Vincent Beijer | ProjectSAM - The future of sample libraries

Vincent Beijer, director of the sample library company ProjectSAM, shares his view about the current amount of sample libraries. Apparently, there’s no limit for the amount of, for example, string libraries. How come? Why do we continue buying sample libraries over and over again?

In 2001, composers Maarten Spruijt, Vincent Beijer and Marco Deegenaars teamed up to found ProjectSAM. Over the years, ProjectSAM has become one of the most respected orchestral sample development companies. ProjectSAM’s sounds are being used worldwide by the industry’s leading composers and can be heard in many blockbuster films, television series and video games.
