03In depth

Sound Character and Macro Controls

The samples are processed through four macros labeled Tube, Age, Circuit and Expand. Together they change how each sound is colored, letting you move a part from clean and crisp toward saturated and worn without rebuilding it from scratch.

The Main FX section adds delay, reverb, modulation, low-cut and high-cut filtering, and a global bypass lets you compare the processed and dry sound quickly. Factory modifiers such as half-time, double-time, reverse and octave shifts give you quick rhythmic and pitch variations.

Edit Page, Sequencer and Custom Samples

The Edit Page offers waveform display, playback direction and speed options, four choke groups, start and end markers with snap to grid or transient, and pitch, fine, formant and pitch warp controls. These tools let you shape each sample in detail.

The Bloom Sequencer is designed for triggering and layering one-shots and looping phrases rather than traditional note sequences. You can also import up to 112 of your own samples and swap them at any time, which suits producers who want to combine their own material with the Bloom engine.
