About Us
Zenhiser was created for one simple reason, to bring new & exciting sounds to the customer at affordable prices. Our sample catalogue is designed to be very specific which enables producers, remixers and film scorers to source exactly what they need quickly and without compromise of quality.
At Zenhiser we also believe our sounds, loops, midi and presets should be available to all levels of producers, it doesn't matter whether you're a bedroom producer, ghost writer or big name DJ.
We were the first to tag our audio files with key & bpm information, the first to supply dedicated sample packs, the first to deliver an extensive 80's catalogue including drum beat packs by year, the first to deliver FX specific packs including risers, sweeps, spin backs, booms and more. We were also the first to supply bundle packs and one of the first to deliver downloadable sample packs way back in 2006. Every year we keep pushing our boundaries with more sub genres, bigger dedicated packs, an exponential curve of quality and most importantly, fresh new sounds. This is our job and we love it!
