Available for download, Ice Crystals from Applied Acoustics Systems is a sound pack for the Chromaphone virtual instrument with a decidedly frosty digital flavor. Designed by Richard Veenstra, a Madrid-based Dutch sound designer and composer who works for Elektron, Ableton, Arturia, Native Instruments, and many other music tech companies, the timbres on offer here are well suited to the EDM, techno, electronic, and dance music genres and are also a terrific fit for film and video game scores. If you’re looking for icy bells, detuned digital pads, and bright deep basses that evoke immersive wintry cinematic landscapes and crystalline caves, this sound pack should definitely hit that unique sweet spot.
