Hollow Sun TriOsc Kontakt

Styled on equipment retrieved from an ancient, disused rocket launch control centre, TriOsc features three oscillators with samples of valve sine and triangle waveforms taken from a rack of vintage test equipment to create dense clusters of retro sci-fi electronica.

Unique to TriOsc, however, is the 'SERENDIPITY' button (labelled '?'). You see, TriOsc has a mind and being of its own.
Clicking this button generates new patches and sounds randomly that instantly evoke the spirit and electronic tonalities of the early Radiophonic Workshop, 'Forbidden Planet' and other classic sci-fi movies, Morton Subotnick, Tristram Cary and other early electronic music pioneers working with primitive equipment - an astonishing source of inspiration which can lead you down different roads of musical ideas and exploration. The randomly generated sounds can then be tweaked and shaped to your own particular needs using the comprehensive panel. They can even be saved as normal NKIs for future use.

But while this random sound generation is arguably TriOsc's raison d'etre, it is also capable of subtle pads, leadlines and sub-basses for more modern musical genres. Its greatest strength, however, is the random creation of abstract electronic sounds which could have come from crusty analogue sound generators of yesteryear.

The multi-wave LFO allows the mixing of simultaneous waveforms for complex control shapes which can be used for frequency modulation (FM) and amplitide modulation (AM) with the envelope generator allowing pitch sweeps. The POLY / MONO switch enables different playback modes according to your requirements. All this is then fed to a chain of multi-FX that includes distortion, cab simulation, chorus, phase shifting, rotary cab, echo and convolved reverb featuring Hollow Sun's acclaimed custom impulses which include spring reverbs, rooms, halls, churches and massive 'space' ambiences and washes.
