Each hardware profile has a corresponding set of sounds in the Hardware Library which were specially designed using that hardware synth as the controller. These inspiring new sounds feature a wide range of categories and many have a distinctly ‘classic’ flavor! Notably, the 2.6 update takes Eric’s classic sound design work from the original 1987 Roland D-50 into completely new sonic territory with Omni sphere’s vast synthesis capabilities. Best of all, the new sounds are available for ALL users, regardless of using the hardware or not!

Since the beginning, It has been the sonic weapon of choice for creative players and producers in search of next-level sounds on hit records, bestselling games, and Oscar-winning films.
