Our bespoke grid interface, inspired by the EMS VCS3 synth, positions ‘pegs’ via an onscreen 12 x 40 grid arrangement, giving you access to recordings across 12 intervals, organised in a grid with a wide range of possible configurations. Instantly select which technique sits on each of those 12 key ranges, toggle your pegs, or hit "Randomise" to generate randomised combinations for instant inspiration.

The Hall at AIR Studios
If you want that blockbuster sound, you have to go bold. If you want cinematic, you have to go big. These stunning performances have been captured in The Hall at AIR Studios, a space that has played host to scores from the highest grossing blockbusters (Harry Potter, The Dark Knight, Atonement). We've used the same first-call session players as in Spitfire Symphony Orchestra, sampled with our usual more is more approach by award-winning engineer, Jake Jackson. The final product offers six signals to choose from, including Close Tree & Ambient mics, and three specially curated mixes.
