With Sound Yeti's goal of capturing the essence of calm and peaceful moods in this expansion pack, thier immediate thought was to go analog! They figured nothing soothes the soul quite like the warm sound of tape and the additional sound (im)perfections that only tape and analog gear can deliver.
During the sound design process Sound Yeti combined elements like the hum, crackle, and warble of a reel to reel tape machine, the sounds of a poorly resin-ed bow scratching across strings, and lush sounds of analog synthesizers to usher Ambition into calming places.
Many of these sounds were born through experimental and traditionally “wrong” methods of recording. Introducing noise to a signal chain, manipulating tape during recording, and experimenting with the phasing of certain sounds are a few examples of how they were able to give Relic its certain feeling of immersion and depth. Such techniques give Relic a uniquely fragile, warm, and human feel.
With the help of our immensely talented sound designers commanding a formidable arsenal of gear, Sound Yeti established the sound of Relic with refreshing and exciting textures. Below is a list of all the synths, instruments, hardware, that was used in the creation of the Relic source samples.
