Zenhiser
Zenhiser sells downloadable sounds, loops, MIDI and presets for music production. Its catalog is aimed at producers, remixers and film scorers, and the company says it serves producers at all levels. The Technology sample pack includes song starters, loops, stems, drum sounds and one-shots; its listing specifies 461 samples, 5.1GB unzipped and no MIDI, with drum kick samples also identified. Technology audio is supplied as 24-bit WAV and described as 100% royalty free; the listed sample format is 24-bit 44.1 kHz WAV. The pack is priced at $53, paid once. After an order is complete, download links appear on the order page and in a backup email. Links do not expire, but each product allows five download attempts, which are IP logged.

Zenhiser was founded in 2005 by Tony Rapacioli.
