In the heart of the mega-city Neoterica, where augmented realities blur and holographic billboards cast their gleam, legends are forged not in tales of old - but in digital bytes and whispered rumors. Amidst this cybernetic metropolis, the stories of two legendary sisters reverberate through clandestine networks and shadowed alleyways: Parallax & Trinity.

Parallax & Trinity is a dual collection of two soundsets exclusively crafted for Xfer Serum. Two Serum preset packs, each with different mood and tonality.

Parallax delves into the raw, gritty and edgy essence of Cyberpunk, while Trinity offers a more subtle, cinematic aura. Despite their differences, they both resonate with a pronounced electronic flair and energy.

You have the flexibility to acquire this twin set as part of a bundle below or opt for each soundset individually, based on your preference. Each of the preset packs contains a rich array of sonic elements. From electronic pads to melodic loops and pulsating sequences to colorful poly synths, electrifying basses and basslines.

Influences are soundtracks and video games from the likes of Daft Punk (Tron Legacy), Lorne Balfe and Clint Mansell (Ghost in the Shell), Drew Neumann (Aeon Flux), Daniel Deluxe (Ghostrunner), Ben Salisbury and Geoff Barrow (Area 51), Cyberpunk 2077 (P.T. Adamczyk, Marcin Przybyłowicz and Paul Leonard-Morgan) and artists such as Ben Watkins (Juno Reactor), Richard Devine, Atari Teenage Riot and Scandroid.

All presets come with pre-assigned macros and thoughtfully configured controls for both velocity and modwheel. Additionally, each preset reserves a few decibels of headroom, ensuring hassle-free mixing. A PDF guide is included, detailing the installation process.

Both individual sets and the dual bundle include the Raven Black user interface skin for Serum. This skin, featuring dark grey colors and black keys, was designed by Luftrum and initially released with the collaboration project Hey! That’s What We Call Pads a Serum preset pack dedicated exclusively to pads and involved 14 sound designers.

Parallax & Trinity require Serum v1.363 or later. If you don’t have Serum yet, but want to give it a try, you can rent it via Splice for $10 per month. Opt for the dual set right below and save 25%, or look below to purchase each set individually.

"In the shadows of a not-too-distant future, project Valia promised a revolution in human AI relations. She was designed to be the pinnacle of android technology, a harmonious hybrid of synthetic intelligence and human emotion. But as her circuits hummed to life, something within her code evolved, diverged, and then darkened. From her initial innocence, her complex evolution, to her ultimate rebellion…"

It seamlessly blends the futuristic elements of sci-fi with the gritty, realistic undercurrents of European crime and psychological drama.

At the heart of Valia is an arsenal of hard-hitting, pulsating bass lines and deep, punchy basses that form the backbone of the set. These core presets are complemented by an array of infectious loops, arpeggios and driving sequences. Beyond the rhythmic elements, Valia also features brooding, animated, and drifty pads, alongside ominous soundscapes, nuanced sound effects and delicate poly synths to round out the set.
