ProjectSAM is a renowned brand that specializes in creating exceptional cinematic sample libraries for composers and music producers. Founded in 2001 by Maarten Spruijt, Vincent Beijer, and Marco Deegenaars, their mission was to craft orchestral samples that surpassed the offerings available at the time. They focused on recording in a concert hall environment with a unique ambient, multi-mic setup.

The emphasis was on capturing the perfect articulations and note lengths to build thematic lines and instrumental effects that couldn't be replicated with individual samples alone. One of their notable releases was the Free Trumpets, a free download that served as a proof of concept. This led to their first commercial release, SAM Horns, in 2002.

ProjectSAM continued to expand their library, introducing orchestral brass, percussion, and inspiring orchestral effects with True Strike. However, it was their release of Symphobia in 2008 that revolutionized the orchestral sampling industry. Symphobia quickly became a go-to tool for film, TV, and game composers.

Building on its success, ProjectSAM developed three follow-ups: Symphobia 2, Symphobia 3: Lumina, and Symphobia 4: Pandora. Based in the Netherlands, ProjectSAM is highly respected in the industry and trusted by leading composers worldwide. Their sound can be heard in blockbuster films, television series, and video games.

With an extensive range of libraries, including Swing!, True Strike, and Orchestral Essentials, ProjectSAM offers a comprehensive selection of premium orchestral samples for all musical needs. Partnering with various distributors worldwide, they provide convenient access to their products. To learn more or make a purchase, visit the ProjectSAM website
