a portion, or sample, of one sound recording and reusing it as an instrument or a different sound recording of a song. This is typically done with a sampler, which can be a piece of hardware or a computer program on a digital computer. Sampling is also possible with tape loops or with vinyl records on a phonograph. Often "samples" consist of one part of a song, such as a break, used in another, for instance the use of the drum introduction from Led Zeppelin's "When the Levee Breaks" in songs by the Beastie Boys, Dr. Dre, Eminem, Mike Oldfield, Rob Dougan, Depeche Mode and Erasure, and the guitar riffs from Foreigner's "Hot Blooded" in Tone-Loc's "Funky Cold Medina". "Samples" in this sense occur often in industrial music, often using spoken words from movies and TV shows, as well as electronic music (which developed out of the musique concrète style, based almost entirely on samples and sample-like parts), hip hop, developed from DJs repeating the breaks from songs (Schloss 2004, p.36), and Contemporary R&B, but are becoming more common in other music as well. Types of Sampling Loops The drums and percussion parts of many modern recordings are really a variety of short samples of beats strung together. Many libraries of such beats exist and are licensed so that the user incorporating the samples can distribute their recording without paying royalties. Such libraries can be loaded into samplers. Though percussion is a typical application of looping, many kinds of samples can be looped. A piece of music may have an ostinato which is created by sampling a phrase played on any kind of instrument. There is software which specializes in creating loops. Samples of musical instruments Whereas loops are usually a phrase played on a musical instrument, this type of sample is usually a single note. Music workstations and samplers use samples of musical instruments as the basis of their own sounds, and are capable of playing a sample back at any pitch. Many modern synthesizers and drum machines also use samples as the basis of their sounds. (See sample-based synthesis for more information.) Most such samples are created in professional recording studios using world-class instruments played by accomplished musicians. These are usually developed by the manufacturer of the instrument or by a subcontractor who specializes in creating such samples. There are businesses and individuals who create libraries of samples of musical instruments. Of course, a sampler allows anyone to create such samples. Possibly the earliest equipment used to sample recorded instrument sounds are the Chamberlin, which was developed in the 1940s, and its more well-known cousin, the Mellotron, marketed in England in the 1960s. Both are tape replay keyboards, in which each key pressed triggers a prerecorded tape loop of a single note. Musicians can reproduce the same samples of break beats like the "Amen" break which was composed, produced and mastered by the Winston Brothers in 1960s. Producers in the early 90's have used the whole 5.66 second sample; but music workstations like the Korg Electribe Series (EM-1, ES-1; EMX-1 and the ESX-1) have used the "Amen" kick, hi hat and snare in their sound wave libraries for free use. Sampler production companies have managed to use these samples for pitch, attack and decay and DSP effects to each drum sound. These features allow producers to manipulate samples to match other parts of the composition. Most sample sets consist of multiple samples at different pitches. These are combined into keymaps, that associate each sample with a particular pitch or pitch range. Often, these sample maps may have different layers as well, so that different velocities can trigger a different sample. Samples used in musical instruments sometimes have a looped component. An instrument with indefinite sustain, such as a pipe organ, does not need to be represented by a very long sample because the sustained portion of the timbre is looped. The sampler (or other sample playback instrument) plays the attack and decay portion of the sample followed by the looped sustain portion for as long as the note is held, then plays the release portion of the sample. A common standard format for generating such sample sets is the soundfont protocol. Resampled layers of sounds generated by a music workstation To conserve polyphony, a workstation may allow the user to sample a layer of sounds (piano, strings, and voices, for example) so they can be played together