Xpand!2

Four on the Floor

Xpand!2 is a multitimbral workstation offering four active sound slots, or parts, per patch. Each part is provided with its own MIDI channel, Note Range (Zone), Mix, Arpeggiation, Modulation, and Effects settings—an excellent method for creating individual parts.

Harnessing the four parts together to build one amazing Patch is where Xpand!2 reveals its true power. The Voice Mode for each part can be set to polyphonic or monophonic.

Polyphonic parts can have up to 64 voices; monophonic parts offer First, Last, Highest, or Lowest priority making it easy to designate a bass, lead, or solo instrument.

    • This is an Audio Plugin – It REQUIRES a HOST Software

MAIN FEATURES:

  • Four-channel multitimbral operation
  • Up to four stereo instrument parts per patch
  • Up to 64 voices per part; Mono or Poly voice modes
  • Smart Knobs provide intuitive sound editing
  • Easy Edit Knobs control the entire patch at once
  • Two digital effects processors; 50 editable effect types
  • Individual arpeggiation control for each part
  • Multiple sound generation engines:
  • Subtractive Synthesis
  • FM Synthesis
  • Tonewheels
  • Sample Playback
  • 2500+ total presets

Sounds Galore

Using everything from wavetables and FM synthesis to sample playback, the expert sound design team at Air Music Tech has carefully created thousands of ready-to-play Xpand!2 patches.

Creating your own is easy, too. Parts can be quickly browsed and are conveniently sorted into 29 categories, offering a simple path to find just what you’re looking for.

Smart Knobs and Easy Edits

Six smart knobs are provided for custom-tweaking your Xpand!2 sounds. Each knob changes function depending on the part selected, offering hands-on control of the most critical sound elements.

Select the Easy mode, and all six knobs now control all four of the common parts in a patch simultaneously for quickly performing those crucial edits.

And of course, all of your edits can be saved for instant recall.

Major Modulation

Express yourself with powerful performance features! Pitch Bend wheel and Aftertouch (pressure) modulation assignments can be made independently for each part.

Modulation rates can be tempo sync’d or free-wheeling. Numerous modulation destinations are provided, and the WAVE destination parameters are different from part to part, providing unique Xpand!2 sound-shaping capabilities.

Advanced Arpeggiation

Keep things moving with advanced arpeggiation. Simply set the Rate—including dotted and triplet values—and then select the Mode.

Using the Latch switch allows the arpeggiator to continue to play, even when your hands leave the keyboard. Each Xpand!2 part is provided with its own arpeggiator.

Many parts such as Action Pads and Loops will automatically activate the Arpeggiator, as it forms an integral part of the sound.

Dynamic Effects Duo

Xpand!2 includes two independent effect processors with fifty studio-grade effects, ranging from rich reverbs to the mind-bending Chaos Delay.

When selecting a new effect type, Xpand!2 will instantly change the edit knob functions to provide accurate control of every effect. The output of FX1 can be fed into the input of FX2 to create advanced “cascade-style” effects.

AIR Essential Synths Pack

This Bundle Features Vacuum Pro, Loom 2, and The Riser!

Vacuum Pro

Analog Just Got Warmer

Vacuum Pro is a virtual polyphonic analog synthesizer with vacuum tube circuit modeling that perfectly captures the crunchy, warm sound of the analog era.

With four analog oscillators, multiple filters and envelopes, and built-in audio effects, Vacuum Pro lets you dive deep into subtractive synthesis to recreate those sought-after analog sounds from the 70s and 80s.

Tweak the switches, knobs, and dials to program anything from basses, leads, pads, or unique sound effects.

For even more warmth, Vacuum Pro has six virtual vacuum tube circuits that add crunch and grit at every stage of the signal path. Analog just got a whole lot warmer.

Important Note: Vacuum Pro is a VST/AU plugin, It is not a hardware synth.

Features:

  • A four-oscillator polyphonic analog synthesizer with vacuum tube circuit modeling
  • Super-wide, fat, and organic analog sound captures the character of classic synthesizers
  • Two individual synthesizer parts for huge, stacked sounds
  • 350+ tweakable patches programmed by legendary sound designers
  • Smart Sound Randomizer dials in settings to user-defined parameters
  • 8 Smart Knobs for easy programming and macro control over key parameters
  • Economy mode reduces the load on the host processor with minimal impact on the sound
  • 64-bit plugin: VST, AU, RTAS, and AAX formats
  • This is an Audio Plugin – It REQUIRES a HOST Software

Vintage Vibes

Vacuum Pro is a powerful combination of two separate synthesizer parts that can be stacked, split, and layered to produce big, wide, and fat analog sounds.

