Creative Sound Design Environment
Turn Noise Into Music
Sonora Cinematic Harmonic Bloom for the free Kontakt Player exploits the concept of the harmonic series to turn noise into unique and distinctive musical material that can be used in your compositions.
From calm and reflective organic soundscapes to dark and imposing mechanical pads and textures, Harmonic Bloom offers an awe-inspiring array of sound design possibilities – and that’s just with the built-in noises and sound sources! Import your own samples into the easy to use interface to craft rich, complex and captivating instruments like no other.
How It Works
Drag and drop any “noisy” sample into the GUI or choose from one of the 30 included flavours of noise and simply start extracting harmonics from these chaotic waveforms to obtain a musical pitch.
That’s just the beginning… use the plethora of built-in LFOs to independently modulate the panning, volume and filters of each single harmonic. Creating lush, evolving soundscapes is as easy as turning just a few knobs!
The noise is only half the story of this incredible tool. Add a second layer from a curated selection of deep sampled sound sources ranging from rare instruments to classic analog synths, guitars to reamped acoustic instruments and more.
Ever wondered how a French horn played through an electric guitar tube amp sounds like? How about a classic analog synth from the ‘60s passed on cassette and through a granular processor? With Harmonic Bloom there are numerous combinations with which to explore and experiment. Check out the video below to experience some of the sounds...
Whether you want to achieve a heavenly, ethereal and delicate soundscape, powerful, ominous and disturbing textures, or just looking for something to inspire a new piece of music, Harmonic Bloom is a spectacular sound design playground.
What's New?
Version 1.3
Harmonic Bloom v1.3 features 78 additional presets created exclusively for Sonora Cinematic by five exceptionally talented artists to give you even more creative possibilities and inspiration. Let's take a closer look at who they are...
- r beny is the ambient electronics project of Northern California-based artist Austin Cairns. Drawing upon the ineffable wonder and volatility of nature and emotion, r beny braids synthesizers, samplers, and tape loops to a chorus of texture and melody carved out of a sea of noise.
- Widely respected for his genre-defying rule breaking, his forward-thinking creativity and his pioneering technical skill, Si Begg has carved a reputation for himself as both artist and DJ, and now award winning composer for film and television including scoring the Netflix show 'Tour de France: Unchained" and high profile trailers including Blade Runner 2049, Jason Bourne, and Oscar winner Parasite, to name just a few.
- Acclaimed Radiophonic Workshop collaborator and Brighton-based electronic producer MATTHS (Matt Hodson) presents dark, brooding and extreme techno. Using a bespoke modular synth setup, his live show then re-works the songs, as he reprograms the melodies through different filters and oscillators, re-interpreting them into sometimes very different beasts.
- UK-based Turkish artist Elif Yalvaç creates music using an array of instruments including guitars, synthesizers, field recordings, and Game Boy. Her music has received international acclaim and, in addition to composition, performance, and production, she teaches electronic music at Guildhall School of Music & Drama in London.
- Patricia Wolf is a musician, sound designer, field recordist and DJ residing in Portland, Oregon. Wolf’s work sonically unites natural and modern worlds, integrating ecological sources into her minimalist compositions. Using melody and repetition, she conjures vivid textures and atmospheres imbued with emotion.
