Sound Character and Ambient Textures

Tracktion describes Obsidian as an ambient collection. The 100 presets cover a broad range of sounds, including hypnotic soundscapes, dense textures, resonant bass, warped FX, ethereal voices, lush pads and twisted instruments.

The developer positions the pack as a source of high-quality, expressive sounds for composing for film or building downtempo tracks. Because the presets are described as evolving and morphing, they suit layered arrangements where sounds need to change over time.

XY Pad Control in BioTek

The presets are designed to exploit the XY pad in BioTek, giving hands-on control over how the sounds evolve and morph. Tracktion says this tactile approach lets you shape a sound in real time rather than only through static parameter settings.

The XY pad control is the main workflow feature of the pack, so it is the first thing to try when auditioning the presets.