Each Vacuum Pro part starts with two wide-range, vacuum tube oscillators that can be synched, detuned, and set to various octave levels. Plus, Quad Detune controls per oscillator make it easy to quickly dial in lush sounds.

For an even bigger sound, the built-in Doubling effect instantly widens and thickens up your patch. Shape your sound with two vacuum tube filters that include a traditional low-pass filter and a selectable high-pass/band-pass filter. Vacuum Pro also has four envelope generators, matrix-assignable modulation, and a tempo sync’d LFO. The mixer offers a drive circuit and a tone-warping ring modulator.

For authentic analog behavior, the Age controls let you manipulate the drift of and add dust to your sounds. 

Programming Powerhouse

Vacuum Pro comes complete with 350+ tweakable patches created by acclaimed sound designers Richard Devine and Mark Ovenden. You can load these patches separately into each Vacuum Pro part to combine and experiment with multi-timbral sounds. For instant sound inspiration, Vacuum Pro features Smart Sound Randomization, which randomly generates new settings for either part or both.

Define which modules you want to lock at their current settings, which will be randomized, and then let Smart Sound dial in a patch for you.

Global Control

Vacuum Pro’s Smart page condenses all the individual parameter controls into eight macro knobs that enable you to quickly shape the sound of your patch without extensive tweaking. Macro knobs such as Punch, Emphasis, and Complexity add an intuitive workflow for perfecting your programming.

Switch back and forth between the micro and macro modes to quickly edit or create your own custom sounds.

Extra Effects

In addition to its authentic analog sound, Vacuum Pro includes a host of creative tools that are characteristic of classic analog synthesizers.

An onboard arpeggiator, which can be tempo sync’d to your DAW, offers a quick way to build melodic runs and short sequences.

A built-in chorus/phaser and delay effects give life and motion to your Vacuum Pro patches. Onscreen pitch bend and modulation wheels add extra expression to any performance, and all parameters are MIDI-mappable for performance ease and automated control.

Loom II – Modular Additive Synthesizer

Explore Additive Synthesis

Loom II is a major upgrade to the original, pushing the boundaries of additive synthesis. Loom II is ideal for all skill levels.

Mix & Match Modules

Loom II delivers up to 512 harmonic partials per patch and uses an intuitive modular design to create complex sounds quickly and easily.

Each of the 34 editable modules performs a specific sonic task—Octaver, Second Tone, Moving Filter, Noise, Linear Lowpass, Modulator, etc.

The Loom II framework provides a series of cells, where up to 10 of these modules can interact combine to generate an additive synthesis patch. Each module includes task-specific parameters for detailed, individual control of the patch.

For real-time visual feedback of your sound, each module includes a spectrum window, offering a visual indication of how that module is affecting the individual harmonics of the sound.

In Loom II we have added four new powerful modules:

  • 5-Sines – An easy-to-use module enabling you to produce a range of organ or sine style sounds.
  • Discrete Adder – Similar to Loom 1’s popular adder, but adding a discrete spectrum ideal for creating percussion-based synth instruments.
  • Hype – adding Hi and Low Hype with dedicated easy-to-use controls for instant results.
  • Double Wave – for our more advanced users: Use dual waves to create complex synth patterns. We have also added a dedicated control for this in the Morph pad.

Make Your Music Move

Loom II’s Morph Pad is a powerful tool that adds dynamics and movement to your patches. Using a condensed set of control knobs, Loom II enables you to quickly create up to four variations of your sound, and assign each one to different quadrant of the Morph Pad. Point, click, and drag anywhere on the Morph Pad to create a morph path.

As the sound moves along this patch, you will hear it morph in real time between your four variations. This morphing can be free-form, or set to sync up to a particular musical unit—1 bar, 4 bars, etc.

Plus, each segment of the morph path can be synced individually. In Loom II, we have expanded our highly-acclaimed morph pad by allowing Points/Paths to be stored and restored separately. We have also added a new X-Axis mode enabling it to perform like an envelope, which is ideal for rhythmical morph patterns.

For this new mode Snap/Grid is also available. Additionally, for expanded creativity you can now use parameters not linked to the Morph.

