01Overview

Chaos Expansion Pack is a collection of 100 presets built for Portal, Output's granular effects processor. The presets focus on spatial sound design, rhythms that have been spliced and reshaped, pitched and glitched delays, and heavily time-stretched or fragmented textures. The developer credits musicians and sound designers Richard Devine and Anthony Baldino with creating the pack. Because it is an expansion, it does nothing on its own: you need a licensed copy of Portal to load and run it.

Spatial and Glitched Sound Design with Portal Presets

Output says the presets are designed to produce immersive spatial sound design and heavy time manipulation. The pack leans toward effects that break a sound apart, including spliced rhythms and pitched and glitched delays. These are useful when a sound needs to shift from clean to disrupted in a short space of time.

All 100 presets are included in the Chaos Expansion Pack, so you can start from a finished setting and adjust it rather than building each effect from scratch. The collection gives you a range of starting points across the spatial and glitch-oriented end of Portal's capabilities.

Who the Chaos Expansion Pack Is For

The pack suits producers and sound designers who already use Portal and want more ready-made options for experimental or textural work. Typical applications include processing drums and percussion, creating effects for electronic productions, and adding destructive movement to pads, vocals or loops.

If you do not own Portal, this pack will not work on its own. Check that you hold a licensed copy before buying, since the expansion depends on it.
