Designed unapologetically for one purpose, Lost Reveries provides you with customisable, playable, ambient-drone synthesis created by an expert of the genre, Hilyard.
It's a sample-based VST/AU synthesiser plugin containing 32 ambient 'oscillators' that can be combined in up to 3 layers: with controls such as ADSR envelopes, filters, LFOs and more. Furthermore, it features a rack of effects including a rich reverb algorithm, delay and a phaser. Lost Reveries also comes with 80 production-ready presets that can be selected from an in-built preset browser.
Lost Reveries lives inside FrozenPlain's sampler engine, called Mirage – which is included for free in the no-hassle installer.

For me and my ambient taste this is by far the best Mirage library so far.
It really uses the options of the 3 soundsource library with great presets that get you instantly going.
I especially love that there has been really much work and thinking going into the preset naming, so far for me every preset simply sound like I would expect from the naming. That helps so much for finding the sound you are looking for.
Of course this is mainly about pad and drone ambient preset but the few plucks/rhythmic movements/textures are nice and usable too. Interesting that while all pads, athmos, drones and so on all go into one category "pads" there is a small extra texture section.
I have not even come close enough to look into the soundsources (which are not that much and divided again in an unusual way with air/mid/low/vocal) more in detail cause the presets are really capturing attention so far.
