Fracture Sounds Glacier Keys: Cinematic Piano Harmonics KONTAKT

By | February 18, 2021

Fracture Sounds Glacier Keys: Cinematic Piano Harmonics KONTAKT

Fracture Sounds Glacier Keys: Cinematic Piano Harmonics KONTAKT

Glacier Keys is a collection of piano harmonics, performed on a Steinway D concert grand and sampled in incredible detail in a modern concert hall setting. Harmonics are produced by gently placing a finger on the middle of the string, producing a pitch an octave above the natutral note of the string, resulting in a beautiful glass-like timbre, perfect for neo-classical, ambient and minimal compositions, or any situation where you need a piano with a more evocative, glistening tone than usual.

Although this is an ‘extended technique’ library, we’ve spent extra care making it as playable as possible. You can approach it in the same way as a regular piano – it is programmed so that middle C sounds like middle C, even though the actual key that produced the note was an octave below. We also positioned the close mics further left than normal, so that the stereo image is centered around the sounding middle C.

The instrument was recorded in a modern concert hall environment using a selection of 14 top-shelf microphones (from DPA, Coles, Neumann) placed around the piano and further back in the room. From these microphone signals we created 3 easy-to-use mixes (Close, Mid and Far), giving you the flexibility to craft a custom mix which fits your needs, whether you want a dry ‘studio’ sound, or a spacious sound which sits at the back of a mix.

Mechanical Sounds and Sympathetic Resonance

As with our other piano libraries, we have gone the extra mile and captured details of the instrument beyond the notes themselves. You can control the amount of mechanical noise produced when the keys are released and the sustain pedal is used. For this library, we devised a method of isolating the pedal-down sympathetic resonance, meaning we are able to offer control over the amount of resonance produced when the pedal is down. This also means that sympathetic resonance will be produced when the pedal is pressed while notes are already held, instead of only notes which are played after the pedal is pressed.

Atmosphere Layers

Once again, we have brought back our popular ‘Atmosphere Layers’ – playable pads and textures which blend together with the raw piano beautifully.

  • The ‘Glisten‘ layer is a pad made from processed metallic instruments, giving a shimmering sustain.
  • The ‘Frost‘ layer is an evolving reversed granular texture, created by processing the raw piano recordings.
  • The ‘Thaw‘ layer is a smooth pad created from electric guitar feedback, processed through an FX chain.

These layers can be dialled in to taste using the Layer Mixer. Additionally, the global ‘intensity’ of these layers can be controlled using the ‘Atmosphere Intensity‘ dial, or automated in real-time using the mod wheel.

Features

  • Piano harmonics performed on a Steinway Model D concert grand.
  • Beautifully delicate, cinematic and nuanced sound.
  • Recorded in a modern concert hall environment, with 3 mixable microphone positions.
  • 3 custom sound-design atmosphere layers.
  • Controllable key noisepedal noise, and sympathetic resonance.
  • Simple and user-friendly interface.

Warp Academy Serum Jumpstart Masterclass

By | February 17, 2021

Warp Academy Serum Jumpstart Masterclass TUTORIAL

Warp Academy Serum Jumpstart Masterclass TUTORIAL

Our community demanded it, and we’re proud to announce it’s here!  The Serum Jumpstart Sound Design Masterclass is our most epic and insane project ever.

Our whole team has been working furiously on this Masterclass for over a year now and the result is something UNPRECEDENTED.  We did months of research into advanced learning hacks and built this technology into Serum Jumpstart.

All these hacks accelerate learning, increase understanding, and activate new neural pathways in your brain.  You’ll learn more about sound design in Serum, faster, and more completely than any other course.

You’ll also know with confidence that you’ll remember what you’re learning and be able to apply it when it counts in the studio.  After taking this course you’ll be able to:

  • Master Serum and become a legit power user
  • Confidently make the sounds you hear in your head
  • Carve out your own signature sound as a producer
  • Reach your full potential and make music you’re truly proud of

WHAT MAKES SERUM JUMPSTART DIFFERENT?  

The goal of Serum Jumpstart is to have sound design become your new SUPERPOWER, so Warp Academy spent months researching the best way to learn this difficult, but essential skill.  You see, it wasn’t enough for them to make “just another course” on Serum.  This needed to be an absolute masterpiece, and anything less was unacceptable.

They studied how people best learn new languages and complex skills. Their research took them on a wild journey!  It revealed special techniques to hack the learning curve and ensure that what you’re learning is stored in long-term memory.  It’s not what you learn, but what you can REMEMBER, that matters.    

It wasn’t easy building a Masterclass to these standards.  Serum Jumpstart took over 4 times longer to build than a regular course.  Why?  Read on friend…

MICRO-LEARNING

Serum Jumpstart uses a cutting-edge format called “micro-learning” where each video is a bite-sized chunk (5 minutes or less) and only on a single, focused topic.  This means you can easily crush a couple of videos and make real progress towards your goal – even when you only have a few moments.

SPACED REPETITION

This Masterclass uses another special ninja-technique called “spaced repetition”.  Key information is given to you not once, but FOUR times.  This means that going through the course only once gives you as much knowledge as going through another regular course four times over.  It helps the information sink in faster and more deeply for long-term recall.

ALL 3 STYLES OF LEARNING

We also discovered that your brain stores memories in three ways: seeing something, hearing something, and then doing it.  When you integrate all three of these learning styles, you maximize the number of neural pathways you’re building and the memory is “stickier”.

Serum Jumpstart uses a special combination of video instruction, audio examples, and – most importantly – specific and structured practice exercises.  This activates all three styles of learning and builds the strongest memories.

LEARN FASTER & REMEMBER MORE

Bottom line?  All these hacks accelerate learning, increase understanding, and activate new neural pathways in your brain.  You’ll learn more about sound design in Serum, faster, and more completely than any other course.

You’ll also know with confidence that you’ll remember what you’re learning and be able to apply it when it counts in the studio.  We’re so sure of this that we guarantee it.  If you don’t get these results within 60 days, we’ll fully refund you.

IS SERUM JUMPSTART RIGHT FOR YOU?  

Let us ask you this…

  • Have you spent WAY too much time spinning your wheels, not being able to make music you’re proud of?
  • Does your music lack a “signature sound” like other producers seem to have?
  • Do you hear killer sounds in your head, but struggle to make them in the studio?
  • Do you lack confidence in your sound design or find it frustrating?
  • Are you ready to get serious about production and close the gap between you and your favorite producers?
  • Are you ready to finally become the quality of producer you know you’re capable of and reach your full potential?

If you answered yes to any of the questions above, then this is EXACTLY why Serum Jumpstart was built.  It’s so much more than an “online course”.  It’s a complete system to transform your skills as a sound designer.
