Sound Character and Preset Range

The developer describes the pack as gritty, nasty, dirty and untamed hardstyle sounds, and says it draws inspiration from artists such as Coone, Sub Zero Project, Blasterjaxx and Headhunterz.

The library covers a broad set of categories. Basses include psy, dub, sub, glitched, arp, smooth and Reese styles. Leads range from metallic and old-school dark techno to aggressive, light and magical. Pads span dreamy to suspenseful and mysterious. Supporting sounds include keys, organs, cymbals and strings.

Working with Babylon 1 Presets

Babylon is a one-page synth with multiple oscillators, FM, RM and AM modulation, five poly effects (drive, distortion, saturation, crush and LoFi), and 12 curve types for ADSR and filter programming. These presets use that architecture, so most parameters can be adjusted.

This pack is an expansion for Babylon 1 and is not compatible with Babylon 2.
