Sound Character and Textures

Wired focuses on bit-reduced synth tones with a murky, tape-like character. The developer says the sounds are built from vintage and modular analog synthesizers, which gives them a slightly imperfect, organic feel.

The instrument is aimed at ambient and dream pop style production. Slow, shifting textures suit intros, transitions and background layers, while melodic patches can carry a track on their own.

Presets and Workflow in Soundbox

Wired runs in the free Audiomodern Soundbox engine, so you load it as a Soundbox instrument within a supported DAW. The collection includes 40 multi-layered presets, and all of them are unlocked, so you can open each one and adjust its layers.

Because the presets are multi-layered, they work as starting points for building your own textures rather than as single fixed sounds.
