“One of the things that I'm most proud of with Bloom KSHMR Lite is the process and the people involved in making the sounds for it” - KSHMR

KSHMR himself carefully curated every sound in Bloom KSHMR Lite. He collaborated with talented instrumentalists who captured the recordings throughout India and the wider South Asian region. They meticulously recorded using a blend of high-end analog gear and contemporary production techniques to preserve raw character while enhancing sonic depth.

The result is a library where every hit, strum and shake bursts with organic detail and expressive energy, ready to drive your music forward.

Inside Bloom KSHMR Lite, you'll find a wide range of instruments to explore from light percussive tablas and dhols through to massive bollywood-style drum circles, a variety of bansuri flute loops and one-shots, strummed and stringed instruments including sitars, rababs and ouds as well a variety of authentic and expressive vocal loops.
 

How it Works

Stay in the creative flow - trigger individual sounds with white notes and launch phrases or tweak properties with black notes. Four powerful macros (Lo-Fi, Drive, Slap Delay & Multi Delay) let you shape your sound, while a range of 75 presets get you moving fast.

The Main Page

In addition to high-pass and low-pass filtering, three effects await you in the Edit page. Noise helps to add layers of crunch and texture to a sound by mixing in a layer of noise from a choice of Vinyl Crackle, Cassette, White Noise and more. Reverb adds space to sounds with characterful Plate, Hall, or Spring types. A Dynamics processor helps to shape transients as well as Gate or Compress the signal to bring out the details.
