Ableton has news for producers and it's very simple: buy Ableton Live 8 between July 1 and August 31 2009 and get Sampler, worth 99 EUR/129 USD, for free.

A little about Sampler:

Sampler is Ableton's advanced sampling instrument. Apart from having a perfectly descriptive name, it's extremely versatile, combining traditional sampling features with advanced sound design functions. Sampler can handle any kind of multi-gigabyte instrument library you care to name. But the fun really starts when you go in deep and start sound-shaping—Sampler gives you control over every detail of your sound. Be prepared to create vibrant and complex sounds from even the most basic audio source material.
