Preset Categories in the Aftermath Sound Bank

The bank contains 149 presets across seven categories. Basses account for 21 presets, leads for 17 and pads for 23. Plucked sounds number 25, while chords and stabs and gated sounds have eight presets each.

The remaining 49 presets are special effects. The developer describes these as ranging from hyperrealistic textures to orchestral and unsettling sounds, which suits film, game and sound design work.

Because the presets are grouped by category, you can browse by role in your arrangement, whether you need a bass line, a pad bed or a percussive pluck.
