This preset library was been inspired by gritty synth infused sounds from the 80's, like those used by Cliff Martinez to create the Drive soundtrack and the cinematic sounds of Vangelis in Bladerunner and Chariots of Fire. The library also incorporates a modern twist on the retro genre, with sounds inspired by artists like Chvrches, M83, Kavinsky, College, Boards of Canada and Charli XCX, and can be adapted to suit almost any style of music, from light synth pop, to dark electronic, to epic and cinematic scores.

The pack contains a total of 120 presets for FM8 version 1.2 or higher. Each sound has been tagged and categorized for easy loading of the library, and many take advantage of the mod wheel and FM8s powerful morph-square, adding endless variations to the already lush palate of textures and timbres.
