01Overview

AZS Spice Vol.3 for DUNE 3 is the third volume in the Spice series, developed by Resonance Sound for the DUNE 3 engine. The pack contains 122 presets built around the synth's analogue emulation, wavetable and FM capabilities. The developer describes an emphasis on cinematic and re-interpreted retro sounds. Many presets respond to modwheel and velocity or aftertouch, and effects are used with restraint so the sounds can be dropped into a project as they are or shaped further.

Sound Palette and Preset Breakdown

The pack is organized by sound type. It includes 18 bass presets, 14 chord, FX and drum patches, 39 drone and pad sounds, and 30 arpeggios and sequences. A final group of 21 lead, pluck and keyboard patches rounds out the collection.

The developer notes that effects were applied judiciously, with some sounds carrying a light touch and others relying on effects as essential parts of the sound. This makes the presets usable straight out of the box or as a starting point for your own mix.

Modulation and Playability with DUNE 3

Modwheel programming is set up on the vast majority of the sounds, and many presets respond to velocity or aftertouch. This gives expressive control over filter movement and dynamics when playing live or sequencing parts.

The pack includes an Ableton Live project file and MIDI from the audio demo. You can recreate the demo parts, drop them into your songs, or use them as a springboard for new ideas.
