Riot Audio have released Candifloss, available at the intro price of £59.00, increasing to £89.00 after the promotion.
Based on a unique category-based sound architecture (BODY, GRANULAR, TEXTURE), CANDYFLOSS is a sample-based virtual instrument that is tailored to producing pads with rich, complex high frequency elements. It draws on 60 organic sounds processed through various forms of granular treatment as a basis for musical sound design. Although technically a sample library, the architecture and resulting sounds are more reminiscent of a synth.
Candyfloss’s pulses, pads and other sounds combine glistening high frequency pearls, frothy mid-range rasps and grainy streaks with close-mic’ed acoustic instrument drones and washes inside an engine that allows for extensive time-based modulation and motion. The result are immediately intriguing patches with a huge depth of sonic interest that evolve over time.
