One Sample Thirty Patches Vol.1 introduces our first soundbank series for Spectrasonics Omnisphere 2. For each of those libraries I use only one custom sample to create new sounds. In this my sample was an open 6th E string from my Les Paul electric guitar which was passed through a vintage guitar AMP.

For all of the presets the tune of the synth is adjusted to minus 4 semitones so the guitar sample matches the keyboard.

The presets include many different types from epic basses to calm keys and from futuristic synths to evolving pads.

An Epic Poem is an epic distorted synth with majestic character and crispy attack. Bell is an experimental poly with a bell ring in the higher frequencies. Calm Desires is an emotional mellow pad with movement and Dark Beast is an analog sounding gloomy patch. Epic Bass could be the brother preset of An Epic Poem with its elevated sonic characteristics. Flews has a plucky attack with some strange things happening on the release stage. Keyboard is a conventional electric piano and Nostalgia brings memories from the past.

Sci-Fi Temper is hollow and spiritual while Tales is dominating the frequency region with its full colored sound. Talking Bass is a moving resonant retro electric piano. The Skies is an experimental atmospheric synth with bright ingredients.

You could listen to all presets included in the video below.

Moving to the effects section we have a common spring reverb for all patches. I may be a traditional guy sometimes when I choose reverb for an electric guitar – the characteristic of a spring one has this classic vibe. This reverb is placed in the Aux channel. Also a tube limiter is added in the last device of the effects section to add some classy coloration to the sound. In general, the effects play very important role in the resulted timbres.

Those patches enclose a deep cinematic character and they could be used in many genres like rock, metal, progressive rock, avant-garde, experimental, ambient, electronica and other.

Patches were created with Omnisphere 2.8 and run best with this or newer edition