The Riser – Synth-based Transition Designer

Stops Hearts. Tops Charts.
The Riser is an all-new instrument for designing musical transitions of epic proportions. A powerful, synth-based instrument, The Riser features all of the tools you need to compose heart-stopping transitions in one intuitive user-interface. In seconds, you can construct rises, falls, swells, fades, and more, based on our coveted sound synthesis technology.

For instant inspiration, The Riser includes 300 pro-grade presets that you can edit, deconstruct, copy, mangle, and implement into your tracks.

Transitions add suspense, hype, drama, and movement to your music. Cymbal swells and reversed instruments were go-to transitions for years, until the DAW pioneered fast and flexible audio editing, paving the way for complex sound effects.

When combined with synths and other audio shaping tools, transitions completed their metamorphosis from science to art. Until now, this process has convoluted and time-intensive, taking attention away from the overall project itself. The composer spent more time trying to get plugins, virtual sample players, hardware effects, sound modules, and other gear to play nice with each other – and that was before hitting “record”.

Features:

  • Transition designer optimized for electronic music production, scoring, and remix work
  • 3 editable oscillators; sweep, noise, and chord
  • 3 LFOs; free-running, tempo-synced, and Pumper
  • 23 filter types including multi-pole and phase shift
  • 300 professionally designed, editable presets
  • Randomizer generates patches at the click of a button
  • Invert mode creates complementary patches by instantly changing transition direction
  • Easy MIDI-Learn Mode; just click and twist to assign parameters to your favorite MIDI controller hardware
  • Pumper effect creates pulsating movement
  • Configurable delay and reverb with wet/dry processing; 4 reverb types
  • Adjustable panning movements and master stereo width control
  • 64-bit AU; 32- and 64-bit VST/AAX; Mac or Windows

A 3-for-All
Featuring the most powerful and musical virtual synthesis available, The Riser can be used to create classic transitions or effects never-before-heard by human ears. The core of The Riser’s mojo are three continuously variable oscillators; sweep, noise and chord. Each oscillator features a dedicated Filter send and graphical parameter depiction. 

Sweep – featuring volume, frequency and oscillator shape – dictates the direction and progression of the transition. Create rises, falls, stops, and swells with audible and visible feedback.

Providing volume, shape, and pitch controls, the Noise oscillator infuses texture into your transition. Start shaping to add grit, bite, hiss, punch, and more to the effect.

The Riser’s Chord oscillator introduces you to an uncharted creative continent. Use it to match The Riser’s sonic structure to your song’s key (or a contrasting one) and blend it to taste; it can be as musical as you want.

Each drum channel also contains a special tuning screw that can be turned to make a sonic adjustment, specific to a particular drum. This tweaking ability provides for nearly limitless possibilities with a user-friendly interface.

You can mix and match drums from different kits to make your own custom kit, and the drum sounds can be triggered individually via standard MIDI pitch mappings.

For instant inspiration, over 50 presets are included cover contemporary, classic electronic/urban musical genres.

Boom also has an on-board sequencer that enables you to create and trigger your own patterns, which can be saved and recalled as presets.

You can select different patterns using the keys along the bottom of the interface, when you’re in Pattern Select mode, and these are conveniently color ‘coded to show you how they map to a MIDI keyboard from middle ‘C’ upwards for remote selection.

The Matrix display in the top left enables you to program a pattern, but if you prefer you can also use the keys along the bottom, this time with Pattern Edit mode selected.

You’ll find some nice touches, such as the ability to copy one pattern to another, and some simple controls for adjusting the way in which the pattern plays back within your host: normal, double, half or triplet time, and there’s even a swing control mirroring classic MPC’s and other vintage drum machines/samplers.

The Riser’s Chord oscillator introduces you to an uncharted creative continent. Use it to match The Riser’s sonic structure to your song’s key (or a contrasting one) and blend it to taste; it can be as musical as you want.

Studio Strings

Become The Conductor Of Your New Orchestra – A Four Section String-Stravaganza

When using Studio Strings, you can choose between instrumentation options that open up endless possibilities for sound crafting. The four included models, coupled with various articulations, give you an entire orchestra at your fingertips.

Bass: The Bass model is the largest and lowest-pitched bowed instrument in the Orchestra—the original sub-bass! Its tone will add a deep bottom-end to your string lines.

Cello: The Cello is part of the low end of the orchestra, but it has a slightly higher pitch range than the double bass instrument. Because of this higher pitch range, cellos are often heard in solo lead lines in orchestral arrangements thanks to the beautiful harmonics of their eminently recognizable tones.

