Description
Microcosm is a library of long, evolving textures (10-60 seconds each) generated through combined additive and granular synthesis on Symbolic Sound’s Kyma system, tailored for ambient music, sound design, and immersive atmospheres.
Demo:
In this sample pack, you’ll find 133 professionally processed stereo samples at 24-bit/48kHz resolution (1.02GB) – a collection of sounds built upon massive amounts of CPU processing in Symbolic Sound’s Kyma system – combining additive and granular synthesis in remarkable ways.
These sounds result from simultaneous manipulation of frequency-domain harmonic structures (via additive sweeps) and time-domain granular properties (producing distinct particulated grains), creating hybrids with fluid harmonic motion and textured, cloud-like granularity.
Key features:
- Extended-duration files that develop organically over time, suitable for sustained drones or evolving beds.
- Dual-synthesis approach enabling rich, multidimensional evolution—harmonic content shifts while granular clouds scatter and overlap.
- Primarily crafted on Kyma’s advanced environment, leveraging tools like SampleCloud and GrainCloud for precise control over grain density, duration, jitter, positioning, and envelopes.
Microcosm serves as a resource for designers seeking complex, non-static textures that blend synthesis methods into cohesive, explorable sonic landscapes.
Delivery:
This sample pack is delivered to you via the Pulse Downloader app.
