If you have Xosphere, Empyral AD or ambience related Sample Logic library - you should have one more discount code sent to the inbox

The sticker shock may be a wee bit lessened if you could load your own samples.

Click on CORE 1, CORE 2 etc in the top bar to open loads of sound shaping and modulation options.

[@SampleLibraryReviews]

I got there about 40 minutes in ;)

This is really cool! It reminds me a little bit of the sounds that came with my Roli Seaboard, and it's Equator software. But this might have more sounds per patch. Looks like four separate samples combined. The XY pad thing is a really cool modern convenience too. I am not an Apple or Mac person, but I saw a thing about the new iPad Pros and they look pretty tempting, partly because of the touchscreen factor. It would be really cool to have an inexpensive touch screen for just the XY axis to hook up to legacy synths and controllers. Maybe this exists, but I am a real beginner as far as workarounds go.

So this reminds me of Lunacy Audio - CUBE, what can this actually do that cube cant do, as Cube is a lot cheaper as well?

[@timspencer1]

I love Cube! It's such an interesting instrument and the preset packs are quality!

[@johnhawkinshawkins1284]

sounds great all round except for the crazy price! Wait a while, get the other similar-sounding atmo's off their shop, and before you know it it will be vastly reduced!

[@NeuroPete]

I like this a lot, but I own Lunaris 2, Arkhis, Biosphere, and other evolving pad stuff. Maybe the variations are longer, but it seems very similar to what I have. Otherwise, it would be worth the money to me, though I would probably wait for sale.

[@devadiponeness]

Hi, what about controls ? Without Kontakt you have not the Automation section to assign CC to the virtual knobs, so, how do you control the Ultrasphere running into NI Maschine ? Is it provided with MIDI Learn on its controls ? Thanks

[@itinerantghost]

This sounds really good! Would you say that it is worth it if I already own Lunaris 2? They seem to have a similar amount of presets and sound sources. As you’ve reviewed both… Thought you might have a good idea of the territory they cover.

[@NeuroPete]

Same for me. It seems that Lunaris 2 covers the same ambient ground. I probably wouldn't get it, even at a much lower price.

[@itinerantghost]

@@NeuroPeteI’ve been diving into this a bit more and ultraSphere’s more about atmospheres and not so much about pads, so there might be space for both in a collection 😬

[@NeuroPete]

@@itinerantghost That sounds like it might be true. I will have to revisit my similar libraries and listen to more walkthroughs. Meanwhile, UltraSphere is on my wishlist as a maybe.
