Planet Earth
Pay What You Want Sound Library & VST/AU - 50% to Charity!

Planet Earth is a new Sound Library packed full of great sounds for electronica, ambient and dance music producers. Until the end of August you can choose what you want to pay for it, and at least 50% of proceeds will go to charity.

It features 150 stunning sounds and Alchemy Player VST/AU. Sounds include massive pads, deep soundscapes, pulsating arps and fat basses. Alchemy Player offers an additional 150 sounds.

Pay what you want. The library was produced with the same uncompromising attention to detail as all other Camel Audio Sound Libraries which sell for $59, but until the end of August, you name your price!

50% to environmental charity Friends of the Earth. By default, the amount is split equally between FOE and Camel Audio, but you can tweak the split any way you'd like.

Soundwise, Planet Earth is jammed with jungle soundscapes and tribal rhythms, industrial basses and warped machines. From ancient ritual to glimpses of alternate futures, it offers a world of new sounds for modern electronica, ambient and dance, yet manages to be both warm, lush, light and airy, as well as dark, dramatic and icy, just like Planet Earth itself.

Featuring gamelan bowls and oriental bells, bamboo bongos, glass instruments, mechanical pianos, electronic and vocal drones, Planet Earth features 320MB of new samples, including rich pads, ethnic loops, inventive soundscapes, powerful electronic basses as well as synthesisers and broken machines. It was created by a talented team of sound designers from around the globe.

Alchemy Player - Included Free!

Alchemy Player is a software instrument with an inspiring 360MB sample library and 150 instrument sounds including evolving soundscapes, lush pads, and pulsing arpeggios. Built with the Alchemy engine under the hood, it provides ready to play sounds that can be easily tweaked via the intuitive interface.

Alchemy Sound Libraries offer numerous advantages over sample libraries:
tweak sounds to fit your music using the perform controls and remix pads. Better, more responsive sounds provided by powerful synthesis and modulation. Smaller download sizes and less disk space thanks to resynthesis.
