Take a World Tour of Stunning Instruments, Loops, and Phrases
To create UVI's World Suite software instrument, UVI scoured the globe across centuries of musical history to compile one of the most comprehensive world instrument collections ever made. Over 50,000 samples, 320 instruments, and 8,000 loops and phrases feature easy-to-work-with interfaces and instrument-specific controls — everything you need to produce convincing world instrument performances in your DAW. Whether you're producing songs, doing commercial spots, or post production for film, UVI World Suite is one of the most complete and flexible world instrument collections we've seen at Sweetwater in a long time.
This product requires that you have an iLok account for authorization, although it does not require a physical iLok key. It also requires UVI Workstation or Falcon. Please call your Sweetwater Sales Engineer if you have questions.

A huge range of world instruments, captured with exceptional quality
For producers that want a wide selection of world instrument sounds available at a moment's notice, World Suite is a dream come true. Over 320 instruments are available, divided into 12 groups by geography/ethnography: Africa, Asia, Australia, Celtic, Eastern Europe, India, Indonesia, Middle East, Occidental, South America, Spanish Gypsy and West Indies. All instruments were skillfully recorded to capture both the instruments' inherent character as well as traditional playing methods.


Create realistic performances with instrument-specific controls
With UVI's World Suite, different instruments offer custom controls to help you achieve precisely the sound you're aiming for. For example, you can vary the amount of fret noise on stringed instruments, or adjust the virtual head response on pitched percussion instruments. All instruments feature a 3-band EQ and IR reverb for adding the final polish.
A smarter way to work with loops and phrases
World Suite's intuitive browser allows you to drop loops and phrases directly into your DAW, and it has a smarter way to audition while you're creating. It's called the World Suite Traveler, and it allows you to mix, transpose, and audition up to six loops simultaneously. When you're searching for loops and phrases that complement each other well, it's much quicker and more effective to do this directly in the World Suite Traveler interface. Once you've found the right combination of loops and phrases, and transposed them to your liking, simply drop them into tracks in your DAW to continue working.
