Diva Skyline Vol 1 and Diva Skyline Vol 2 are two brand new synth soundsets celebrating the beauty of analogue synth sounds, using u-he's wonderful analogue-modelling softsynth, Diva.

As the classic sounds of analogue synthesizers becomes ever more popular, not everyone can afford a collection of Junos, Prophets, Moogs and Oberheims. However, u-he’s Diva does give us about as accurate a recreation of those circuit-based monsters as we can get on a sensible budget.

Diva Skyline aims to provide some of the much-loved analogue vibe for modern composing and electronica. It’s inspired by recent synth-heavy film scores such as Tron Legacy by Daft Punk, Oblivion by M83, and Ex Machina by Geoff Barrow and Ben Salisbury; as well as less well known gems such as It Follows by Disasterpiece and The Duke of Burgundy by Cat’s Eyes. There are even a few nods to classic John Carpenter and the revivalist Synthwave genre, as well as The Unfinished favourites: Olafur Arnalds and Jon Hopkins.

Both volumes provide esoteric pads, harrowing basses, exotic sequences and arps, mesmerising leads, and hellish soundscapes. All with the power, punch and delicacy you’d expect of accurate analogue circuit modelling.

Diva Skyline comes in two volumes because... well, because I had too much fun programming Diva and created two soundsets worth of new patches.

Both Diva Skyline Vol 1 & 2 will each be available for £19.99 +VAT.

And there's a two week promotion (ends 5th June) where you can pick up Volume 2 for half price, just £9.99, when you purchase Volume 1. Put both in the cart and use the discount code GAMLASTAN.

Check out some demo tracks and walkthrough videos...

This seems a bit confusing to me.
If the price for both is the 20 pounds then the promotion price to buy one and getting a discount on two will be less than that?

Also, any chance of a bundled price of these two with Ex Machina at the same time?

@Caine123 - No, I haven't done that type of lead here. But, let's just say I've been listening to a LOT of Synthwave for some upcoming releases.

@Amused - At that point the product wasn't released. It is now, and the newsletter's now gone out!

@BBFG - Apologies if that wording was confusing. They are both £19.99 +VAT, not you can get both for £19.99 +VAT. Will amend to make it clearer.

Anyway...

Diva Skyline Vol 1 and Diva Skyline Vol 2 are both now on sale!

There isn't I'm afraid. But I think being able to get one of them for half price isn't bad!

Diva has a lot of great third party presets, and these (and ex machina) are some of the best.
