Product Overview

Auras delves into abstract and impressionistic soundscapes, offering a collection of sonic sculptures that are formless yet expressive. This library is designed for use with MIDI keyboards and controllers, particularly those supporting MPE technology, allowing for nuanced control over sound shaping on a per-note basis.

Details

The library features over 60 curated multi-layered instruments, crafted to inspire creativity and exploration. Each patch is designed to be manipulated intuitively, with a minimal GUI that facilitates quick adjustments to sound parameters. The COLOURS environment expands on this, providing over 100 patches for users to create and customize unique textures easily.

Auras emphasizes performance and movement, using a variety of source materials such as strings, synths, winds, and field recordings. This approach results in a dynamic sound landscape that ranges from delicate and fragile to chaotic. The integration of deep MIDI control allows for expressive sound design, making it suitable for contemporary scoring contexts where atmosphere and texture are paramount.
