Troels Brun Folmann

Troels co-owned a music sampling company called Tonehammer, a developer of premium virtual instruments for composers and producers. As of August 2011, Tonehammer was split into two separate companies with Troels leading a new music-sampling company, along with partner Tawnia Knox, called 8Dio Productions. The virtual instruments of 8Dio range from epic choirs and epic percussion ensembles to solo vocals and next-generation hybrid scoring tools, with over 250 products serving every genre worldwide. In May 2018, Troels Folmann launched the Sequential Prophet X with Dave Smith (founder of the original Sequential Circuits synthesizer company). The Prophet X is an analog hybrid sample synthesizer with over 150 GB of sample content. The Prophet X earned the prestigious TEC Award, which was the second TEC Award Troels Folmann has received. In October 2021 Troels Folmann launched Soundpaint, which is an advanced music instrument technology. Soundpaint renders all instruments with infinite dynamic velocities in real time. ==Awards==
