Classic Synths Get Radioactive
Here's a new twist on your average synth library.
Designed, engineered, blown up and re-animated by mad programmer Kevin
Wakefield, Analog Meltdown has the brains of one synth and the body of
another. Wakefield adds an array of mod wheels, faders, breath controllers
and pedals to each program, making this one of the most playable synth
libraries you'll ever get your hands on.
The sounds are wild and freakish, clamorous and whimsical. They have a
unique personality, unpretentious and in-your-face. No innocuous pads
awash in reverb, no blatant attempts to sound like a string orchestra
or brass section, Analog Meltdown is truly the "Edward Scissorhands"
of sample libraries, unusual perhaps, but it slices through your mixes
with razor sharp precision and confidence.
To categorize all the sounds would be a challenge, but there is a wide
assortment of textures including stunning leads, power pads, FM (no really,
it's FM!), plucky sounds, sweeps, bubbly effects, stellar grand prix,
electro-shock treatments, sci-fi weapons and transporters, stingers and
resonators, and as you might expect, much, much more. These are all active
sounds, designed to be featured and loud, having been blessed with cut-through
clarity and depth.
We urge caution however, when handling the contents of this disc. Be prepared
to alter the course of your creativity due to the unpredictable effect
of these sounds on your psyche. Analog Meltdown is a real adventure in
electro-magnetic experimentation!
"Analog Meltdown not only captures
the integrity of Analog synthesis but also the magic of the technology.
This disc gives you all the analog sounds you remember, plus a grand assortment
of amazing material that would have never been possible until now."

Jordan Rudess
