Ueberschall - Ambient Textures (ELASTIK)

Ambient Textures contains 2 GB and 216 loops. The samples are organized in four different folders: Harmonic Ambiences, Drum Textures, Percussion FX and Unperfect Loops. From dreamy, hypnotic musical beds through to dark, menacing moods, Ambient Textures is a perfect choice for media composers and sound designers looking for new inspiration.

A collection of harmonic ambience loops organized into small kits of loops with loops from each kit designed to be layered. The loops are long (many well over 30 seconds) and containing evolving soundbeds. These harmonic samples can be augmented with the a series of drum and percussion textures. All the loops in this second element have been processed and, with the powerful time-stretching features of Elastik, can be time-stretched to match any tempo required. The final element is a series of ‘unperfect loops’ with both rhythmic and non-rhythmic sounds, noises and sound FX.

Ambient Textures provides an ideal collection of source material for busy sound designers and composers working in film, TV, commercials, games, documentaries, advertising or other background music/audio applications.

1-Harmonic Ambiences
This folder contain long ambiences which can be layered to create rich harmonic sounds. Each subfolder offers up to seven different layers.

2-Drum Textures
These folders contain abstract and heavily edited drum loops.

3-Percussion FX
A collection of altered percussion loops.

4-Unperfect Loops
This folder includes a selection of rhythmic and non-rhythmic ambient sounds from static noises to abstract strings and floating harmonies. The subfolders are named to give an idea of the sound, for example „Water“, „Noisy“ or „Static“.


Elastik Player

The Elastik Player is the ideal tool for fast and modern music production. All installed Ueberschall libraries are organized in a keyword-based browser. With the advanced pitch and stretch algorithms developed by zplane all loops and samples can be matched to any project with ease.

Ambient Textures can make good use of Elastiks capabilities to stretch and pitch sounds to alter them even further. Additional features like reverse, formant or multimode filter offer lots of potential for creative sounddesign.
