Bandstand will change the way sound modules and GM are perceived.

The Sample Library
The superb quality of the samples included in Bandstand all meet the rigorous quality demands that are the hallmark of all Native Instruments products. The samples were crafted by the NI sound design experts. A selection of specialist companies also contributed to the outstanding Bandstand sample library.
