Vicious Antelope releases "Anti Softness" free Omnisphere 2 soundbank
Vicious Antelope has released Anti Softness, a free soundbank for Spectrasonics Omnisphere 2 featuring 40 atmospheric pads created exclusively with saw and square waves as their base.
These are the presets from VA's Softness soundbank with the sines replaced with sawtooth and square waveforms. This leads to a crispier texture, although they keep their atmospheric timbral dimension. Using an additional saturation, distortion or waveshaper plugin (or even use the corresponding sections and effect devices of Omnisphere 2) could lead to a more edged sound.
The reverb for all patches is in the Aux section of the effect rack. A nice way to give the sounds more dense and thicker space dimension is to add a chamber reverb on it. This will give a dose of lush ambient background with clarity. It is advised to turn Omnisphere's reverb off lowering the Aux Send slider on the common effects section in such situation.
MW is adding vibrato while with aftertouch you could modulate the pitch of the sounds.
Patches were created with Omnisphere 2.8 and run best with this or newer edition:
- Software 2.8.4d.
- Soundsources v2.6.1c.
- Patches v2.8.1c.
