03In depth

Atmospheric Sounds for Dark Techno and Ambient Tracks

Beat describes the collection as built around atmosphere. The programs range from wafting pads to intimate, whispered voices and textures that rumble in the low end. Developer Beat says the sounds can add musical depth to Techno and Ambient tracks and suit image-driven work that calls for intense textures.

Because the pack is organized as 64 keygroup programs, you can layer several textures in a single arrangement or use one sound as a background bed. The audio previews make it quick to find the right character before committing a program to your project.
