A new sound library is born providing new high quality sounds every day.
If sampling is like a photography, sound synthesis is like a painting. The Modular Piano is an oil portrait of a never existed piano; an illusion of reality, aware of the illusion.

While programming my first library I ran into the need to have an acoustic piano sound. Since I don’t have a real piano to sample, I decided to synthesize it from scratch using “traditional” subtractive synthesis technique. This is my first good result and has been achived only by using basic oscillators, filters and so on. The only downside...

Using genetics to make music is very fun. During my researches I found that genetics algorithms are often used to create evolving patterns but, unfortunately, they do not sounds very musical. My approach is to program some Reaktor ensembles using simple yet musically effective genetic tricks to achive evolving rhythms and music patterns. View the full project...

The Stethosphone is an “alternative” miking tool built using a couple of electret mic capsules mounted inside a cheap stethoscope. This instrument is very useful in order to experiment with surface recording from any object and it is good even as new way to record instruments such as guitars, drums and so on. See more on Behance...

Technically speaking, this lead is very simple to achive (is a sync-based lead) and do not require particular skills to program it. This lead can be extremely metallic and “spacey” but it requires realtime controls to play...

To make this sound i’ve recorded a slow boiling sauce, then downpitched by two octaves without retaining the sample length. The sound was then processed by denoising, boosting of interesting frequencies (such as boil pops), compression and ambience has been added through various reverbs and granular processors. A lot of further boosting was needed to...
