"Best Free VSTs of 2013"

IMHO Evolve Mutation has been over-used by about every composer who writes for tv. Some of the loops have become so cliched, they’re immediately recognizable by anyone who watches American tv dramas (and actually pays attention to the music, which --granted-- is not very common…) But if you don’t mind that, you can sure have lots of fun with that library. Kids particularly love it: load the infamous “C menu” and let them play keys at random. There’s no way they can do anything wrong… :laughing:

Main drawback: it gets stale pretty quick, because after all it’s just a collection of loops triggered by a keyboard, with minimal to no editing possibilities. Damage is far more advanced in that regard, albeit still being basically a collection of loops. But as you’ve noticed, it comes at a much higher price.

Here’s a suggestion. Can you use your voucher toward the purchase of KINETIC METAL? That’s an interesting library that’s HIGHLY customizable and allows for virtually unlimited editing. In theory, it never gets old. And it doesn’t cost more than Evolve Mutation and actually less than the bundle, if I remember correctly ($99.)
