Bitwig has announced the release of a new sound package in collaboration with BASTL Instruments.

Glazmo Transmissions by sound designer and multidisciplinary artist Oliver Torr contains a collection of clips and presets for Bitwig devices and FX chains.

The raw material for the package — mutant synth sounds, odd ambiances, etc. — Torr generated and/or processed with BASTL INSTRUMENTS gear, sampled from forgotten electronics he gleaned from flea markets, or recorded in arcane locations like urban sewers and haunted caves. These he sorted into a collection of extraterrestrial Drum Machines, slimy Sampler presets, and Grid patches full of audible rust and patina.

The result is a unique, bold assortment of presets and clips that can emit textured drones and glitchy sound FX as well as more traditional leads, keys and basses — all with Torr’s and BASTL INSTRUMENTS’ special twist.

Glazmo Transmissions features

  • 72 presets for Drum Machine, Sampler, The Grid, Convolution & other audio FX.
  • 66 note clips.
  • 16 impulses and 9 wavetables by BASTL INSTRUMENTS designers.
  • 315 samples of glitchy SFX, ambient field recordings, and synth leads, keys, basses, etc.

Glazmo Transmissions is available to owners of a Bitwig Studio license with an active Upgrade Plan. It can be downloaded via the Package Manager in Bitwig Studio.
