Facing tight deadlines? Prefer to focus on making music instead of moonlighting as a preset scientist? The presets included in these products were made by top engineers and sound-designers around the world and together offer over 750 new presets to use either as-is, or as starting points for further refinement and customization.
Creative Impetus
2CAudio prides itself on being an innovative company, and deeply values creativity. This leads us to design maxmium flexibility into our products and avoid artificial limits on parameters. Aether therefore, allows more extreme parameter ranges than any other reverb on the market. Does it excel at FX-oriented presets and venture into territory that few other products explore? Absolutely! Is it limited to FX-oriented presets? Hell no! To prove it to you we have initiated the development of Aether Preset Expansions. The initial primary goal of these products is to demonstrate just how versatile Aether is, and prove that is excels in all areas.
The secondary goal, which of course is also an important one, is simply to offer more professionally designed, ready-to-use presets which help beginners and professionals alike get the most out of the product as quickly as possible. The presets included in these products were made by top engineers and sound-designers around the world and together offer users of all levels over 750 new presets to either use as-is, or use as starting points for further refinement to meet the needs of the project. Adding all preset expansions to the existing factory presets will result in over 1,200 presets to choose from, and the Preset Browser has recently been enhanced with a three tier organization system and keyword search to make it even easier to find what you are looking for within this massive library. Combining these presets with Aether's Frequency Profiles feature in Aether results in hundreds of thosands of possible variations without turning a single knob!
These preset expansions represent our top-shelf, reserve-stock efforts and make use of all of the new Aether 1.5 and 1.6 features. Purchase of these expansions is purely optional, but we highly encourage you to consider it since these additional 750 presets definately show off some of the most extraordinary abilities of Aether and really enhance its value. The choice is yours.
Precision Halls Expansion
The Aether Precisions Halls Expansion focusses on high precision hall and large space emulations. It was created by our good friend Deneb Pinjo and offers over 200 new world-class presets. Den's preset work with Aether and other third party reverb products came to prominence over the past three years in online communities such as Gearslutz and KVR. Over the span of this time, Den diligently and obsessively tweaked and revised these presets and generously offered a myriad of revisions that were highly acclaimed by the community. His passion and effort was universally applauded, and many new users as well as Aether veterans have stated that his work is among the best that has been done for Aether in terms of available presets. This expansion represets his final revision and it has been optimized for Aether 1.6.0 to make use of the new features such as the per-preset oversampling and modulation options. Profits from this product will be shared with Den, as many have suggested, to compensate him for the tremendous effort that went into this contribution.
