Software instrument vendor EastWest has announced that anyone who hasn't already signed up to its Composer Cloud subscription service can now get a taste of what it offers with a 30-day free trial.

The trial includes three instruments - the Joe Chiccarelli Volume of ProDrummer, Symphonic Orchestra Gold and Stormdrum 2 - plus the Spaces convolution reverb. Those who go on to sign up to the Complete Plan can access EastWest's entire Composer Cloud Gold collection, which contains 9,000+ virtual instruments, for $29.99 a month. Students and teachers can have access to seven products for $14.99 a month.

Commenting on the new trial offer, EastWest producer Doug Rogers said: "The Composer Cloud Free Trial allows us to give those who haven't experienced the quality of our instruments a risk-free opportunity to test-drive some of our most popular products for a month.

"It also gives potential customers a chance to see how easy the Composer Cloud model works. This opens a whole new world of creative possibilities to artists, composers and producers, and levels the playing field between professionals and those wishing to explore their creativity."
