Audiofier Sphaera [KONTAKT]
Sphaera will play very long audio files starting from a set sample position, which can be randomised as a granular sampler would. But each time the playhead is activated, Sphaera will swap to a different audio recording, generating beautiful cascades of sounds.
Although the most exciting aspect of Sphaera is its unique playing mode, this instrument’s sounds can also be played in a usual fashion.
In the normal playing mode, Sphaera will play all selected sounds without any slicing.
Unique Layout
While all the main controls are laid out at the bottom of the page, the rest of the page will visualise all the currently selected sounds as soon as a key is pressed. Spheric icons will show and hide in succession representing the current sound.
Effects and Sequencing
Sphaera includes a dedicated effects page with a CONVOLUTION REVERB, including many impulse responses, from simple reverb spaces to crazy sound alterations, a portamento effect, a three band equaliser, a unique artefacts effect which alters the notes transitions.
And finally Sphaera sports a step sequencer with scale and key manager, like most of Audiofier’s instruments.
