Big Fish Audio is a Valencia, California-based company founded in 1986 that has grown into one of the world's largest distributors of royalty-free sample libraries, loops, construction kits, and virtual instruments. The company made audio history by recording and producing the Prosonus orchestral libraries, widely regarded as the first commercially available virtual instrument — originally sold on a 12-inch Winchester platter for $10,000 before being repackaged for the Akai platform in the 1990s and eventually bundled with the Roland S700 series and Creative Labs Sound Blaster Audio Card.

Beyond its massive catalog of loop-based sample packs spanning genres from hip-hop and R&B to cinematic scoring and world music, Big Fish Audio develops virtual instruments through its Vir2 Instruments line, which includes the award-winning Electri6ity electric guitar and Acou6tics acoustic guitar libraries, the MOJO Horn Section and MOJO Upright Bass instruments, and the Vintage series (Vintage Horns, Vintage Strings, Vintage Vibe). The company also offers Momentum, a free loop slicer and transformation plugin. Big Fish Audio serves as a distribution platform for third-party sample library brands including BOOM Library, Zero-G, SampleTekk, and others, making it a one-stop shop for music producers seeking royalty-free audio content.
