400 dark cinematic patches for Dark Zebra 2 available on August 4th at https://www.luftrum.com/

“He knew all the buyers, fixers, bagmen and police. And yet, if there was one thing he had learned in this line of business – the underlying rule – always work alone...

”Navigating this web of intrigue takes a certain personality – where rules are meant to be broken. Meet Rogue, for the Dark Zebra, an adrenaline-fueled soundset collection built for thrill-seekers and those not afraid to delve into the heart of the shadowy unknown.

Rogue draws heavily from suspenseful, action-driven scores. Sometimes subtle, often times brutal, but always with a knack for the unexpected. Rogue is the perfect sound palette for painting pictures of high-stakes car chases, adrenaline-fueled escapes, or heart-pounding stealth missions in the city's labyrinth of shadow-laden backstreets.

The focus of this set centers around fast-paced rhythmic elements from distorted, harrowing basslines and blistering atonal percussion loops which punctuate the silence. These elements are accompanied by gripping sound effects, warped pulses and distorted sequences, dramatic impacts, and captivating drum hits, as well as moody cinematic synths, pads, and atmospheres.

Rogue captures the intensity of modern scores, delivering a gritty, action-driven, and immersive cinematic experience. Influences include Atli Örvarsson (Silo), Ben Salisbury and Geoff Barrow (Archive 81),  Tyler Bates and Joel J. Richard (John Wick Chapter 4), Gustavo Santaolalla (The Last of Us), and last but not least Hans Zimmer and Benjamin Wallfisch 
(Bladerunner 2049, Dune). 

Whether you're looking to score your next high-octane action movie or simply want to add a pulsing edge to your music, look no further, Rogue is your ultimate ally.

The installation of the set is a 1-click install via drag & drop: Simply grab the soundset file and drop it directly onto the user interface of Zebra, and the soundset along with all NKS files, will be installed. The set is fully NKS compatible for users of Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol hardware. There’s a PDF guide included on how to install.

Each preset makes heavy use of Zebra's X/Y pads and the modwheel for maximum sonic potential. Complex modulation routings ensure lively, organic and vibrant timbres. Generous amounts of headroom are held in reserve so you can craft in confidence.

TAL-Pha Silica
Release date 11/22/24
Available at https://www.luftrum.com/silica-soundset-for-tal-pha/

-------------------
We are excited to introduce Silica, a soundset for TAL-Pha, featuring 150 carefully sculpted patches inspired by the retro-futuristic sounds of the mid-80s, combined with a modern, cinematic twist.

So, what is TAL-Pha you may ask? It’s a faithful emulation of the Roland Alpha Juno II, an iconic analog synth released in 1985, with the MKS-50 as its rack version. The synth was used by artists like Orbital, Vince Clarke, Faithless, Massive Attack, The Prodigy, Howard Jones and many more.

TAL-Pha offers the classic analog sound of the hardware, but is further enhanced with modern flexibility and many additional features (it even reads sysex from the hardware).

In Silica, you will find everything from animated synth arpeggios to fat bass lines and basses, supported by lush pads and a wide selection of vibrant poly synths and keyboard sounds, that evoke the sounds of the mid-80s. There’s also a selection of hybrid drum loops, soundscapes and sound effects. The result is a versatile collection designed to be instantly usable, with no fillers, just authentic, character-rich synth goodness, that works equally well for retro-inspired productions or cutting-edge modern media.

Influences include classic artists of yesteryear, such as Vince Clarke, OMD, Howard Jones, Fluke, FSOL, and The Prodigy, with strong ties to today’s modern composers such as Mac Quayle (Mr. Robot), Cliff Martinez (Neon Demon), and Lorne Balfe (Ghost in the Shell).

We have teamed up with TAL to bring you 10% discount on TAL-Pha. With your Silica purchase, you will receive a code that can be used to get 10% off TAL-Pha, but the code isn’t limited to TAL-Pha, you can also use it to save on other TAL products.

November 22: TAL Software is having a Black Friday sale with 20% off their products. This discount stacks with the 10% that comes with Silica, so you can get a total of 30% off by using the code included with Silica – but only for a very limited time!
