FULL DETAILS
Rises are sounds that start low in pitch and end high in pitch and they add instant rising excitement to tracks in any genre. SCULPTOR Epic Risers starts with amazing raw rise sounds then makes your life easier by putting them in sync with your projects, adding endless variety and making them very easy to control.
Many existing ‘riser’ libraries will offer either great sounds which are limited, inflexible and can’t be repeated too many times without getting stale; or a flexible but overcomplicated interface with uninspiring raw waveforms like white noise and saw tooth waves which require a lot of work for not very much in return.
Enter SCULPTOR Epic Risers with its combination of supreme sounds, clever behind-the-scenes scripting and straightforward controls...
WHO´S IT FOR?
TV, Film and Video Game composers and sound designers will love how easy it is to produce rises that range from the most subtle, yet essential, background effects to powerful and startling crescendos. In short, truly emotionally arresting audio that will steer and submerge your audience in their film/tv/game play experience. Combine with SCULPTOR Live Impacts and SCULPTOR Massive Whooshes for the ultimate toolbox of FX.
Music producers will find SCULPTOR Epic Risers to be a highly useful tool for provoking anticipation before a hook or drop, spicing up empty elements of an arrangement, creating transitions and much more.
THE SOUNDS
Louder, higher pitches are more exciting and emotionally arresting than low quiet murmurs. A transition between low and high brings its own excitement. A low sound quickly rising gives you a sense of approaching danger, with time to make a quick exit plan – as with approaching storms, trains and stampedes. In most scenarios, rising sounds initiate an instant kick of adrenaline!
The important thing for composers and producers is that rises are exciting and if they’re noisy enough and not too loud in the mix, they add excitement with enough subtlety to make a great hidden production trick. Loud in the mix, they add marvellous show-stopping crescendos.
Layering up rich rising sounds can be time consuming and difficult, SCULPTOR Epic Risers does all the hard work, leaving you with time to play, experiment and have fun.
Each sound has a main Rise elements and an end Tail element. Each of these is made up of a blend of two sounds, which helps to add spectral complexity and variety to the sounds. Mix and match different sounds, change their volumes, randomise the sounds, change the length of the rise, the pitch, EQ, envelope shapes, filters and send effects (delay and reverb).
The presets are organised into eight folders for speed in finding the type of sound you need – Clean, Hyped, Dark, Vast, Mod Gate, Mod Crunch, Dead Stops and Velocity Control. There´s also a selection of guest presets kindly designed by some of our composer friends.
