Cicrle Cynths has introduced a new Kontakt Player-powered virtual instrument featuring an inspiring catalog of sounds coaxed directly from various forms of obsolete media and extant technology.
OBSO celebrates the undulating inconsistencies of bygone days, lovingly filtered through the oxide and worn machinery of VCRs, cassette-decks and other consumer products from the ’80s and ’90s.
Our dreamlike but intuitive interface is intended to spark instant emotion. Specifically designed to sound good no matter where the knobs are, the five visceral control circles nevertheless offer a huge depth of range within a single patch. Nostalgic synths, creamy pads, lush basses, shimmering bells, burnished brass, scintillating strings, and more glow with the patina of fine age.
Individual sounds sink into a mix like they always existed, but you’ll find they can easily stand alone without the need for layering or manipulation outside of the instrument. From film and game scoring to lush pop records, these tactile soundscapes add a dose of warm nostalgia to nearly any production.
Available for Kontakt and the free Kontakt Player (v7.10.5 or higher), OBSO is priced $69.69 USD. It comes with 120 unique patches to get you started.
