Jun 02, 2019 String Audio has a unique sound that always seems to have its thumb on the pulse of modern sound designing. I have heard their signature sounds used in many television and documentary underscores. Unhuman is the next chapter in their Omnisphere collection and it is a sound palette of dark to bright. The patches in the library have brief.
Omnisphere 2.6 includes a stunning new “Hardware Library” with over 1,600 new patches created by Eric Persing and the renowned Spectrasonics Sound Development team. Each hardware profile has a corresponding set of sounds in the Hardware Library which were specially designed using that hardware synth as an Omnisphere controller. Publisher: String Audio Website: String Audio Format: Omnisphere 2.3 + Quality: 24 bit 44.1 kHz stereo Description: Presets for Omnisphere 2 Additional Information STRING AUDIO legendary samples and sound design skills meet Spectrasonics award-winning Omnisphere 2 virtual instrument, the result is an incredible library of hybrid, organic. 'LIGHTless is another hugely usable and inspiring library from String Audio. As ever, operating inside the powerful Omnisphere 2 library, there are lots of things you can do to the source material, but you'll be happy if you just load it up and play! I can see this getting used and abused in my upcoming projects.' DAVID BUCKLEY. The string/voices sounds in Lex Lugars track are nowhere to be found, infact, if the Omnisphere string presets was a food, I wouldn’t even feed it to my dog. If you go into the bells library, I don’t think there is a simple bell sound everything sounds like church bells.

About the Programmer: John Lehmkuhl
Library Specifics:
After the great success of MegaMagic Dreams and MegaMagic Pads, I wanted to think a little bigger and make sure the library was more flexible. I really loved how the guitars turned out in MegaMagic Dreams, so I produced a sampling session with a dear friend and excellent guitar player named Erick Hailstone (you will know more about Erick after the NEXT library comes out). We did 4 hours of him playing single boring notes with a BUNCH of different guitars – I wanted more variety and more notes so I could use Multi-Mode to make them a little more realistic sounding. At the end of the session, I pulled out my box of bell and wind instruments that I had built up to record (see the photo below) and for about 15 min, I picked up and played each of my handbells, finger cymbals, 3-bar Bells, Flutes, Pan Flutes and even my EchoHarp harmonica that I’ve owned since I was probably 8 years old! That 15 min of recording time turned out to be AMAZING. I was shocked how nicely everything played – even the flutes (which I am not an expert at playing!)
Over 25 acoustic bells and wind instruments performed by John Lehmkuhl available in:
- MegaMagic – Processed with LUSH multi-effect reverb and other effect processing chains I designed for this library and recorded into the sample.
- Dry – The source that was fed into the DSP effect chain.
- LOOPED – Almost everything is looped and the Looped patch is set with a slow attack for awesome PAD sounds!
This makes up 150 patches of the library.
Pioneer CDJ-2000 (versions 2.1 and above). Pioneer CDJ-900 (versions 2.1 and above). 
Denon DN-HC4500. Novation Dicer (versions 2.1 and above). Denon DN-HC1000S.
There are then 150 signature patches created by Airwave, ExoSun, Kid Anthem, Jason Schoepfer, myself and a few other guest programmers that created really exciting BONUS patches. These take the library to all sorts of new and excitng places!
AND THEN – Just as I was about to release the library, I was offered samples by L.A. based session woodwind GURU – Steve Tavaglione – who has performed on so many films (using my sounds I might add) including Finding Dory, Bridge of Spies, Underworld: Awakening, Supernatural, Wall-E and so many more!
So there are 14 AMAZING sound sources from Steve including Flute Harmonics, Flute Taps, Bass Bansuri, Waterphone + Flute and more. These are 5 – 12 second long PERFORMANCES in many cases and give this library some really special sounds that have been used in some of the TV shows and movies that Steve has worked on! These performance were also run thru the MegaMagic process so double the number of patches!
This is MegaMagic: Bells/Winds!
