Pick Arcade by Output if…
Arcade suits music makers who want a large sample and instrument library, custom playable kits, and DAW plugin support on macOS or Windows. Its standalone app can preview and play content, but recording directly in that app is not available.
Pick ProjectSAM if…
ProjectSAM is aimed at musicians, composers, and production studios creating film, television, or game scores. It may suit users looking for orchestral material, effects, or choir content in Kontakt-based libraries.
