EMPYREAL AD is an advanced atmosphere designer, streamlined to be as creative and as easy to use as possible. For too long, manually designing quality atmospheres has been a painful and intricate process with much sample editing and layering of effects. Now you can use the EMPYREAL engine to bring your soundscapes to life with cutting edge tools. Use the huge number of supplied samples or drag-and-drop your own atmospheres.
Adjust and animate loop points, playback direction and loop position with ease to create constantly evolving timbres that you’ll never hear the same way twice. Add a host of FX and chains that can be animated on the fly for total creative freedom, all packed into a logical and ergonomic user experience. This means easy navigation with an efficient dual core sound engine geared perfectly for tempo-synced motion via LFOs, FX sequencers and an automatable blend mixer. With over 1,000 sounds and the ability to load your own samples, EMPYREAL is a virtual instrument environment that will become your new go-to for generating atmospheres without limits!
Crafting The Sound – CHOOSE OUR SOUNDS, OR YOURS -> REMIXED
For EMPYREAL AD the Sample Logic design team spent countless hours in research and development to build an engine not just for preset playback, but to help you conjure your own custom creations using the flexible EMPYREAL engine. It has never been easier to inject motion into your sounds with the ability to shape and automate never-ending variables. Taking performance beyond standard preset playback, the EMPYREAL engine has been built with the ability to drag your own custom samples into each sound core and let the engine perform magnificent transformations, making familiar sounds unrecognizable. Truly a remarkable feat of software engineering.
The User Interface – INTERFACE ERGONOMICS
For instant gratification, EMPYREAL makes it easy to achieve quick and dirty results, but with little effort take a deep dive into the engine’s myriad of parameter pages to unleash its true core power. It all begins with the interface divided into 4 main sections that govern the two cores (A/B): Main, Edit, FX, Master. This provides an efficient management system for interacting with each core. Easily adjust the individual elements of either core and switch back and forth on the fly. Once you’ve set up the instrument to your needs, use the main view to access only the essential parameters, keeping your workflow clutter-free and streamlined.
MAIN: The Main view is the central dashboard view, where you can blend between 2 atmospheres cores and change any of the major playback aspects of the instrument. With multiple preset browsers, swap out core presets, sound sources, or the entire main instrument preset. In love with a preset? Favorite it right inside the browser so you can revisit it at any time. The Main section is not only a home for your instrument, but a launching point to access the atmosphere’s waveform parameters, core level FX and the master FX chain.
EDIT: The Edit view is where you can make in-depth adjustments with surgical precision. Tweak loop points, loop position, playback direction, volume, pan, tuning, filtering and envelopes. Most of these parameters can also be animated, for surprising playback characteristics.
FX: The FX view offers up a host of powerful hot-swappable FX, powered by the latest features of Kontakt’s internal FX engine, all fully integrated into the EMPYREAL. Along with the built-in FX chain presets and predesigned customizable animations, the creative possibilities are limitless.
MASTER: The Master view is where core A & B come together, with a customizable mastering FX chain to really make your sounds sparkle. Choose from more than 30 powerful mastering FX to polish your finalized atmosphere, making it mix-ready for any production.
INTELLIGENT RANDOMIZATION
Generate your own unique atmosphere in less than a second! Simple to use, yet fiendishly potent, the randomization features of EMPYREAL will keep your creative juices flowing. Rapidly tap into trillions of starting point combinations with added creative FX. Simply arm the randomizable parameters that you need, then roll the dice. The interface’s intelligent randomization technology will generate inspiring results on the spot, every time!

Universal Tonality: The Life & Music of William Parker PDF
Since ascending onto the world stage in the 1990s as one of the premier bassists and composers of his generation, William Parker has perpetually toured around the world and released over forty albums as a leader. He is one of the most influential jazz artists alive today. In Universal Tonality historian and critic Cisco Bradley tells the story of Parker’s life and music.
Drawing on interviews with Parker and his collaborators, Bradley traces Parker’s ancestral roots in West Africa via the Carolinas to his childhood in the South Bronx, and illustrates his rise from the 1970s jazz lofts and extended work with pianist Cecil Taylor to the present day. He outlines how Parker’s early influences—Ornette Coleman, John Coltrane, Albert Ayler, and writers of the Black Arts Movement—grounded Parker’s aesthetic and musical practice in a commitment to community and the struggle for justice and freedom. Throughout, Bradley foregrounds Parker’s understanding of music, the role of the artist, and the relationship between art, politics, and social transformation. Intimate and capacious, Universal Tonality is the definitive work on Parker’s life and music.
Vacuum tube (or also called valve in Great Britan) is electronic component / device used in audio industry mainly as amplification component before transistors were found.
While transistors are cheaper and more effective with longer lifetime, vacuum tubes are very popular until today and preferred by many audiophiles from hi-end listening rooms (vacuum tube amps) to professional recording / mixing studios (equalizers, preamps, compressors and warming devices).
The type of vacuum tube known as a thermionic tube / valve uses the phenomenon of thermionic emission of electrons from a hot cathode (electrons are emitted in vacuum tube space of glass tube) with use of heater supply (that is why tube is glowing) and is used for a number of fundamental electronic functions such as signal amplification.
Thanks to heather inside tube not just vacuum tube is hot, but also sound is significantly warmer. Signal is not going thru wires but thru vacuum tube “space” and electrons are “flying” from hot cathode (warmed with heater) to anode – where amplified signal is received.
This phenomenon affect signal / sound in way appreciated by audiophiles – transients and trebles are not so sharp – they are smoother, rounder and more pleasant to ears, signal is saturated – bass is fatter and warmer, mids and trebles are colored.
Everyone Loves Live Music: A Theory of Performance Institutions PDF
For decades, millions of music fans have gathered every summer in parks and fields to hear their favorite bands at festivals such as Lollapalooza, Coachella, and Glastonbury. How did these and countless other festivals across the globe evolve into glamorous pop culture events, and how are they changing our relationship to music, leisure, and public culture? In Everyone Loves Live Music, Fabian Holt looks beyond the marketing hype to show how festivals and other institutions of musical performance have evolved in recent decades, as sites that were once meaningful sources of community and culture are increasingly subsumed by corporate giants.
Examining a diverse range of cases across Europe and the United States, Holt upends commonly-held ideas of live music and introduces a pioneering theory of performance institutions. He explores the fascinating history of the club and the festival in San Francisco and New York, as well as a number of European cities. This book also explores the social forces shaping live music as small, independent venues become corporatized and as festivals transform to promote mainstream Anglophone culture and its consumerist trappings. The book further provides insight into the broader relationship between culture and community in the twenty-first century. An engaging read for fans, industry professionals, and scholars alike, Everyone Loves Live Music reveals how our contemporary enthusiasm for live music is more fraught than we would like to think.
