This soundset explores the sonic boundaries of Thorn to the maximum, covering a wide range of sounds from evolving pads, exciting overtone textures and complex drones to gritty rhythmical sequences in different time signatures, expressive keys, pluck and lead sounds, punchy basses, beautiful and otherworldly soundscapes and some experimental textures hard to describe with words.

For this library, all wavetables, samples, single-cycle waveforms and shapes for the harmonic filter were created from scratch, either by re-synthesizing dedicated samples or manually within Thorn's editors. Many patches use tempo-synced modulations for filter, amplitude, panning and oscillator effects, all presets have the modulation wheel assigned enabling the user to deeply interact with the sounds, many presets also use aftertouch and velocity as a modulation source.

You can view/download the PDF for this library with more details, the licence agreement and the patchlist including desccriptions for each patch here.

Specs:

• *115 patches (including 3 variations).
  *384 MB of samples (48 kHz/24 Bit) used in Thorn's Noise-oscillator embedded inside the patches.
  *All presets have the modulation wheel assigned, many also use aftertouch and velocity as a modulation source.
  *Delivery: download.
  *Price: € 30 EUR.
