| The Synthscapes CD-ROM features a wide variety of synth textures, leads, pads, basses, and keyboard comping sounds. The sounds were created by combining patches from many classic synths, to achieve unique sounds not found on any individual instrument. How did we do it? First we hired producer/keyboardist Jason Miles and his wall of synthesizers. He brought to the project his most cherished sounds. The sounds were originally designed in his studio by combining timbres on his various instruments until the magic was achieved. The end result is that on one Kurzweil Synthesizer you now have access to these uniquely layered multi- instrument sounds that previously required a room full of the worlds greatest equipment, along with a top-notch producer. In addition to using these great sounds as is, Kurzweil's V.A.S.T. synthesis engine allows you to design an infinite variation of programs based on these sounds. Each sound in this collection is offered in its original basic form with some minor modifications (small amount of reverb or filter), and then what follows are programs created using V.A.S.T. Programming ranges from subtle enhancements, to bringing the timbre into a completely altered domain. This CD captures the inherent sound quality each individual instrument naturally produces; you can hear the separate identities of each of the instruments combined in these single layer, composite synth sample files.
