Critic Reviews

ProjectSAM Swing More! review | MusicRadar

musicradar.com

ProjectSAM Swing More! delivers an impressive collection of over 120,000 samples that encapsulate the essence of big band music. With a focus on authentic instrumentation and multiple articulations, it stands out as a powerful tool for jazz enthusiasts. However, the review notes that while it captures much of the sound, it falls short in recreating the unique atmosphere of a live performance, making it somewhat lacking in capturing the "magic of the room." Overall, it's a fantastic resource, albeit with some limitations.
