Luftrum has announced the release of a new sound library for the Omnisphere 2.8 virtual instrument from Spectrasonics. A collection of 150 presets, Luftrum Ambient 3 continues to explore the vast universe of ambient music, paying homage to both the pioneers and modern masters of the genre.
The set draws inspiration from Brian Eno, Jean-Michel Jarre, Klaus Schulze, and Vangelis, while also embracing the work of modern ambient artists like Jon Hopkins, Hilyard, Martin Stürtzer and Carbon Based Lifeforms. The influence extends to labels such as Ultimae, Valley View Records, and Synphaera, with a nod to the Japanese ambient scene too – bridging the gap between the sounds of the past and today’s expressions.
Each Omnisphere preset in the set is a microcosm of auditory artistry. Slow ambient pads that evolve and unfold over time, revealing subtle overtones and intricate patterns. Poly synths inspired by the forefathers of synth ambient, offering a delicate quality for crafting dreamy sequences. Rich immersive textures and deep drones that provide an introspective and serene atmosphere. Floating arpeggios that are narratives woven in notes, harmony and rhythm.
The soundset is priced $49 USD. You can get a 10% discount on this library (or any other purchase at Luftrum) by using promo code REKKERD at the checkout.
