Black Octopus Sound presets Event Horizon - 128 high quality presets for John Bowen Solaris created by Toby Emerson.  This soundset offers everything from huge epic pads, long evolving textures, vintage analog style sounds, deep thundering basses, and many other classic leads and keyboard style sounds.

The John Bowen Solaris is simply one of the most fantastic instruments I have ever worked with.  Everything about it screams class.  From amazing sounding filters to countless oscillator types,  I feel after several months of using it I still have not even scratched the surface.  The architecture and programming behind it allows for huge sounds which can range from very organic and analog sounding to crisp and precise digital style sounds.  The sound quality of this synthesizer is absolutely exceptional and I would highly recommend this synthesizer to any sound designer or professional musician that can budget for it.

All patches are mapped with the joystick controlling the filters.  They are best auditioned by leaving the joystick in the middle position and then adjusting it to taste. 

I have spent several months creating these patches for the Solaris users and offer them as a free download.  However if you feel like they are of value to you I would love a donation or please pick up one of our sample packs as a way to say thanks and to support the creation of future sounds.
