VST Buzz has launched the Shadows instrument library for Kontakt, a new Vault collection title that allows you to combine and crossfade between up to 4 different soundsources to create dark, sinister and foreboding pads, drones and soundscapes.
2.2GB of content from synthesisers was recorded, then mangled and transformed into both simple and complex sounds to be used within the engine. These can then be combined in the 4 part engine, and using the XY pad to cross fade between each of the sounds, you can create organic, deep and menacing sounds.
The library was inspired by composers like Trent Reznor & Atticus Ross, Hildur Guðnadóttir, John Carpenter and many more.
Choose from 232 individual sound sources from a variety of different sound categories, each varying in attack and timbre.
