Favorite Quote: 
Summer, Saisho-in
 
The evening bell, solemn and bronze
In the grandfather temple down the hill, sounds dimly here.
Slow beat of the mountain’s heart perhaps,
or determined pulse of pine tree (gift of the birds)
growing out of a crotch of the slippery monkey tree. 
All one, perhaps— 
Bell, mountain, tree…
And steady cicada vibrato
And little white dog
And quiet artist-priest, carver of Noh masks, 
fashioning a bamboo crutch for the ancient peach tree—
Symbol of strength, symbol of concern. 
All cool under nodding crowns of the vertical forest. 
all seeking in this place, 
all finding in this place—
Hidden yet open to all—
the spirit in the cedar’s heart. 
 
Advice for the DJs, producers, and artists of our community: We’re all in this together. Uplifting every individual in our community uplifts us all.

From organic origins to reimagined textures

Violan for Padshop 2 continues the groundbreaking orchestral FX string expansion series, reimagining the viola as a powerful cinematic sound design tool. By transforming traditional articulations and percussive strikes on the instrument’s top plate, pegs, and bridge, Violan delivers an extraordinary palette of textures that go far beyond the concert stage.

Inside, you’ll find evolving pads, re-synthesized comps, chromatic percussion, and a wide range of orchestral FX including risers, glissandi, and clusters. These are paired with dark soundscapes and rhythmic suites of strings and percussive elements, offering endless inspiration for tension, atmosphere, and movement.

Perfectly suited for science fiction, epic thrillers, and horror, Violan empowers sound designers, film scorers, and trailer composers with apocalyptic intensity and ethereal beauty—unlocking new dimensions of creativity.
