Benefits of using SINE
Just download what you need
Relax about your disk space: Just download the instruments and mic positions you need—no need to download the entire collection at once. Same goes for the shop, too: You can buy single instruments instead of full collections if you prefer.
Easy to customize
Some people like working with keyswitches, some people don’t. No problem—you can customize SINE to match your workflow. The articulation list is really powerful, and there are loads of advanced options under the hood.
Detailed control when you need it
From total control over dynamics and round robins to multiple legato options, when you want pin-point control, it’s there. But it won’t get in your way when you don’t need it.
Mix and merge
Preserve your system resources: Fine-tune your mix using multiple mic positions, then merge into a single channel within the player.
Great sounds included, totally FREE
The SINEplayer includes an array of useful instruments—piano, strings, percussion, and more. This is our free SINEfactory library, and it’s constantly growing. Take a look under My Licenses, and download what you need.
FAQ
It makes a lot of things easier. For example, on a basic level it means you have a consistent workflow across all your OT collections. This is key—we created SINE originally because we felt that the tools available at the time weren’t really suited to a compositional workflow. And advanced users can get even more out of SINE—being able to build combination patches with instruments from multiple collections, or the detailed dynamics control, for example. On a practical level, it saves us from putting the same features in every collection we release.
Yes! SINE itself is a player engine and an instrument store, so you can get sounds, or instruments, from within SINE: Start out with our free SINEfactory instruments—you’ll find a free piano, strings, percussion, and more under My Licenses. Then head to the Store to pick up our free orchestral chords collection, Layers.
Yes, it’s really free, and there’s no catch. All you need to do is set up an OT account. We treat your account data with the utmost care—it’s secure and it’s not shared anywhere.
