Soundiron Blazer - Retro Anime FXBlazer captures all of the flavor and punch of that classic anime sci fi sound of the '70s and '80s. This mighty collection of playable synths and sound design elements has been lovingly-crafted to tap into the funky vibe of that first golden wave of Japanese animated science fiction television that so many of us grew up on. This 5GB astro-futuristic instrument and sound design collection comes packed with dozens of unique trans-galactic synths and lushly harmonious cosmo pads, spanning a variety of iconic styles inspired by our favorite old school mecha battle hymns and space opera anthems. Every synth pad is richly detailed with character and nuance, showing reverence to the vintage sounds of yesterday, while blasting its way into the infinite tomorrow. Blazer also includes a cool library of HiFi and Lofi sound design elements, with hundreds of sounds that are equally as perfect for creative stingers, drums and percussion as they are for retro animation foley and effects. The sharp high-fidelity sounds are powerful and sleek, while the intentionally distressed and degraded Lofi sounds are packed with plenty of crunch and soul. SFX categories include: Energy particles, bubbles, beams, fireballs, and blasts; Bright, dark, high, low, fast and slow laser blade shwings; Clothy, zingy, electric, springy, swirly, and magical swooshes; Speeder, hovership, mech, star ship, and space fighter vehicle engines and fly-bys. The Kontakt interface includes a suite of automation-ready sound-shaping controls to give you total creative flexibility. You have control over swell, attack, release, offset, vibrato, filter, pitch (coarse & fine), articulation switching, cross-fading and layering, and so much more. This library comes with an adaptable LFO system, with selectable LFO shape, modulation target parameter, speed, intensity, tempo-syncing and fade-in time. You can also apply your choice of 12 lowpass, high-pass and FX filters, with assignable modulation targets such as velocity, modwheel, expression, after-touch, key position and step-sequencer table control. Our customizable arpeggiator offers a velocity table and control over arp direction, timing, swing, randomization and duration. We've included a key and scale lock system to constrain your notes to common scales and keys for easy melodic composition and live performance. The interface is rounded-out by our modular FX rack panel, with 27 different DSP effect modules that you can assign in any of 8 available slots, in any order that you wish. You'll find classic phaser, flanger, delay, distortion, amp and cab simulators, compressors, EQ, rotator and so much more. The Reverb effect includes our favorite convolution reverb impulse responses, including 99 different rooms, halls, chambers and outdoor environments, plus another 40 custom FX impulses to radically transform the sound and open up whole new worlds of musical possibility. We've added a great bank of FX rack chain factory presets to get you started. Listen to demos of Blazer on Soundcloud Product Specs: Hundreds of anime sci-fi sound effects inspired by 1970s-80s TV, recorded in low & high fidelity.
