ESC PluginGuru Tribute Library -Omnisphere 2- REVIEW
When I heard there was a group of
programmers called the ESC (European Sound Collective) that created a tribute
library for the legendary PluginGuru (John “Skippy” Lehmkuhl) who started sound
designing in the late 80's, I got really excited. John Lehmkuhl has put a lot
of work in teaching his talents to others. He has done music, sound
rhythm and remix programming for many top musicians like Hans Zimmer, James
Newton Howard, Harry Gregson-Williams, Kenny Loggins, Fleetwood Mac, Madonna,
Mariah Carey, Whitney Huston, and Richard Marx- just to name a few.
The ESC group decided they were going to thank John and
build a new Omnisphere 2 Soundset Library as a Tribute to sound designing
master PluginGuru. The ESC is a collective of incredible sound designers and
composers.
Even though there are more than 16 members currently part
of the ESC, these are the names of the 16 who contributed to this library:
Burny Huber (Holland), Gareth Adonai (Germany), Tim Dale (Wales), Wolfgang
Stindl aka Ikarus (Austria), Florian Gerger aka Clark Parker (Germany), Harald
Geyer (Germany), Jan Bakker (Belgium), Henrik J. Larsen aka JX3D (Danmark),
Darius Jambor aka Wizmos (Poland), Marcel Krapels aka Prikwol (Holland), Anton
Anru (Russia), Stephan Baer(Zwitzerland), Marius Janssen (Germany), Henrik
Johanson aka Henky, Airwave aka Laurent Veronnez, Adam Henderson aka Caxa.
The library consists of 250 patches with
50 sound sources and requires Omnisphere 2.1 or later.
REVIEW
To be honest, I wanted this library so
badly to live up to its name. However, I approached it with a neutral unbiased
approach. Even though I was a huge fan of John the PluginGuru, I wondered if
the sound designers could really produce a worthy tribute and pull this off.
With fingers crossed I unzipped the file, imported it into Omnisphere 2, and
took a deep breath. I knew damn well this was going to be a long session. No
matter how long it took I was going to sit there and audition every patch in
this library. Next to me, I had a pot of coffee brewed and my monitors turned
up. I began with first folder ARP+BPM and holy cow did it hit me, this is
sounding powerful, but will it stay strong. Folder after folder I played and
when I landed in the Pads+Strings folder I almost choked on my coffee. The
patches were so lush, full and rich with emotional character that I didn't want
to stop playing them. The production level of this library is top notch and
obviously has been developed with the PluginGuru standards.
This is an absolute astonishing tribute that really showcases these sound designer’s talents. I can't wait to see what the ESC releases next, I'm sure it will be a tour de force. It must feel great to have sixteen Luke Skywalkers show off their jedi sound design skills to the great Obi Wan Kenobi. Sorry for the Star Wars pun but I couldn't help but think what a great gift to receive from such talented individuals who have learned something from John's Youtube videos. I feel this library is worth so much more than its regular price point. It not only contains a huge amount of stunning material, but it offers patches that can be used in all kinds of genres of music. Everything from killer vintage synth sounds to modern scoring textures, you'll find it here. Another part of the library I really liked was that it contains 50 new sound sources which is a combination of 100% original and some are from other PlugInGuru Sample libraries (Del Norte EDM / MegaMagic: Viola / MegaMagic: Pads, and more.
If you want to hear every patch in this library, I recorded a video below that is over 2 hours and 48 minutes long auditioning every patch. This is a tribute library that really lives up to its name and is not an Omnisphere library you should think twice about buying.
5 out of 5 stars!!

Omnisphere Ylem II by Gahrn Audio - REVIEW
is a collection of 50 textures for Spectrasonics Omnisphere 2. The sounds are designed primarily for atmospheric, otherworldly and experimental ambient, film and game music.
The soundset features:
25 Textures Playable
25 Textures Soundscape
Omnisphere Ylem II is available for € 14.00 (incl. VAT). You can download a demo pack of patches from the collection for free.
Omnisphere Ylem II requires Spectrasonics Omnisphere 2 version 2.3.2 or higher.
REVIEW
Before playing Omnisphere Ylem II, I was wondering if a soundset with only 2 categories 'textures playable' and 'textures soundscapes' was going to offer anything substantial, even if it has a fair and reasonable price point. I have so many soundsets for Omnisphere 2, I was worried that I heard it all before. If you're not familiar with Gahrn Audio, it's a sound design company owned and operated by composer, producer, and sound designer Claus Gahrn . So before pressing the first note on my keyboard, I had hoped for something special. Believe me, when I say, I can tell when a patch has been lazily created or when someone actually put some heart behind their creation. I'm here to say it's not quantity but quality here. Omnisphere Ylem II dropped any concern I had about a library that has only 50 patches in 2 categories. When I continued playing the presets I realized I was totally engrossed in another world. This set does what it's supposed to do- engross the listener. When I play an instrument I imagine the story that can be told by it on film.
Ylem II conjured up multiple scenes of dread, suspense, fear, sadness, hope, and even serenity. Some of the patches had a perfect mix of atmosphere and lo-fi giving the listener and composer the perfect gritty underscore for a dystopian world like moving picture. Whether your composing films, games or writing darker ambient music you will find an incredible use of Ylem II. The only downside to owning Ylem II is that you are going to want first Ylem. Gahrn Audio even offers some free demo download patches of this soundset making this a no-brainer to check out for yourself. I have made a video below that auditions every patch if you would like to check out. Omnisphere Ylem II is a 5 out of 5 Stars.

Its 2.7 GB of new samples, exclusively recorded and produced for Omnisphere 2 STEAM engine, gives all the Spectrasonics Omnisphere 2 users a new gem full of new soundscapes, signature samples and musical cues that will help you to write and produce your new musical masterpiece.
DARKless is more oriented towards bright tones and a positive/emotional mood, making it the perfect companion of LIGHTless, which has sound characteristics oriented towards dark tones and a mysterious/sinister and aggressive mood. Content Description 2.7+ GB of brand new STRING AUDIO signature samples exclusively recorded and produced for Omnisphere 2 305 Soundsources 346 Patches 128 Multis All Patches and Multis names contain an indication of the type of sound based on its tone and mood.
Please note that this is only an indication and you can easily edit the tone and mood of the sounds using the powerful editing functions offered by Omnisphere 2. [white] : usually a bright tone and a positive/emotional mood [grey] : usually a bright tone but with a mysterious/sinister mood [black] : usually a dark tone and a gloomy/creepy/aggressive mood
In my opinion, this is a Perfect addition to your Omnisphere 2 library and it deserves my highest rating. This is a must buy like all their other libraries.
