Sonuscore Nordic Spheres Crossgrade TTEX (Digital product)

Frozen Soundscapes for Owners of Time Textures Expanded

Nordic Spheres Crossgrade TTEX is a crossgrade license to Nordic Spheres, intended for owners of Time Textures Expanded. Nordic Spheres is a Sonuscore KONTAKT instrument that combines sound effects content, granular synthesis and percussive sounds into enormous, frozen soundscapes with an unpolished, ambient character. The tonal and non-tonal source material was assembled together with Mats Lundgren and Amina Hocine from Pole Position in Sweden. It is the sonic sibling of Time Textures and Chroma.

Grain Engines and Sample Layers

A texture is built from four layers. The two upper layers are Grain Engines with Tonal, Tonal Effects, Non-Tonal Effects and Looping sounds, where density, start position and timing shape the grains. The two lower layers are traditional sample engines for Hits, Particles and Sustains. Every layer has its own ADSR, an arpeggiator or LFO and FX options including EQ, saturation, chorus and tremolo, and the Motion options tie the layers and effects to the mod wheel to change the timbre in real time.

Who Is It For

This crossgrade suits composers and producers who already work with Time Textures Expanded and want to experiment with both sound design and music. More than 200 presets cover cold ambiences, pulsing textures and dark atmospheres for modern cinematic, game and media scoring.