Viola: The Viola is a beautiful instrument that brings fullness to the Orchestra with an excellent mid-range pitch that sounds like a violin with added richness. The viola can often be mistaken for violin tones, but its deeper pitch and fullness give it a character all its own!

Violin: The Violin is the highest-pitched instrument in the string section. It’s often heard as the main melodic instrument of the orchestra. Typically when you listen to strings, you think of the violin, and that’s because there are usually several sections of them playing in any classical arrangement!

The Ultimate Orchestra!

Studio Strings brings rich and elegant orchestral, chamber, and solo string sounds to your compatible VST, AU, AAX, or MPC Standalone host. You can create beautifully articulated masterpieces using its powerful and carefully-sampled sound library that offers over 1 GB of content and 100 presets.  Whether you’re looking to develop custom orchestral hits for a boom-bap beat, build up a symphonic-style string arrangement, or add some solo violin lines to your track, Studio Strings lets you mold extraordinary string sounds for whatever genre you’re creating.

  • 100 PRESETS FOR ANY STRING SOUND YOU NEED
  • MULTIPLE INSTRUMENT ARTICULATIONS FOR COMPELLING STRING PERFORMANCES

Articulate String Production

Studio Strings features authentic string instruments with advanced articulation options that let you craft the perfect string section and play style for your production. Multiple articulations are available per instrument, including Staccato Up/Down, Pizzicato, Sustain, Tremolo, Marcato, Legato, and more.

Color Your Orchestra with High-Quality Effects

Studio Strings lets you adjust everything from dynamics, envelopes, vibrato, aftertouch, and the speed and length of legato glides. Studio Strings also includes a powerful FX engine allowing you to modernize the sounds with effects like EQ, filter, reverb, and delay.

Stage Piano

Four Classic Piano Sounds, Sampled and Modeled with Perfection

Stage Piano includes multi-layer sample sets collected from the world’s most impressive acoustic pianos that cost more than a car! With Stage Piano, you can get the best and most sought-after acoustic pianos inside a VST/AU/AAX-compatible plugin host. The AIR engineering team has painstakingly sampled each piano model in Germany to make sure they captured the natural beauty of the instrument’s acoustic characteristics.

Yamaha C7: This 7-foot-wide piano is one of the world’s most in-demand models for the stage and live recording. You can usually find this piano in well-equipped and expensive studios, jazz venues, and hotel lobbies thanks to its rich tone and “just right” natural volume in various spaces.

Steinway D: Since 1853, Steinway Pianos have been famous for their warm, rich, and resonant tones. The Steinway D is known for its unparalleled quality, craftsmanship, and nuanced playability. At over 9 feet wide, it’s also one of the most expansive and expensive pianos you could ever buy—it’s so big it takes up a whole room!

Bechstein Upright: This legendary piano crafted in Germany has one of the richest histories of all pianos. Bechstein upright and grand pianos use every well-known piano manufacturing process, resulting in instruments capable of subtle nuance and detailed responsiveness. This Bechstein upright model will have you playing classic piano tunes with one of the most iconic piano tones ever.

Workstation: The workstation model was taken directly from AIR’s highly acclaimed Xpand!2 sample library and features a “classic” synthesizer workstation style tone with a harder transient attack and more high-end color. It is perfect for getting the piano sound you’ve heard on thousands of records of the 90s, 00s, and today. This model is your typical “workhorse” piano with a sound that will cut through any mix!

Elegant and Expressive Piano Sounds Sampled from World-Renowned Instruments

Experience the joy of playing the most acclaimed pianos in history with brilliant multi-sampled sounds that offer you access to the original instrument’s sonic characteristics and timbre options. With its elegant interface, you can control the piano model’s dynamics, age, and even the lid position and mechanics of the hammers. Stage Piano also gives you access to attack and release amplitude control, bringing your concert to life. In addition, Stage Piano includes a powerful FX section allowing you to add creative timbres to your tones.

Craft Your Piano Sounds Using Multiple Models, Articulation Controls, And Colorful Effects

Put the Pedal to the Metal!

We built Stage Piano with piano players in mind, whether they are on-stage or in the studio. The plugin includes plenty of articulations and foot pedal parameters that give you the natural expression of a real acoustic piano. Each sample set offers separate pedal parameters that will let you adjust the level of sustain resonance, the hammer falls, staccato release, and soft pedal to create a genuinely accurate piano performance.

Built-In Effects Engine to Color and Stylize your Piano Sounds

Stage Piano includes multiple effects like Flavor timbre control, EQ, compression, rich reverb, and delay. Create brilliant shimmers, dark haunting echoes, or spacey washed pianos with a cutting-edge effects engine built into the instrument.

