The collection contains 105 presets across several categories, including basses, pads, leads, plucks and sequences. The developer positions the pack for melodic house and techno, with sounds that also fit related genres such as deep house.

Sound Range and Preset Categories

The pack is organized into six categories: 29 basses, 16 pads, 12 synths, 10 leads, 13 plucks, 9 sequences, 7 keys, 6 atmospheres and 3 FX sounds. Resonance Sound describes the bass sounds as deep, heavy and warm, ranging from percussive hits to long, moving basslines. The leads run from dirty and dark to bright and soft. Pads are described as pulsating and creamy, and the atmospheres as evolving. The keys category includes bell, guitar and organ sounds.

Because the sounds are split into clear categories, producers can start from a bass, pad or lead and build out a track from there.

Modwheel Control and Diva Preset Browser

Each preset has modwheel allocation already set up. The developer says this lets you change several facets of a sound with one control, which is useful for live tweaking and performance.

The presets also use the preset browser built into Diva, which applies automatic tagging. Tags make it faster to find a preset that fits a specific role in a track.
