coming soon: Sound Bank Alchemistry for Alchemy


This Sound Bank focusses on the interior of known and unknown sounds, deconstructing and rebuilding their harmonic structure by resynthesizing them and then manipulating their spectrals. The source material will be derived from found and often processed everyday objects and field recordings but also from musical instruments and voices. You will find cinematic Soundscapes, otherworldly textures, rhythmical sequences, ethereal pads and some real and unreal instruments.
All source material and samples will be especially produced for this Bank, some musicians will be hired like a Cello and a Brass player. There will be around 2 Gigabyte of samples and around 100 patches with 8 variations each in Alchemys Remix Pad. All 8 Performance Controllers will be assigned for each patch. Release date will be around Decembre 15, maybe earlier.
The price will be 29.95 €, you can now pre-order this Bank for 23.95 €.

New Release: Crushed Worlds Vol. 1 for Kontakt 4

I just released a new Patch Collection/Library for Kontakt 4 on patchpool:
206,4 MB unzipped - the 8 Soundscapes/Samples (produced at 48Khz/24Bit/stereo) are compressed using Kontakt 4's .ncw format - Price: 11.95 €
This patch collection is the first Volume of otherworldly textures created with crusherX, an incredible granulating device and an array of FX-Plugs processing samples from my various Libraries. Some of the textures are also sold as single wav files on patchpool, some were made exclusively for this collection.
Content:
Evil Impacts - Duration: 2:05 - Root Key: C2 - Range: C-1 - C6 - HDI: high
Gloomy Land - 2:48 - tuned - Range: C-1 - C6 - HDI: Perfect
Haunted Sleep Soundscape - 1:20 - Root Key: C2 - Range: C-1 - C6 - HDI: high
Massive Steel Cloud - 1:27 - Range: C-1 - C7 - HDI: high
Meteorites -1:31 - Root Key: C2 - Range: C0 - C6 - HDI: high
Mysterious Beauty - 1:25 - tuned - Range: C-1 - C7 - HDI: high
Phased Space (DFD mode) - 2:40 - 9 segments triggered by Keyswitches (C0-G#0) - tuned - Range: C1 - C7 - Pitchbend +/- 12 semitones - the inverted Modwheel controls LP Filter Cutoff
Surreal Female Voice Cloud - 2:19 - root key: C3 - C0-C6 - HDI: perfect
Controls:
All patches but Phased Space play in Sampler mode which enables you to control the start point of each texture with the Modwheel, so you can e.g. play a texture from the very start, hold it with the Sustain pedal and then trigger another section of the same sound simultaneously. Pitchbend is set to +/- 12 semitones for all patches. To reduce aliasing artifacts the quality of the sampler mode is either set to high or perfect. This uses more CPU than the standard setting, especially when you transpose the samples up extremely. You can set the quality setting to standard in the Group editor.
