Sound Character and Processing

DHPlugins says the presets were extensively tweaked and processed using mainly hardware wavetable synthesizers, combined with software processing. The developer describes the result as heavyweight sounds driven hard by digital distortion.

Complex modulation is central to the pack. According to the developer, this produces bass riffs that are beastly yet organic, which suits dubstep, bass music and aggressive electronic styles.

What Is Inside the Pack

The expansion includes 65 presets for HALO-2 and 36 sample banks. The presets cover Reese basses, growling bass patches and stabs, giving you both ready-to-play patches and raw material to build your own sounds.

Because the pack is a HALO-2 expansion, the presets are designed to be loaded and edited inside the synth, so you can adjust the modulation and distortion to fit your track.