as one sound instead of three. This leaves more of the instruments' resources available to generate additional sounds. Samples of recordings There are several genres of music in which it is commonplace for an artist to sample a phrase of a well-known recording and use it as an element in a new composition. Two well-known examples include the sample of Rick James' "Super Freak" in MC Hammer's "U Can't Touch This" and the sample of Queen/David Bowie's "Under Pressure" in Vanilla Ice's "Ice Ice Baby". Samples of spoken word Usually taken from movies, television, or other non-musical media, often used for humorous or atmospheric effect. For example, Goa trance often employs samples of people talking about drugs, spirituality, or science fiction themes. Industrial is known for samples from horror/sci-fi movies, news broadcasts, propaganda reels, and speeches by political figures (the band Ministry is notorious for sampling both the younger and elder George Bush). The band Negativland samples from practically every form of popular media, ranging from infomercials to children's records. A good example of this is "Civil War" by Guns N' Roses on their album Use Your Illusion II. Other bands that frequently used samples in their work are noise rockers Steel Pole Bath Tub and death metal band Skinless. Unconventional sounds These are not musical in the conventional sense - that is, neither percussive nor melodic - but which are musically useful for their interesting timbres or emotional associations, in the spirit of musique concrete. Some common examples include sirens and klaxons, locomotive whistles, gunshots, natural sounds such as whale song, and cooing babies. It is common in theatrical sound design to use this type of sampling to store sound effects that can then be triggered from a musical keyboard or other software. This is very useful for high precision or nonlinear requirements. Sample Clearance Services Similar to companies that obtain mechanical licenses for licensees who wish to use musical compositions to make new sound recordings, sample clearance services obtain licenses to clear the rights involved with using a sample. Clearance services can obtain sample license offers on behalf of independent artists and producers who utilize samples in their "new works," or on behalf of record labels who plan to distribute their "new works." "New work" refers to the new musical composition and sound recording which utilizes a sample from another work. Note that a music sample contains two separate copyrighted works. One is the original sound recording, and the other is the underlying musical composition. Sample clearance companies can be a very cost effective way to clear samples, because it costs much more to hire an entertainment attorney to perform similar services. However, it is important to know that a sample clearance service is no replacement for a competent entertainment attorney with the additional ability to provide legal advice. Clearance services cannot perform this function unless run by an attorney. Remember that sample clearance is a very important part of making an album containing samples a legally viable product. "Without proper clearance, the owners of the original work you sampled can sue for large sums of money or prevent distribution of your album. "It is important to recognize that "one sample may consist of 2 clearances (ie one master clearance & one publishing clearance)." Often, sample clearance services are run by people with extensive experience in the music publishing industry or business affairs departments at record labels. Their prior experiences allow them to efficiently navigate the system, locate the rights holders and obtain proper sample license offers. However, an entertainment attorney is a must when tackling deeper issues involving legal advice that creators of "new works" may have never anticipated. So the easiest way to sample is through Zero G Software. Music Loops In electronic music, a loop is a sample which is repeated. Loops may be repeated through the use of tape loops, delay effects, cutting between two record players, sampling, a sampler or with the aid of Computer Based Looping Software like Zero G. "Loops are short sections of tracks (probably between one and four bars in length), which you believe might work being repeated." A loop is not "any sample, but...specifically a small section of sound that's repeated continuously." Contrast with a one-shot sample. "A loop is a sample