Roundabout 4+ GB of original samples (wav/stereo/48 Khz/24 Bit).
110+ patches/instruments combining all synthesis methods available in MachFive.

• *Multisampled instruments, pure and twisted
  
  *Evolving pads
  
  *Vocal texures
  
  *Experimental textures
  
  *Cinematic and ominous soundscapes
  
  *Complex sequencers
  
  *Processed field recordings
  
  *Orchestral sounds derived from orchestral recordings of my own music

Sampled Instruments:

• *Celtic harp with 27 strings - multisampled with several velocity layers and round robin, harp glissandi, prepared harp samples
  
  *Timpani
  
  *Waterphone
  
  *Other string instruments (violin, piano)
  
  *Woodwinds
  
  *Chromatic and achromatic percussion (Thai gongs, Tamtam, bowed and beaten vibraphone, Glockenspiel, tibetan singing bowls, djembe and more)

About 20 patches will have custom scripting for extended sound manipulation features and a user interface, the non-scripted patches will have the 8 Macros assigned in the info tab.

ETA: around Novembre 15

Delivery: Download

Price on release (paypal): € 75 Euro, pre-order Scattered Entity for € 60 now and save 20%.

All demos below were produced entirely with MachFive 3 using only patches from Scattered Entity Vol. 1, no post-processing was applied apart from a limiter on the outputs and some volume automation, if several instances of MachFive were used in a track. If a demo does use 3rd party reverb, it will be mentioned in the track title.

Here is a demo scape combining 2 MachFive patches from Scattered Entity:

And a demo for MachFive patch "Scape Synth" layering/keysplitting fresh soundscape samples with internal synth modules - 100% MachFive

The celtic harp I'm sampling:




I bought two more Thai gongs to extend the range of my collection, I want to make a patch for Scattered Enitity with turning gongs for live leslie effects, 2 velocitiy layers (soft and hard beater), 4x round robin, 8 gongs from A#2 - D4 - extended to both sides of the range, normal sampling and granular mode.

Here is a demo for "Ozone Choir" combining granulated samples of a children's choir with a synth engine:

This is all brilliant stuff. I can't wait to get this library. And if the demos were released as an album, I would by it.

Thank you, I might compile an album with demos soon, jeez there are weeks of demos on my cloud...

And here comes a demo with the first draft of the patch "Turning Thai Gongs", it has not been scripted yet so there is no modulation going on apart from the beautiful modulation created by moving the gongs around after striking them, and there is also some MachFive FX in the demo (delay/Spark reverb).

80 samples, 8 gongs, each gong has 2 velocities (soft and hard beater) and 5X Round Robin, the decay phase of each sample when moving the gongs in front of the 3 mics is also granulated, when scripted grain speed/detune/random position mod and more will be controllable.

And here is a demo combining 2 fresh patches from this library:

And a demo for "Harp Arp" this patch uses an internal arpeggiator triggering 5 round robin samples of the lowest note on the harp (B1):

[Sampleconstruct]

Demo for MachFive 3 patch "Vibratophone" - multisampled vibra, for each note I altered the vibrato speed of the vibra's vibrato engine during the decay phase, accel/rit - there are 2 layers, one running in normal sampler mode and a granular layer, the Modwheel determines sample speed and grain length of the granular layer.

In the demo I used several Midi controllers for modulating the available Macros, e.g. level of the granular layer, attack speed, Chorus amount, reverb amount/size.

Demo for patch "Evil Grains":

To compensate for the evilness, here is a smooth Voxpad, mixing normal sampling with granular sampling and a synth module for the low bass notes.

And here is a little video with a new patch:

And a demo for "Granular Harp Flagos", tweaking the 8 available Macros on the fly while playing - quite beautiful...
