Playing to Chromaphone's strengths with an intricate choice of tuned percussion and sturdy drums, deep mallets, rich keys, driving basses — the pack's 100 presets also wander into creative territory with sets of shimmering reverb and delay-drenched guitar-like synths, sweeping sound effects, and dusty analog synthesizer tones. At its core, Hover highlights the vibe and character of the chillwave and downtempo sub-genres.
AAS sound designer newcomer Niall McCallum presents Hover — a brand new collection of presets showcasing and celebrating the wide-ranging sonic capabilities of Chromaphone 2.
