Audiofier Micron SANDS

Each MICRON library is meticulously crafted around a specific genre, mood, or application. We’re talking laser-focused sonic palettes that nail the sound you’re after, whether it’s the suspenseful atmosphere for your next thriller, the driving pulse of a rock anthem, or the intricate layers of a modern electronic arrangement.

The XY Playable libraries are designed for more conventional musical performance, allowing users to play chords or melodies.

Cinematic Soundscapes from the Edge of Time:

SANDS is a cinematic Kontakt library crafted to evoke vast deserts, ancient traditions, and distant horizons. It blends elemental textures with modern sound design, enabling you to create immersive, emotionally rich soundscapes that feel timeless and evocative.

More than just an instrument, SANDS is a playable atmosphere—inviting you to explore stories rooted in history, nature, and the unfolding future.

Unleash the power of our innovative 4-layer instrument, complete with an intuitive XY pad, and craft evolving soundscapes that will transport your listeners. With a vast collection of meticulously designed sound sources, the possibilities are endless. Create infinite unique patches using the randomisation feature and instantly inject vintage wonder into your productions.

SANDS is a cinematic sound library shaped by pressure, texture, and atmosphere. Each layer feels physical and alive—like sound formed from wind, breath, and distant landscapes. Aleatoric strings introduce a natural unpredictability, adding emotional tension and movement without relying on rhythm. Flute textures drift in and out, bringing an organic quality, like air flowing through ancient ruins.

Use the wind layers to give your scenes space and dimension, or blend in choirs to introduce a human presence—calm, reverent, or reflective. Designed with a four-layer engine and real-time XY control, SANDS offers you the tools to shape evolving soundscapes that feel elemental, expressive, and cinematic.

These textures aren’t sterile—they crackle, hum, and shift like materials shaped by heat, sand, and time. There’s a constant sense of movement and transformation: tones rise and fall, textures evolve naturally, and layered environments feel more like living spaces than static patches.

Whether you're scoring something ancient, futuristic, or somewhere in between, SANDS gives you a sonic language of scale and slow-building emotional impact.

Twist reality with the intuitive reverse patch, reversing each sample layer on the fly to uncover unexpected sonic textures. Sculpt rhythmic pulses and evolving dynamics with the per-layer step volume, adding intricate motion to your four-layered sound designs.

This library is designed for full playability, thanks to its detailed multi-sampling across a broad range of notes. This ensures consistent character as you move across the keyboard.

Features:

1. Kontakt Library (5.8.1 or above)
2. It requires Kontakt's full retail version. It will not work with the free Kontakt Player. Sounds And Presets Installation requires the PULSE DOWNLOADER
3. Chordal Capability: These libraries are built to handle chords effectively.
4. Layer Range Definition: A key distinguishing feature is the ability to define the keyboard range for each individual layer. This is useful for creating keyboard splits or ensuring specific sound sources (e.g., bass) don’t overpower certain frequency ranges. Layers can also be set to progressively fade out across their defined range.
5. Features include the XY pad for crossfading, individual volume, sound selection, mute/solo buttons, waveform display, and per-layer controls for pan, pitch, attack, release, low-pass/high-pass filters, sample start, “dirt” (saturation/compression/distortion), delay, and convolution reverb with over 150 impulse responses. Master controls for portamento and randomization are also universally present. All XY libraries also offer a separate output option for each of the four layers.
6. Poly/Mono Button: Some XY Playable libraries include a “Poly/Mono” button, allowing specific layers, especially those with “soloist” sound sources, to be played monophonically.
