Symphonic Destruction

The Damaged Orchestra

Heavyocity has deconstructed the orchestra—rebuilding it from the ground up to push the bounds of power, creativity, and aggression in modern scoring. Thrilling traditional combinations, visceral sound design and the gnarliest Braams you've ever heard.

More to Damage

This is what it sounds like when Heavyocity apply the epic approach of Damage 2 to the orchestra. A collection of hybrid DAMAGED elements—like Full Orchestra Portatos saturated with analog gear—that attack your cues with the same energy and vigour that you do.

Design Your Score

The heart of Symphonic Destruction (the SD Designer) is all about POWER. Heavyocity rebuilt the orchestra to combine creative organic, inspiring rhythmic, and signature sound design elements, unleashing a new generation of epic, cinematic scores.

Brutalist Braams

The Braams in SD haven't just been created, they've been unearthed from the ground and violently destroyed. Coupled with the innovative Braam Designer—deconstructing each Braam to its unique components—and the endless combinations will ensure your Braam well never runs dry.

Rhythmic Pedals

Whether you're scoring an intense chase scene or a nail-biting thriller, you're going to need dynamic rhythmic elements to drive your scene forward. Good thing SD includes nearly 100 inspiring rhythmic pedals, ranging from the sweet to the severe, the delicate to the destroyed.

Melodic Motifs

Heavyocity know you use 'em (it's okay, they do too). And if you're gonna use loops, you might as well use the best ones out there. And here comes SD to refill your tonal loop tank, complete with the most thrilling, the most inspiring, and the MOST EPIC melodic motif loops you've got in your arsenal.

Sonic Deconstruction

It's an all-new approach to orchestral scoring, combining traditional, hybrid, synth, heavy guitars—anything to level up the epic of your composition. One thing's for sure...the orchestra will never be the same.

Endless Content

It's not just that Symphonic Destruction contains an insane amount of incredibly usable hybrid cinematic content. It's that the powerful SD Engine also contains the sound-shaping capabilities to never stop making that content new.

Instant Cue

True inspiration in an instrument comes from the power to move, challenge, and inspire the composer. Symphonic Destruction is up to the task. Fire it up, and you'll see: In preset after preset, patch after patch, there's a film cue laid out across the 88 keys.
