Soundiron releases Sick II for Kontakt

14th November 2011 - KVR Audio News

Soundiron recently released Sick II for Kontakt, which builds on their Sick I collection (that has also been re-released). Designed with Halloween in mind, these libraries are handy chunks of audio hell. Each one explores a sub-theme in horror.

Sick II ($13) is a one-stop-shop for eerie and disturbing paranormal sound-design, including subterranean clanks, booms, thuds, cracks, drags, stomps, steps, creaks and thumps in the darkness; demonic creature howls, moans, breaths and growls; hellish and twisted soundscapes, pads, drones and ambiances; and a variety of terrifyingly vivid EVP recordings (some of them quite real).

There is a fully fleshed out metal and stone impact percussion section captured in a crumbling abandoned naval artillery bunker and decommissioned war ship, as well as near and distant zombie wails, moans, cries and heaving, seething breaths captured deep in the reverberant bowels of the earth. There is also a wide variety of creeping ambiences, drones, soundscapes, transmissions, voices, and EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomenon) messages from the other side.

All in all, there are over 350 horror sound effects and sound beds. There's also a full compliment of FX and performance controls for each instrument and our custom convolutions and "ubberpeggiator" system.

Specs:

38 Kontakt patches (unlocked).
351 Samples.
490 MB Installed.
16 Custom Convolution IR Files.
24bit / 44.1kHz stereo PCM wav samples (non-unencrypted).

Sick I ($7) is back and grosser than gross. This library was designed to induce vomiting. Made almost entirely of ripping flesh, exploding innards, smashed skulls, the ravings of frothing lunatics and the horrific screams, cries, pleas and agonizing death throws of tortured mindless souls, this library is a one-way ticket to hell in a convenient bite-size package. The company has added a set of new soundscapes and ambiances, full performance controls, FX and reverb convolutions for the user's sick pleasure. Over 200 brutal horror effects and beds.
