Convolution Synthesizer

Best Service releases Galaxy X by Galaxy Instruments 16-Jan-12
Convolution Synthesizer


After three years of development Galaxy Instruments and Best Service have released GALAXY X, which they describe as an exciting new virtual instrument with an extraordinary new kind of sound design: Effect Convolution. They say that it all begins with the sources, which are sample sets especially and exclusively recorded and tweaked for use with FX Convolution: for X-KEYS hundreds of tonally playable instruments like piano overtones, a bowed fan, waterphone or mini-celesta, for X-FX thousands of effect sounds such as magic balls, whirling wood or circuit bent noises and for X-LOOPS exceptional loops such as 1-tone-drum, body percussion or rod spring piano. But, they tell us, this is just food for the beast: the X-Engine.

A spokesperson told Sonic State, "With the X-Files of the X-Engine, a celeste mutates into a tuning orchestra, a bowed ventilator sinks into the resonances of a piano, a sitar smashes into a clatter of glass, a tonal dance loop arises from a kalimba. X comes with over 1000 extraordinary ready to play key, FX and loop instruments and an extremely intuitive user interface, enabling you to create trillions of sounds easily."

If you look at the website it looks interesting. Of course the proof is in the sound and "usefulness"

Hey guys, audio-examples can now be found on our website under galaxy-instruments.com or directly on

http://soundcloud.com/galaxy-instruments/sets/galaxy-x_demo-tracks

All demos are made using Galaxy X sounds exclusively. Video-tutorials will follow soon to explain the structural design and the possibilities of the X. Please have a listen before you judge the instrument.

Cheers, Stephan ___________________ Galaxy Instruments
