SAMPLE LIBRARY
Xperiments explores dreamy sci-fi soundscapes, gritty distorted drones and textures, strange leads, galactic analog pads, weird and wonderful effects, and more. It combines a small sample set of pristinely recorded analog oscillators with a powerful effects and modulation engine, producing deep, powerful, futuristic cinematic sound.

PURE ELECTRIC
Analog and modular synthesisers play a pivotal role in creating the distinct soundscapes of fantasy and science fiction films. These versatile electronic instruments are used to craft otherworldly sounds that help to transport audiences into fantastical realms and futuristic worlds. DarkSkyAudio have spent the last decade inventing ways of authentically reproducing these organic electronic wonders within software.
Xperiments is the testbed that we use to explore groundbreaking analog sampling techniques, presets and effects – we thought you might like to explore these sounds too.
CINEMATIC POWERHOUSE
Our powerful Kontakt engine is not only specially designed to embody the character, depth and feel of analog and modular synths, but also features advanced modulation and effects (admittedly some of them are hidden in this free version) that turn this analog monster into a hyper-versatile electro-cinematic masterpiece.
Serine atmospheres, oceanic superscapes, dirty drones, bizarre leads, industrial basses, driving pulses, haunting ambiences, moving pads and more – Xperiments gives you all of this with a sound and feel rarely experienced within software.
SO MUCH CONTROL
Even though Xperiments is free, it packs a mighty set of features.
• Unique multi-fx • Voice spread and sample start • A beautifully crafted multi-mode filter • Selectable noise/sub layer • Macros for reverb, delay, drive, width, motion, LFOs, etc. • Mono/polyphonic playing modes • Variable mono/poly glide • Input quantise • Pitch-bend range • Velocity sensitivity • Preset initialisation • Assignable CCs and more.
There is no end to the amount you can twist, morph and modulate your super sci-fi sounds!
