VSP releases "The Red Box" for Omnisphere

VSP has announced the release of The Red Box, a new set of 80 presets for Spectrasonics Omnisphere. The Red Box is part of a series of presets for Omnisphere which includes Blue Box and Green Box.

The Red Box offers some unique category additions:

Hybrid:

• Red Box introduces a new category, HYBRID.
• Hybrid takes multiple sounds sources to create something completely new.
• Many instruments share similar qualities but often it is the differences that make them unique.
• Here you will find some new and unique instruments.
• These can be very inspiring and interesting.
• Just the thing necessary to allow the Muse to flow.

Voc:

• Red Box has some intriguing vocal presets ranging from Ethnic to Ethereal.
• Presets made with only vocal performances are placed in this category.
• You may find other presets made with vocals in other categories but the ones made here are focused exclusively on the human voice.

Melodic Percussion:

• The Red Box explores melodic percussion, something Omnisphere has considerable capabilities to achieve.
• This percussion is often based on tuned instruments and can be used in many ways.
• Try using it to replace a drum kit for a more organic sound.
• Also, many of these sounds can be used to create ARPs.
• One of our goals is to create percussion that is both primal and modern.
• Experiment with the mod wheel to change the expression.
• You can also overlay multiple presets to create powerful rhythm tracks.

Keys:

• The Red Box Keys take traditional keyboards and add a twist of sub-lime.
• These keys have a broad range of usage, from Film to Pop.
• As most synths already have standard keys, we wanted to bring something special to the table.
• Here you will find a unique collection of traditional keyboards in non-traditional settings.

Pads:

• Where would we be without pads?
• It seems these days that warm, analog pads are becoming less common.
• Well, lets change all that and bring some rich, analog pads to Red Box.
• They can be used in any style of music where you need rich, warm pads.

Guit:

• The Red Box continues with some ethereal guitars.
• These multi-layered instruments have a broad array of usages.
• Many of these can be useful for Ballads, Ambient, Film, you name it.
• Each Guitar includes extensive controller data.

Leads:

• Classic vintage hardware leads.
• Including leads from Ob-8, Moog, Roland 8000, Juno, Prophet 5, CS-80 and more.

ACST:

• Many of the sounds are a mixture of traditional instruments with non-traditional sounds-capes.
• This presets group, "ACST" are presets that have some acoustic instrument or sounds that are blended with other sounds to create complex sonic combinations.
• These presets may have both ancient and modern characteristics and often change over time.
• The Mod wheel is the main controller here, setup to blend effects, filters and modulation to add further control over each preset.
• These presets are very flexible and add sonic dimension to all kinds of musical styles.
• They also have the added benefit of sounding different on every listen.

ATM:

• The Atmospheres in Red Box are complex in nature.
• Each one is a sound scape with unique qualities and concerns.
• Many are layered sounds that are juxtapositions designed to create a sense of space, depth and sonic environments.
• Because each Atmosphere is designed completely different from the others, you will find that they can fit into a large variety of musical styles.
• Many of the Atmospheres work right out of the box and sound great without the need to over-dub.

ARPs:

• The Arps in Red Box are a blend of old and new.
• Many have a primal quality and use primitive sounds blended with more modern elements.
• These are great for creating instant movement or an interesting breakdown.
• Notice how the mod wheel controls the Arp and how it moves.
• Some use complex mod wheel controls to add additional layering and delays.