  • Make deep, evolving sounds with a strong attack, morphing, or filter movement

  • Multiple preset banks give you easy access to great FM sounds
  • Purchase unlocks plug-in on three devices including PC, MAC (VST, AU, AAX) and Standalone (MPC & FORCE)

A Four Operator FM Synthesizer Instrument

Hello Operator, Get me OPx-4! OPx-4 is a groundbreaking four operator FM synthesizer with advanced sound editing and an easy-to-understand control layout. In addition, the system has one of the most profound FM engines ever built with a 4×4 FM matrix that includes tone shaping and filtering and a 32-slot matrix for modulating your FM tones.

Deep FM Sound Design Functionality

A Groundbreaking FM Synth Engine: With its flexible wave shaping, dual-mode filter path with 23 different filter types, six envelopes with tempo-synced looping, two LFOs, and two ramps, the OPx-4 will become your go-to FM synth. It includes three insert FX and two global FX for use with 27 included AIR effect plugins, such as reverb, delay, distortion, modulation effects, and more.

Leave Your Sound Design Ph.D. at the Door. OPx-4 Makes FM Synthesis Easy: FM synthesis works by taking classic oscillator waveforms and modulating them until they sound like something brand new. If you’ve ever experimented with FM synthesis, you know it can be complicated to understand how to make great sounds. OPx-4’s simple layout and easy controls make it a breeze to experiment with FM functions without needing a deep understanding of how it works behind the scenes. An easy-to-understand control scheme makes experimenting as easy as turning knobs until it sounds great!

Four Operators, Two Filters, Thirty-Two Mod Sources, ONE Great Sound: Using four FM operators and an FM operator matrix, you can craft almost any FM sound you’ve ever heard—or even those you haven’t heard of yet! You can adjust the values of each operator using specific on-screen controls for pulse width, formant, FM filtering, and FM shaping, as well as specific ADSR and FM oscillator envelope controls.

Built-In Effects Engine to Stylize your sounds: OPx-4 includes multiple effects like EQ, amp sims, reverb, delay, and modulation. Create brilliant shimmers, dark haunting echoes, or spacey washed-out DX-style electric pianos with a cutting-edge effects engine built right into the instrument.

Unlock these sounds in Akai MPC/FORCE for FREE: Purchase this plugin and you’ll get the ability to unlock it within your Akai Professional MPC / FORCE Standalone hardware as well as using within your favorite DAW. Seamlessly move productions from standalone hardware to your DAW with the same great sounds.

Jura

The Synth Of ‘82… Reimagined For Your Future Hits

There’s a second envelope, not found on the original, to help you further craft the perfect sound.In addition to the chorus, there’s a powerful delay, reverb, and EQ circuit.

Time After Time

In short, Jura gives you the best of both worlds – the classic sound of an ‘80s synth monster, coupled with some very cool modern workflow enhancements. Jura comes in several versions; a plugin for AU, VST, and AAX DAWs, and there’s the MPC/FORCE Standalone versions for the complete hardware experience of touch control.

DB-33

There are very few truly unique instrumental sounds in the world of music. Sounds so distinct, so compelling, so immediately identifiable and genuine that you just have to have it.

Nothing else will do. “Close” won’t do. “Almost” won’t cut it. “Approximately” will instantly brand you as a shallow imposter.

One of these really great, unmistakable instrumental sounds is the tonewheel organ, such as the classic Hammond B3. The Hammond B3 was used by many great rock, soul and jazz artists in the 1960’s to 1980’s.

Unforgettable musicians like Stevie Winwood, Jon Lord of Deep Purple, Jimmy Smith and Richard “Groove” Holmes.

Great music, great sound, created on an absolutely great instrument. That’s what you want. And that’s what DB-33 Tonewheel Organ gives you.

MAIN FEATURES:

  • AIR-proprietary vintage organ model
  • Custom designed, extra-realistic convolution rotary cabinet, also usable as a stand-alone effect
  • Tube overdrive emulation
  • Includes over 120 presets

DB-33 Tonewheel Organ is a virtual organ that recreates the sounds and controllability of classic tonewheel organs such as the Hammond B3, and the rotary-speaker cabinets they are often played through.

It includes 122 preset sounds plus an extra-realistic convolution rotary cabinet and tube overdrive emulation.

The rotary-speaker cabinet can also be used as an effect in its own right on an audio track.
