9th May 2018
Cinematique Instruments has announced the release of Ensemblia 2 Industria and Ensemblia 2 Elektronika - "Raw Industrial Percussion" and "Finest Electronica".
Ensemblia is a complex 7 track Multi Beat Engine equipped with hundreds of beats and single sounds. It enables the user to easily create a wide range of rhythms. By using its easy-to-use Live FX feature you can shape the beats in realtime.
Over the last few years Cinematique Instruments collected and recorded a huge amount of rude (and harsh) organic sounds which can easily be associated with an industrial setting. They did extensive recording sessions in a smithy where they captured a wide range of tools such as hammers, wrenches, metal bars, saw blades, cans and tins. Cinematique Instruments also recorded plates, drawers and bars of a huge kitchenette made of iron. Furthermore they collected sounds from a gigantic telescope and the corresponding labs and added noises of electric machines. Finally they created sound by manipulating, editing and processing various software and modular synthesizers.
The result is diverse and versatile. Aside from powerful and blasting beats you can just as easily create tiny metallic phrases as well as unique organic percussion. You can easily produce rude and raw drum loops as well as noisy steam textures. You can even generate industrial and technoid sounding beats or shuffled house loops made from domestic utensils.
With Ensemblia2 Industria you get about 200 predefined patterns divided into 8 categories: Slow Side, Reduced, Beats (from Light to Shuffled), Straight Forward, In da face, distorted and cacophony. Ensemblia 2 Industria provides 123 single sounds in five categories: Metallic, Forge, Industrial, Machines, Miscellaneous. In detail there are 15 strokes, 23 deep and low, 13 mid sized, 38 bright, 1 brushed, 4 eroded, 31 moving, 24 effects and 4 glitch sounds.
Over the last few years Cinematique Instruments also collected and recorded a huge amount of electronic as well as digital and noisy percussion sounds. They captured sounds from various drum machines such as the Roland TR-808, TR-909 and CR-78 and several vintage preset machines. In addition Cinematique Instruments created sounds by setting up synthesizers such as Roland Juno 60, Prophet 5, Korg MS-20, Moog Minimoog and modular synths. Finally they generated lots of sounds by editing, manipulating different sound sources with modular and software sound processors.
Beside the major genre of Electronica you get sounds and beats corresponding to Downtempo, Minimal, TripHop, House, Futurebass, Techno / Trance and Drum n Bass / Breakbeat.