of a performance that has been edited to repeat seamlessly when the audio file is played end to end." Looping Origins While repetition is used in the musics of all cultures the first musicians to use loops were electronic pioneers Pierre Henry, Edgard Varèse and Karlheinz Stockhausen. Stockhausen's music in turn influenced the Beatles to experiment with tape loops, and their use of loops in early psychedelic works (most notably 1966's "Tomorrow Never Knows" and 1968's avant-garde "Revolution 9") brought the technique into the mainstream. Later, inspired by Terry Riley's use of one tape on two tape machines, Brian Eno and Robert Fripp created the technical basis for their (No Pussyfooting) album - this technological concept was later dubbed Frippertronics. Another approach was the use of pre-recorded loops, first exemplified by Grandmaster Flash and his turntablism. Use of pre-recorded loops made its way into many styles of popular music, including hip hop, trip hop, techno, drum and bass, and contemporary dub, as well as into mood music on soundtracks. Modern looping Today many musicians use digital hardware and software devices to create and modify loops, often in conjunction with various electronic musical effects. In the early 1990s dedicated digital devices were invented specifically for the use in live looping i.e. loops that are recorded in front of a live audience. Live looping is not exclusive to electronic music and is found in the singer/songwriter genre, achieving new popularity in the employ of popular artists such as Ani DiFranco and KT Tunstall. Computer programs to create music using loops range in features, user friendliness, and price. Some of the most widely used are, Digidesign's Pro Tools, Sony's ACID and Sound Forge, Cakewalk Sonar, ReCycle, GarageBand, FL Studio (formerly Fruity Loops), Propellerhead's Reason and Ableton Live. Many hardware loopers exist in rack unit, effect pedal, or other forms. Early examples of rack and pedal loopers are the Gibson Echoplex[1] and the Electro-Harmonix 16 Second Delay. In 2004 there were 20 live looping festivals in 12 countries in this burgeoning international movement. These include Loopstock established in 2002 in San Luis Obispo, California, and the Y2K? series, established in 2000 in Santa Cruz, California. The Y2K4 International Live Looping Festival in October 2004 in San Francisco and Santa Cruz drew 50 loopers from 5 different countries over four days. The musical loop is one of the most important features of video game music. It is also the guiding principle behind devices like the Buddha machine, an ambient-music generating device. zero g software music sampling home recording studio garageband garage band digital vocaloid Afghanistan Aland Islands Albania Algeria American Samoa Andorra Angola Anguilla Antigua and Barbuda Argentina Armenia Aruba Australia Austria Azerbaijan Bahamas Bangladesh Barbados Belarus Belgium Belize Benin Bermuda Bhutan Bolivia Bosnia Botswana Bouvet Island Brazil British Indian Ocean Territory Brunei Darussalam Bulgaria Burkina Faso Burundi Cambodia Cameroon Canada Cape Verde Cayman Islands Central African Republic Chad Chile Charter China Christmas Island Cocos (Keeling) Islands Colombia Comoros Congo Congo, Democratic Republic of the Cook Islands Costa Rica Côte d'Ivoire Croatia Cuba Cyprus Czech Republic Denmark Djibouti Dominica Dominican Republic Ecuador Egypt El Salvador Equatorial Guinea Eritrea Estonia Ethiopia Falkland Islands Faroe Islands Fiji Finland France French Guiana French Polynesia French Southern Territories Gabon Georgia Germany Ghana Gibraltar Greece Greenland Grenada Guadeloupe Guam Guatemala Guernsey Guinea Guinea-Bissau Guyana Haiti Holy See (Vatican City State) Honduras Hong Kong Hungary Iceland India Indonesia Iran, Islamic Republic of Iraq Ireland Isle of Man Israel Italy Japan Jersey Jordan Kazakhstan Kenya Kiribati Korea, Democratic People's Republic of Korea, Republic of Kuwait Kyrgyzstan Lao People's Democratic Republic Latvia Lebanon Lesotho Liberia Libyan Arab Jamahiriya Liechtenstein Lithuania Luxembourg Macedonia, the former Yugoslav Republic of Madagascar Malawi Malaysia Maldives Mali Malta Marshall Islands Martinique Mauritania Mauritius Mayotte Mexico Micronesia, Federated States of Moldova, Republic of Monaco Mongolia Montenegro Montserrat Morocco Mozambique Myanmar Namibia Nauru Nepal Netherlands Netherlands Antilles New Caledonia New Zealand Nicaragua Niger Nigeria Niue Norfolk Island