CableForce features 64 sounds for trance, house & hardtrance.

The second CFA set for ACE – 64 amazing trance sounds for the little cable-monster, hereby demonstrating again why it is the new reference among all vst-synths. Beautiful pluck sounds, outstanding key-synths, alongside with dynamic and massive leadsounds, together with pushing basses and amazing pads. This soundset shows just like the first one how incredible this synth is. This soundset focuses on trance, house and also hardtrance.

CableSphere features 64 sounds for ambient, minimal & EDM.

It’s arrived: CableSphere, the third CFA soundset for U-He ACE. This collection of carefully selected sounds includes smooth analog sounds, weird fx, groovy and straight sequences and, as a special: wavetable sounds! No, that’s absolutely right: due to it’s mapping generator ACE can use self-drawn wavetables, giving access to completely new sound facettes.

Both soundsets are available to purchase for 17,50 EUR excl. VAT each, or in a bundle of all three ACE soundsets (includes CableDance) for 40 EUR excl. VAT.

CFA Sound has also released CableDrum, a free collection of 32 sounds for minimal & tech-house.

This small soundset is mainly aligned on minimal and tech-house. It contains knocking drums & percussion, raw basses, a few exoctic groove-sequences and silky but also scruffy synthsounds. And the best at the end – it`s for free!

Massive might very well be one of Native Instruments’ most popular synths, which would explain the abundance of sound libraries for this particular instrument.

Most of these expansions are geared towards popular electronic music genres like trance, progressive, electro, etc., but CFA Sound’s Futured Episode 2 is a little different.

Here’s what the product page says:

This amazing soundset contains 100 epic athmospheres, velvet pads, evolving soundscapes and crystal synth-sounds. Ideal for ambient, chillout, filmscore and also for epic trance-athmos. Feed yur massive with this sounds, and you will see a new side of your massive. All Sounds coming with complete macro-control allocation for maximal usability and fast manipulations.

Check the audio demo below to get an idea of the range of sounds included in Futured Episode 2.

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

The sound set is available to purchase for 25 EUR, or bundled with Futured Episode 1 & 3 — which cater more to the styles I mentioned earlier, for 60 EUR excl. VAT.

So what do I think?

What a beautiful collection of sounds! You get a wide range of sounds, from sharp eerie atmospheres to lush plucked sounds to amazing organic pads.

Browsing the presets I found just about every single patch completely inspiring. The macro controls are mapped to useful parameters for easy and fast manipulation of the sounds.

In short, Futured Episode 2 delivers a collection of high quality, well designed sounds with a unique character.

KV331 Audio has announced the release of version 2.0 of SynthMaster, its flagship semi-modular software synthesizer for Windows.

The new version introduces layers, “analog”-modelled filters, massive modulation capabilities, additive/wavetable/wavescanning synthesis, rich wavetable content, 580 ready to use factory presets, a comprehensive preset browser and a skin/interface editor that allows the customization of SynthMaster’s user interface.

Changes in SynthMaster v2.0

• Layers: In SynthMaster 2.0, every voice consists of 2 layers. Each layer has its own Arpeggiator/Sequencer, 2 Oscillators, 2 Multimode filters, 4 Modulators, 4 ADSR Envelopes, 2 Multistage Envelopes, 2 LFOs, 4 KeyScalers and Distortion/LoFi/4 Band EQ effects.
• “Analog” filters: SynthMaster now sounds warmer with the addition of “analog” LP/HP/BP/BS filters modelled after the famous “Ladder” filter. Aside from those, 1/2/3/4 stage allpass and comb filters are new additions as well.
• “Wavetable/Wavescanning” oscillators: With the addition of Wavetable/wavescanning synthesis in SynthMaster 2,0, now it is possible to create very complex and evolving sounds using up to 16 wavetables and smoothly sequencing between them.
• Massive Modulation Capabilities: It is possible to modulate almost every continuous parameter in SynthMaster 2.0 using LFOs, Envelopes, KeyScalers, MIDI Velocity, MIDI Aftertouch or MIDI Controllers, which makes it possible to create very complex sounds with SynthMaster 2.0.
• Rich Wavetable Content: Aside from the 128 factory wavetables licensed from Galbanum, 330 user wavetables selected with permission from the publicly available Muz3um for Rapture patch set also comes with SynthMaster 2.0. For users that want more, they are free to import their own single cycle waveforms in WAV format as well.
• Rich Preset Content: To show the power of SynthMaster 2.0, a talented team of professional sound designers formed by Scot Solida, LeLotusBleu Sound Design, Xenos Soundworks, CFA-Audio, KV331 Audio’s own Teoman Pasinlioğlu, as well as fellow beta testers Ingonator and FragileX have created 580 ready to use presets in a wide range of genres/styles such as Ambient, Chillout, Dance, Disco, DnB, Electronica, HipHop, Pop, Rave and Trance.
• Preset Browser: With the addition of a preset browser users can now easily find the sound they’re looking for in SynthMaster 2.0 by filtering through instrument type, attributes, music style or author name.
• Skin Editor: SynthMaster 2.0 comes with its WYSIWYG skin editor which allows the users to easily customize the look of SynthMaster, or to create new skins with different layouts.
• Serial Number Copy Protection Only: Unlike the first version, SynthMaster 2.0 uses only serial number copy protection.

SynthMaster 2.0 is available at the introductory price of $59 USD until December 31, 2009 (regular price $99 USD). A demo version of SynthMaster 2.0 is available to download from the KV331 Audio website.
