A hybrid synthesizer for juicy pads, bright leads, and complex atmospheric textures. Sonora Cinematic is pleased to introduce Porphyra: Hybrid Synthesizer, an innovative synthesizer created in collaboration with Ocean Swift Synthesis that combines a powerful wavetable engine with sampling capabilities, providing precise control and rich sonic textures that go far beyond typical wavetable/sampling hybrids.
Porphyra Hybrid is built around a unique dual-layer engine that combines the power of a wavetable synthesizer on one layer and a sampler on the other. There are also numerous modulation options, a huge array of sampled sounds and wavetables, and the ability to import your own samples, offering extensive sound exploration and manipulation capabilities that leverage Kontakt 8’s new state-of-the-art synthesis features and high-quality effects.
Music producers and composers can now craft their soundscapes with exceptional precision and depth, whether they’re creating lush pads, vibrant leads, or complex atmospheric textures.
