In partnership with SwishSwoosh, Sonora Cinematic has announced the release of Amber and its free sibling, Little Amber.
Amber is described as "a versatile Kontakt Player tool for crafting dark spine-chilling soundscapes with ease". With its Color Layers, XY Pad, and One-Shot section, Sonora Cinematic says Amber is "a frightfully mesmerising creative laboratory for conjuring evocative drones, deep textures, and impactful risers and tensions".
Users can utilise the XY pad to fine-tune the intensity and blend between sound sources for an immersive and terrifying experience. Meanwhile, impactful hits, rising tensions and suspense-building sounds with metals and strings are all possible within the One-Shot section.
From the subtle nuances of the chorus to the edgy twists of the bitcrusher, Amber's FX section offers even more tools for customisation, with a variety of modulation parameters like distortion, phaser, chorus, bit-crusher, and more.
Users can easily customize and filter sounds to get the perfect tone with the EQ section and with Amber's reverb section – 'SCENES' – they can use one of the custom impulse responses to place your sound design in a range of creative virtual spaces, from small reflective rooms to massive halls.
Amber is available now for an intro price of £48 (until 6th December, 2023), or download the free version, Little Amber.
Both versions require the free Kontakt Player v7+.
