Add A Squeaky Gate To Your Productions

FrozenPlain has released Squeaky Gate which they describe as a curious instrument for soundtracks, atmosphere, or adding a unique edge to any genre. This is what they have to say about it...

Ever opened a squeaky metal gate and thought, "I want to use that sound in my music"? Well, now you can! Various metal gate squeaks were recorded, cleaned and processed to make this genuinely useful sound-design sample library. Each sample is available as an 'instrument' inside our sample-based-synth VST/AU engine, Mirage – included for free. You'll also find 40 presets, including plucks, pads, basses and leads, ideal for soundtracks, atmosphere or adding a unique edge to any genre. The resonation caused by the gate hinges produced a surprisingly clean and consistent tone – almost similar in character to a cello.

Most of the samples were put through a granular synth to lengthen them. As part of this, it was possible to capture both soft and intense versions of the same sound. You can smoothly modulate between these 2 states using Mirage's dynamics knob, allowing for expressive performances.
