TX16Wx Software Sampler 3, the FREE Kontakt alternative goes in the third round with many features, improvements, VST3/AAX support & more!

Hardware samplers, a product that was more interesting in the past then today. Many are still waiting for a sample that may sound vintage and modern at the same time. In the software area there are some, among other UVI Falcon, Steinberg HALion or Native Instruments Kontakt 5/6. All of them have one thing in common: they are relative expensive for one plugin. For those who do not want to spend so much, there are good alternatives available. TAL-Sampler is an affordable smart sampler plugin or even the TX16Wx software sampler that is free. The latter goes into the third round today and gets better and better.

The 3rd version comes with several new features: asynchronous disk streaming engine that brings disk streaming with ultra-low latency and reduce the amount of RAM required for smooth sample playback. On the performance side, it’s now better on CPU with improved sample interpolation and parameter processing. Also it includes a new program-centric user interface, better transient detection, better mapping editor and support for VST3/AAX plugin formats. Who spends 39€ even gets the Pro version which has time-stretch and pitch-shift modes among other features.

If you ask me for the best free sampler plugin, I will say immediately the TX16Wx software sampler 3 which is now even more powerful than before.
