Spectrasonics Omnisphere used in the soundtrack for '127 Hours'!
Monday, January 10, 2011
Back in February 2009, we reported how composer AR Rahman (who has been named by Time magazine as one of the world's Top 100 Most Influential People') had used Philtre Lab's Bollywood Grooves and Spectrasonics' Stylus RMX in the award winning score for Danny Boyle's film 'Slumdog Millionaire'.
Today we were excited to hear that Spectrasonics Omnisphere has been used by Rahman in the soundtrack for Danny Boyle's latest movie '127 Hours'.
In regards to the rich sound design of the "127 Hours" score, AR explains, “There is a lot of Omnisphere in this score. I recorded many textures from Omnisphere and bounced them as audio, then mixed them with live strings and played with processing the result. We especially used the granular synthesis capabilities of Omnisphere, which was tweaked and overlaid with of a lot guitars, especially in the ‘Touch of the Sun’ and ‘RIP’ cues; (director) Danny Boyle loved the sound.”
AR Rahman’s score for "127 Hours" is nominated for a Golden Globe Award in the “Best Music” category.
