Toys After Dark by PLUGHUGGER for OMNISPHERE 2.5
Toys After Dark is a glimpse into what's going in the toy factory after closing time. It is a playful and experimental soundset based on circuit-bent toys and musical instruments, such as math toys, old Casio keyboards and talking toys such as the Furby.
While the purpose of circuit-bending is to bring out new sounds and textures from simple electronics - the nature of circuit-bended gear are generally chaotic, crazy, wacky, weird, noisy and often completely bonkers. Trying to make sense of circuit-bended sounds is an exercise in patience, but that what we did with this soundset. Omnisphere 2 comes loaded with an extensive library of circuit-bent sounds and we spent quite some time listening though all the recordings for the most interesting parts. Armed with a collection of cool sounds, we started putting together our own sounds: rhythmic loops, tonal single sounds, textures and even drum loops.
All of the tonal singles have been tuned to make sense in a musical context - as much as a circuit-bent sound can be tuned - as are many of the loops and sequences. But to keep the chaotic vibe of circuit-bending some of the rhythmical material were not tuned.
Together with the single sounds we also created 50 multi sounds where created even more complex sounds and advanced rhythmic loops.
Toys After Dark contains 231 sounds:
101 Arpeggios and Sequences
19 Hits and Bits
22 Synth Bass
2 Synth Mono
30 Synth Poly
7 Textures
50 Multi patches
PRICE: €4.90 / 75% OFF
(NORMAL PRICE €19.90)

64% off “Synthwave Drums” by Beatskillz

Step Back In Time – A Vintage 80’s Drum Machine Plugin!
The 80s defined the era of Synthesizers and Drum Machines. This is the time when great musicians suddenly had electronic instruments at their disposal, and a new genre of music evolved. Certain drum machines defined and made the 80s sound instantly recognizable.

The Drum Sound That Defined the 80’s – Locked & Loaded!
Often when you buy emulations or samples of just the drum machines, the sounds are too raw and sound nothing like the sounds of the genre.These drum sounds came from early samplers and analog synthesis. Romplers/Samplers were 8 and 12 bit and made any sample put into them sound “unique” and it did not sound like the original recording.
Lower sample rates of 10-22khz and early D/A converters also played an important role in defining the Drum Machine Sound!
