Cube is a collection of 521 glitchy, crunchy, office-supply percussive samples - along with groovy sound-designed FX, stingers, risers, and lush ambient pads from our resident sound artist Juno VHS. Each sound has been designed using carefully selected sources like paper crunches, snapping pencils, fax machines, water coolers, paper cups, and all kinds of other office-related sounds. From the rattling of your last few anxiety pills, to luscious dreamy pads (imagining escape from your own personal cubicle hell), Cube has got your shift covered for your next game score, hot track, or quirky animation.
Spanning an eclectic variety of punchy, clicky, plinky and glitchy sounds, Cube is ideal for any style of modern hybrid or electronic music production, from minimalist, Trap, EDM, IDM, dubstep, chillwave and glitch, to post rock, soundtrack, hip hop, downtempo, dub and ambient music. It's also fantastic for sci-fi sound design and instant GUI SFX for your next video games and app project.
You can browse our full collection of brilliantly sound-designed Juno VHS libraries here and even grab the whole bundle with Crystal, Drip, Tape, Lo, Shudder, Shimmer and Cube all together in a single download at a great discount! And we have bundle upgrades available if you already own one or more of our other Juno VHS libraries.
Contents
Cube is made up of several different types of content:
- Designed Kits: After designing all the sounds, we scoured Cube for samples that roughly fit in a few traditional drum categories and assembled them into kits. Each kit is mapped in a single octave, with kicks on C, cymbals on black/sharp keys, etc. The "Designed" category is filled with very heavily manipulated, modern sounds.
- Acoustic Kits: The "Acoustic" kits are made up of less processed sounds procured during development. These are raw shuffles, crumples, and crunches that lay in beautifully with the designed category.
- Effects: These are all the awesome sounds, FILLED with character that didn't fit into the kits, in both Acoustic and Designed varieties. The Designed effects have been organized further into categories like anxiety pills, filing, insects, machines, robots, time warp, trash ball, and water cooler.
- Ambiences: As usual, we've included a heap of tonal and textural content to further flesh out your productions, maintaining the cohesive musical quality of this library :-)
In addition to these categories, this library comes equipped with flexible control features, like attack, release, transient offset, dynamic swelling, filter type selection, resonant filter sweep and a robust Arpeggiator system that provides a full range of custom dynamic arpeggiation modes and step sequencer pattern creation options. There’s also a complete DSP effects rack, including convolution reverb with dozens of unique spaces, such as cathedrals, churches, halls, bunkers, garages, tunnels, chambers, rooms and plenty of otherworldly FX impulses to fully explore and endless variety of strange and unexpected sonic manipulations.
- 23 Instrument Presets with dozens of selectable articulations, performance controls, filter, pitch warping, vibrato/ring mod, Arp sequencing and full FX rack.
- Multi-mode Arpeggiation with step-sequencer.
- Convolution Reverb with 119 different cathedrals, churches, chambers, rooms, halls and special effect impulses.
- A full multi-effects rack, with EQ, filter, phaser, flanger, delay, distortion, amp & speaker simulation and more.
Kontakt Format
This library is designed for the full retail version of Native Instruments Kontakt 5.5 or later. Kontakt is an industry-standard advanced virtual instrument software platform. You can view screenshots of this library's custom graphical user interface in the image gallery above. This library is packed with features to provide you a wide range of sound shaping parameter controls, each one totally automation-ready in your host environment or Kontakt's stand-alone mode. Learn more about Kontakt by Clicking Here.
This is a standard Kontakt open-format library, so the free Kontakt Player does not fully support it and can only run it in a limited "demo mode". However, the sample directories are unlocked so you can use them in other wav-compatible software, sampler and synth formats. The special Libraries tab doesn't support this open-format Kontakt library, but you can use the standard File browser tab and import this library into the Kontakt Quickload window for easy loading and navigation.
