Two multi-sampled music boxes

At the core of Music Box Suite are 2 multi-sampled music boxes, both of which feature 4 round-robin. The first is the Victorian music box. This instrument has a warm antique tone. The second is the Tiny music box. This has a bright, sweet sound. By tastefully layering these 2 instruments, new compelling sounds can be made. Also included in Music Box Suite are a few of the winding-up sounds and the ‘whir’ of the music box device. These give you the option to create a fully realistic music box piece.

Organic sound design

This product features a collection of complimentary samples that are designed to work with the real music box samples. This expands Music Box Suite’s potential from more than just realistic music box emulation. The 40 included presets demonstrate this; there are keys, pads and ambient textures. These complimentary sounds are primarily morphed versions of real music box samples, however, there are also a few additional instruments such as a guitar pluck, a glockenspiel and synth strings.

Using the engine's simple interface, instruments can be layered, reversed, looped, tuned and distorted. This pairing of Music Box Suite's samples inside the engine results in a unique tool that is ideal for adding a charming melodic aspect to your track, whether it be an electronic piece or a cinematic one.
