Sample Logic announces XOSPHERE

The Most Powerful Atmosphere Creation Tool Ever

After years of honing the art of atmosphere creation, Sample Logic now brings you the most powerful atmosphere creation tool ever invented – XOSPHERE. Inspired by the principles of synthesis and sampling, XOSPHERE redefines how atmospheres are designed, implemented, and morphed to fit all genres of music and sound design. This product provides advanced tools to simultaneously morph up to 8 unique atmospheres running through 4 morph module oscillators. At the heart of this is Sample Logic’s newest inventions, the Morph Knob and Morph Animator, which allow for seamless morphing between 2 atmospheres. Building upon the great success of the Step Animator and FX Animator from ARPOLOGY and CINEMATIC KEYS, this new user interface is Sample Logic’s most progressive design yet. Combining animation with psychoacoustic sampling and hybrid synthesis, XOSPHERE is the last atmosphere tool you will ever need.

Advanced Tools With Massive Power

Employing Sample Logic’s advanced randomizer function, more than 100,000 combinations of atmospheres can be created per Morph Module Oscillator, with up to 4 oscillators per instrument, and that’s before adding the numerous custom FX modules that come with the interface. In addition to the extremely powerful XOSPHERE engine, Sample Logic has introduced several dynamic, real-time preset browsers for choosing atmospheres, oscillators, and instrument presets. What happens when you put all of this together? Totally custom-crafted, unique, and original soundscapes that are full of organic life and motion, which are perfect for setting the tone of any composition or production. Before you know it, you’ll be transported to a whole new world of sonic possibilities while you morph between atmospheres effortlessly and endlessly.

The Interface: Unique, Interactive, & Intuitive

Each morph module oscillator is powered by 2 sample-based atmospheres, each of which are user assignable and can be morphed manually with the Morph Knob or animated via the Morph Animator. Don’t know where to start or what to create? No problem! The dynamic built-in browser for each morph module oscillator makes searching for presets and atmospheres simple. Whether using 1 or all 4 oscillators, there’s no limit to what can be accomplished. In addition, each morph module oscillator has independent sound sculpting parameters and effect tools. This includes a fantastic set of FX Animators for automating various parameters. Perhaps the most exciting feature is the inclusion of a Dual Filter Oscillator that modulates the hi-cut filter of each morph module oscillator, generating creative and complex rhythms by animating two hicut filters at different speeds.

Real Time Effects

Each Morph Module Oscillator is equipped with the following tweak-able effects:
▪ Volume
▪ Pan
▪ Adjustable Root Note Placement per atmosphere
▪ Morph Knob / Animator
▪ Sample Start
▪ Pitch
▪ ADSR
▪ Filter
▪ Convolver

Each Instrument is equipped with Master Effects that affect all Morph Module Oscillators:

▪ Compressor
▪ EQ
▪ Distortion
▪ Phaser
▪ Delay
▪ Reverb

Warping Beyond the Sound with Convolver

Each morph module oscillator contains a collection of warp-able convolution presets to feed the atmospheres through. Convolver will take your sounds even further into a new dimension.

Atmospheres That Are Simply Amazing

XOSPHERE is not only a creative sound sculpting tool, it is packed with inspiring sample content. The sample-based atmospheres have been meticulously crafted using various psychoacoustic sampling techniques. Sample Logic has raised the standard of organic synthesis by morphing real world and synthetic sounds into the finest Atmospheres on the market. Not only do they sound fantastic, but they cover cinematic, electronic, and organic music genres, perfect for any music production. Breathe life into your music with the evocative atmospheric categories included in XOSPHERE.

Categories include:

▪ Bizarre
▪ Dark N Scary
▪ Electronic – Effectual
▪ Euphoric – Spiritual
▪ Mixed Emotions
▪ Mysterious
▪ World Organic

So How Many Sounds, Morph Modules Oscillators, and Instruments Are There?

▪ 350+ Atmospheres
▪ 2 Atmospheres per Morph Module Oscillator with 100,000+ possible
combinations of atmospheres per oscillator
▪ 275 Morph Module Oscillator factory presets
