Unhinged for Omnisphere 3 - Unify 2 Enhanced

Open the door. See what happens.

Somewhere between sound design and musical experimentation lies Unhinged for Omnisphere 3, a collection built from the strange, mechanical character of doors, drawers, appliances and everyday objects, transformed into a dark and highly playable world of cinematic sound.

At the heart of Unhinged are 88 custom recorded field recordings, capturing everything from slamming and sliding doors to mechanical movements, appliance noises, resonant ambiences and even the hypnotic tick of a beautifully recorded clock. These sounds have been stretched, layered, processed, mangled and reshaped into something far removed from their original sources.

The result is 450 Omnisphere 3 patches and 18 Multis ranging from raw mechanical sounds and unusual percussion to deep drones, evolving textures, rhythmic pulses, dark plucks, cinematic impacts and strange playable instruments.

Some patches reveal their origins immediately. Others take the recordings somewhere much darker.

A door becomes a massive cinematic impact.

A mechanical rattle becomes a rhythmic pulse.

An appliance hum becomes a shifting atmospheric drone.

A clock becomes something hypnotic and strangely musical.

And sometimes a sound simply becomes Unhinged.

The original Sound FX Vol 1 for Omnisphere 2 collection has been brought forward in its entirety, with 64 brand new patches expanding the library from 386 to 450 patches. The result is a significantly expanded collection that takes the original concept further into darker, more cinematic and experimental territory.

The expanded sound palette now includes:

• 88 custom field recordings
• Doors, drawers and mechanical movements
• Appliance doors and unusual appliance noises
• Mechanical ambience and resonant textures
• A wonderfully strange tick tock clock
• Raw and heavily processed sound sources
• Cinematic impacts and hits
• Dark drones and evolving atmospheres
• Rhythmic pulses and BPM synced sequences
• Experimental percussion
• Unusual plucks and playable instruments
• Textures, risers and sound design elements
• 18 Multis
• Unify 2 Enhanced edition

Unhinged's character comes from real mechanical movement, physical objects and unexpected acoustic sources, then pushes those sounds through the enormous sonic possibilities of Omnisphere.

The result is a collection with an organic, unpredictable quality that works beautifully in cinematic music, dark ambient, experimental production, trailer music, games, sound design and electronic music.

There is something wonderfully unsettling about taking a sound you recognize and turning it into something you don't.

Unhinged is a collection of those sounds.

Open the door.

Step inside.

And leave ordinary sounds behind.