Norway Oman Pakistan Palau Palestinian Territory, Occupied Panama Papua New Guinea Paraguay Peru Philippines Pitcairn Poland Portugal Puerto Rico Qatar Réunion Russian Federation Rwanda Saint Barthélemy Saint Helena Saint Kitts and Nevis Saint Lucia Saint Martin (French part) Saint Pierre and Miquelon Saint Vincent and the Grenadines Samoa San Marino Sao Tome and Principe Saudi Arabia Senegal Serbia Seychelles Sierra Leone Singapore Slovakia Slovenia Solomon Islands Somalia South Africa South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands Spain Sri Lanka Sudan Suriname Svalbard and Jan Mayen Swaziland Sweden Switzerland Syrian Arab Republic Taiwan, Province of China Tanzania, United Republic of Thailand Timor-Leste Togo Tokelau Tonga Trinidad and Tobago Tunisia Turkey Turkmenistan Turks and Caicos Islands Tuvalu Ukraine United Arab Emirates United Kingdom United States United States Minor Outlying Islands Uruguay Uzbekistan Vanuatu Venezuela Viet Nam Virgin Islands, British Virgin Islands, U.S. Wallis and Futuna Yemen Zambia Zimbabwe Zero G Product Specs Zero G Vocaloid 2 Prima Virtual Vocalist Prima is a virtual female vocalist modelled on the voice of a professional soprano singer. Once Prima is installed into your PC, she will allow you to create synthesized singing with unprecedented quality and remarkable realism. Whether it's soaring leads, harmonies or backing vocals, your virtual singer can aritculate any word from the English language (and other languages too with a little work) and hit any note with perfect accuracy. Since the woman's voice can easily be modified or shaped in many ways, you can be as adventurous and experimental as you want with her. The Prima vocalist will give you high-quality performance every time. In addition to singing any words or combination of syllables or phonemes you can imagine, Prima will spread any sustained vowel (or voiced consonant) across as many notes as you like, with perfect legato. You can select from several different natural vibrato types and drag and drop your chosen type to any note or notes, controlling the time-position and amount of the vibrato. This version of Vocaloid includes major improvements in usability and synthesis quality, including a new GUI. The current Vocaloid Editor (score editing tool) has a cool new look with improved user functionality making it easier to use and helps reduce your workload. Cool features include Note Auditioning - if you press a note, singing with lyrics and pitch will be assigned to the note. It also instantly checks lyrics and notes for you. The control track for controlling timbre is transparent, so you can check two parameters at once. Now you can toggle between Playback and Rendering for each track. By rendering the finished track, you can reduce CPU load in playback (Maximum number of tracks is 16). The intuitive interface also lets you easily specify musical expression (attack and vibrato) with the Expression control feature. Prima's voice is even more realistic and natural sounding than before. The synthesis engine of Vocaloid 2 uses a different signal processing technique from Version 1, creating a clearer and more natural vocal. Last, but certainly not least, you get realtime keyboard performance (VST Instrument) - written lyrics can be assigned a note by touch of a keyboard, letting you "sing" using a keyboard. Zero G Vocaloid 2 Prima Virtual Vocalist Features: New GUI, new look More realistic, natural sounding vocal due to new signal processing technique in the synthesis engine Realtime keyboard performance Paramater controls including: Changing syllables/phonemes Timing of each note (precise position/length). Vibrato (you can change its type/position/amount/frequency). Volume Attack Crescendo or diminuendo Pitch bend (amount, and positionable in time). Glide (portamento). Resonance (Frequency/bandwidth/amplitude) Harmonics Noise Brightness Clearness Gender factor VOCALOID Editor Piano-roll editor Note editing/Automatic phonetic conversion/Phonetic editing/Note auditioning Transparent control track Toggle between playback/rendering Expression control Synchronization with host sequencer through ReWire VOCALOID Playback VSTi Playback sequence created with VOCALOID Editor VOCALOID Realtime VSTi Keyboard performance with lyrics input in advance; 4 polyphonic Supported interfaces & standards VST 2.0, ReWire Zero G The Big Reason Sample Library Collection A single collection that makes your Reason system outrageously big!
