Patchpool (Simon Stockhausen) has released Resurrection for Alchemy 2, a collection of 98 meticulously crafted patches (x8 snapshots) and 3+ GB of samples and re-synthesized sounds.
This sample- and sound library makes extensive use of the new features introduced in Alchemy 2, like the new spectral and additive re-synthesis and spectral morphing, the improved granulator with multiple grain streams, FM synthesis, and the extended FX section with 4 independent effect racks and convolution reverb.
Multi-sampled instruments like water-bells, stick cello, marching drum and other percussion sounds meet an array of resynthesized acoustic sounds - also multi-sampled - like flute, violin, trombone, harp, chimes, e-bowed guitar, psaltery and mandolin or bowed metallophones and are often layered with electronic textures also derived from re-synthesized images. Lush pads, haunting and enchanting soundscapes, massive drones, expressive fantasy instruments, fascinating morph-textures, playful and groovy sequencers and intricate rhythmical textures compose a versatile collection of new sounds applicable in all kinds of genres, from ambient to new-age to electronica, world-fusion, science-fiction and soundtrack work.
Complex modulation routings and controller assignments enable the user to deeply interact with the sounds and shape them according to his/her needs.
