Analog Synth Sound Design Library

US Resomonics releases Refraction for Kontakt      26/02/19

Resomonics tells us that Refraction is an inspiring Analog based Synth Sound Design library, containing everything from Deep Synth Bass to lush evolving Ambient Pads and short Analog Synths to complex Pulses & Rhythm’s. They say that it contains over 250 designed snapshots utilising the Analog samples and has a highly flexible interface with a multitude of tools for shaping your own sounds, rhythms, pulses and arpeggiations.

A spokesperson told us, "You can layer up to 3 different sounds which can be selected from Long, Short and Sustained categories, and can also be chosen randomly, either per layer or all 3 layers together. This can be a great way to get started, putting together combinations you wouldn’t have thought to."

Refraction includes just over 3.5GB of samples taken mainly from a Korg EX800 analogue synth from 1984 (Desktop version of the Poly 800), with a few samples from a Casio HT-3000 from 1987 (whilst not Analog VCO’s it has an analog filter which was used in all sounds). All of the samples were recorded through a tube/valve preamp to add more warmth to the sound, and every note over 4 octaves was recorded to ensure the character of the sound was captured. Some samples were also recorded through a hardware analog filter as well as the preamp.
