HOLLYWOOD — EASTWEST, the industry leader in soundware development and distribution, is offering a last chance to receive a free* (*see conditions online at, www.soundsonline.com, on each product page) upgrade to the company‘s PLAY software version (when available) with a purchase of it‘s current Kompakt/Kontakt powered products, as well as a chance to purchase many bundled products at a discounted price of up to 67%. The deadline for both offers is October 31, 2007 while stocks last.
EASTWEST‘s PLAY software, a 64-bit (with 32-bit compatibility) advanced sample engine, allows users to load many more instruments and voices, limited only by the computer‘s RAM.

• Quantum Leap RA, one of the largest and most comprehensive collections of ethnic instruments.
• Quantum Leap Colossus, 32 gig all-in-one collection of 160 high-quality instruments that was voted “Virtual Instrument of the Year”. Colossus will be upgraded to Goliath with approximately 20% more content (there will be an upgrade fee for the additional content).
