01Overview

Ambient Textures is aimed at producers who want more atmospheric material inside KHORDS. Loopmasters Plugins built the pack from a mix of classic analogue and digital synths, then processed and effected the recordings into textured sources. The developer positions the sounds for ambient music as well as any production that needs a cinematic sound bed, including drum and bass, techno, dubstep and dark electro. The pack is designed to sit alongside KHORDS' stock samples rather than replace them.

Sound Character and Waveform Content

The pack contains 59 new waveforms split into three groups: 19 major chord sounds, 20 minor chord sounds and 20 root or open note sounds. Loopmasters Plugins describes the raw material as soothing and magical, with wispy atmospheres and dreamy pads as the main character. Because the waveforms are grouped by chord type and root notes, they give you a clear starting point for either harmonic pads or single-note textures.

The chord and root divisions make it easier to match a sound to a harmonic function in your arrangement. Major and minor chord sounds suit melodic or emotional pads, while the root and open note sounds work as drones or foundation layers under other parts.

Presets and Typical Use Cases

Ambient Textures includes 100 texture presets that use the new waveforms. The developer says the library is useful for ambient music, but also for cinematic sound beds in drum and bass, techno, dubstep and dark electro productions.

The presets are a practical way to audition the waveforms in context before you shape your own patches. They can serve as a base for layering with KHORDS' stock samples or as a finished texture when a track needs a touch of atmosphere.
