Excerpts from the patchpool Iris subscription, Update Volume 1

[Sampleconstruct]

I have been asked so many times by people with a subription phobia if I could not release smaller portions of my Iris subscription-library. Today I gave in and released a first excerpt:



Best Of Iris Subscription Vol. 1 - Strings & Voices - 105 patches - 2.37 GB of samples.

This first library excerpt comprises sounds which are derived from samples of string instruments (plucked and bowed) like acoustic and electric guitars, violin, viola, cello, piano, psaltery, harps, oud, mandolin and bowed vibraphone samples. Then there are patches making use of orchestral samples recorded during rehearsals and performances of my own orchestral music and some backstage recordings and you will find vocal patches with samples of solo voices, vocal textures, field recordings of temple monks and nuns, crowds, kids and even a singing sikh.

All samples involved are embedded in the presets using the "Export"-function in the Iris Browser. After uncompressing the downloaded RAR-archive just drop the entire download folder into "Iris Library->Patches".

A PDF-list with the licence agreement and detailed patch descriptions is included in the download folder and can also be viewed here.

Specs:

• *105 Iris 1-patches - 2.37 GB of samples
  *19 Iris 2-patches
  *Delivery: download, RAR-archive in 2 parts for better download handling
  *Price (paypal): € 40 EUR

The demos below were made entirely with Iris only using patches from Best Of Iris Subscription Vol. 1

And here is the info for the second excerpt:

Best Of Iris Subscription Vol. 2 - Soundscapes, Drones & Pads - 154 patches - 3.79 GB of samples.

This second library excerpt comprises a wealth of ambient and cosmic soundscapes, huge and eerie drones, expressive synth sounds, surreal atmospheres derived from field and studio recordings, beautiful pads and some strange ambiences from a darker sonic universe.

All samples involved are embedded in the presets using the "Export"-function in the Iris Browser. After uncompressing the downloaded RAR-archive just drop the entire download folder into "Iris Library->Patches".

A PDF-list with the licence agreement and patch descriptions is included in the download folder and can also be viewed here.

This third library excerpt comprises sounds which are derived from processed and raw samples of percussion instruments like gongs, bells, singing bowls, vibraphone, bowed cymbals, Hang (percussion), waterphone, djembe, timpani, frame drum, chimes, glasses, dumbbell plates, glockenspiel, crotales, toms, snares and ceramic materials. There are also some patches using electronic drum- and synth loops and you will find sounds derived from field recordings containing percussive impacts, textures and industrial noises.

Today I updated the first excerpt from my Iris subscription, adding another 15 patches from the latest subscription sets which belong to the Strings&Voices category. As I have also converted some of these sounds into Iris 2-patches (working my way through the alphabet), these are also included in the update.

Vol. 1 now contains 105 patches including 2.37 GB of samples. The update is free, I already sent the download links to all the people who purchased Vol. 1.

As I was just converting more patches from volume/excerpt 1 from Iris 1->2 this afternoon, I came across this patch and played a little impro with it, derived from orchestral backstage noodling/warmup, the instrumental chaos retuned to a pentatonic scale and then spectralized in Iris:

Thanks. I'm working on composition skills to get more out of the material..When the sound design is so rich it becomes necessary to use it in a discerning way.
