Layer across libraries
Blend instruments from any library in a single patch. Floe's three-layer architecture, each with its own controls, allow for creating hybrid textures.
Isolated Signals
Gritty digital textures synth
Themed around intercepted radio signals from deep space, Isolated Signals delivers gritty, undulating tonal textures that evoke extraterrestrial civilisations, cosmic phenomena and retrofuturism. Designed by Beautiful Void Audio using resonant filtering to extract tonal peaks from noise — ideal for sci-fi soundtracks, dark ambient productions, and otherworldly sound design.

Create your own textures, pads and keys
Sound design expert, Erick (Beautiful Void Audio), designed Isolated Signals' samples using a wide range of synthesis techniques and processing chains. In particular, he used resonating filters to pull out tonal peaks from sounds that previously didn't have them. The result is unique: the tones are dynamic, spontaneous and gritty. Each of these samples are playable sounds by using an intuitive set of looping controls in the engine. These are categorised into the following types: Distorted, Low-passed, Movement, Rhythmic Movement, Tonal Focus. They can be loaded into any of the engine's 3 layers, where they can be further controlled and processed.
Over 200 categorised and themed presets
Isolated Signals comes with 211 presets. These are categorised in-line with our theme: ‘radio signals from deep space’. You can imagine you are an operator at a radio astronomy observatory. What are the characteristics of the signals that you are receiving from space? Where might they originate from? And how might that be represented sonically or musically? In the preset categories, we use words such as: Hostile, Benevolent, Heavenly to suggest the emotion of the preset. And words such as Fluctuating, Broken, Corrupt or Impulse-hit suggest the timbral characteristic of the preset.
