M-Audio, a manufacturer of creative tools for computer-centric musicians, is proud to announce shipment of the new ProSessions Liquid Cinema series of sample CDs. Produced by renowned composer Jeff Rona--whose credits include Traffic, Homicide: Life on the Street, Black Hawk Down, Chicago Hope, The Mothman Prophecies--these new volumes of ProSessions Sound and Loop Libraries are designed to provide inspiration for any creative project.

“Over the years I have developed a method of scoring for film, TV and records that keeps things fresh, interesting and cinematic,” says Rona. “I continually develop palettes of sounds and rhythms that I can draw from for the project at hand. Like a painter, they’re my palettes of colors before I touch a brush to canvas. I’ve collected many of these unique sounds—and created a lot of brand new ones—and put them together in Liquid Cinema. This collection delivers excitement and inspiration for film, television, commercials, music production, trailers and games.”

Liquid Cinema features the following volumes:

Cinematic Ambience, a broad collection of beds, drones, pads and washes; Cinematic Impact, massive hits and whooshes; Cinematic Pulse, hard-hitting unusual rhythms designed to create dramatic impact and drive energy without drums—dark, frenetic, melodic and worldly; Junkyard Sessions, fresh percussive performances using found objects; Tabla Science, tight tabla and dholki grooves from a master studio percussionist; The Hollywood Players: Late Night Sessions (Volumes 1, 2), retro-jazzy funk stylings from all-star session players delivered on isolated drum, bass and keyboard tracks.

Liquid Cinema is now shipping. Each volume sells for $49.95.
