Sound Categories in the Technocracy Preset Pack

The pack is split into 25 basses, 17 keys and stabs, 15 arpeggiators, 7 leads, 7 percussion sounds, 6 polysynths, 12 ambient textures and 12 effects. That breakdown makes it easy to find a starting point for a specific element of a track, whether you need a bassline, a stab or a rhythmic sequence.

The developer says the sounds take inspiration from a journey between Detroit and Berlin, moving from warehouse and factory spaces to the club dance floor. Its stated aim is fresh material for dance music producers working across several techno substyles.

Using the Presets With Ultra-Analog VA-3 or AAS Player

The sound bank requires the Ultra-Analog VA-3 synthesizer. After installation, the Reverence bank is added to Ultra-Analog VA-3 automatically if the synth is present on your computer.

If you do not own Ultra-Analog VA-3, you can still play the presets through the free AAS Player plug-in or standalone application.
