| Industry Feedback On EVOLVE: |

“My first impressions when using EVOLVE and listening back to a mix was just how good and 3-D the sound was. It works flawlessly and is inspiring. It is detailed and clear. Even for the "Tweaker" there are many things you can do. It may be the best sounding plugin sonically I have heard.” ... Craig Sharmat - Veteran Film and TV Composer (Scoredog Music)

The People Behind Heavyocity
Heavyocity is a collaborative of pro composers and sound designers "Heavy Melody". Their mission was to create a collection of world class virtual instruments for today’s modern composer and sound designer. Their philosophy is simple: Design cutting edge, inspiring instruments and sounds that supercharge creativity, formatting them in a way that enhances productivity. With so many “all encompassing” virtual instruments on the market, sifting through thousands of patches disrupts the creative process. One of the main goals of Heavyocity is to provide those PERFECT “go-to” signature elements quickly and effectively. It is from this concept that they created EVOLVE.
Today, all of Heavy Melody’s high-profile audio work is top-notch and is produced to meet tight deadlines. This requires the team to engage technology to its fullest and always keep up with emerging industry trends. In recent years, the need for a modern virtual instrument that could deliver world-class sound in a more inspiring and streamlined way became clear. They soon founded Heavyocity and began the development of EVOLVE. “EVOLVE is the creative tool we’ve always wanted,” says Heavyocity visionary Dave Fraser, “It’s going to make people realize there’s a different way to do things.“ Heayvocity co-founder Neil Goldberg adds, “As soon as you dive into EVOLVE, its power and potential to inspire creativity will be clear.” |
