Plughugger has introduced an experimental soundset for the Omnisphere 2 virtual instrument by Spectrasonics. Based on the sound of making coffee, Coffee – Espresso Edition features 207 presets based around recordings of a Philips Easy Cappuccino coffee maker.
Sounds of the machine warming up, brewing and grinding. Plughugger recorded hits striking the metallic drip tray, ceramic cups, plastic canisters, bags of beans with different objects. Apart from recording the coffee maker, Plughugger also recorded the sounds from a cheap grinder and the electro-magnetic fields using SOMA Ether and LOM microphones.
The style of the soundset is mainly cinematic with massive hits, scary textures and percussive sequences, but it covers a wide scope of genres. It’s mellow ambient, it’s pop with edgy bass sounds, it even at times touches on the dystopian techno sound of The Future Sound of London.

- 36 arpeggios & sequences.
- 32 effects.
- 13 drums & percussion.
- 11 pads and strings.

Regularly priced 24.90 EUR, Coffee – Espresso Edition is on sale for the intro price of 9.90 EUR with coupon code ARABICA at the checkout. The offer expires August 4th, 2024.
