Sound Character and Preset Categories

The collection covers the core elements of a modern beat or track. Earthshaking bass presets anchor low-end-heavy productions, while distinctive leads, expressive keys and lush pads cover melodic and harmonic layers.

The bank also includes drum hits that have been processed for the mix, so they can be used as part of a finished drum sound rather than starting from raw material. The developer describes the set as a way to add dynamic energy to a track, which fits the hip-hop, trap and electronic styles it targets.

Requirements and Playback Options

Low End Theory 2 is a sound bank for the Ultra Analog VA-3 synthesizer, which is sold separately. If you own Ultra Analog VA-3, the presets are added to it automatically after installation.

If you do not own Ultra Analog VA-3, the sounds can still be played through AAS Player, a free plug-in and standalone application. AAS Player is included with the purchase, so you can audition the presets without the synth.
