WORLD-CLASS SEQUENCING
INNOVATE AND CREATE
GAMELAN expands on the earth-shattering power of Sample Logic’s previous virtual instruments by combining atmospheres, instrumentals, percussives, and loops into a single interface for unlimited mix and match possibilities. By adapting the revolutionary tools that made Cinematic Guitars Infinity so powerful, GAMELAN introduces single core instruments to provide more nuanced control over a single core of the instrument. Make massive ambiences, crushing impacts, complex loops, soaring leads, or even create stacked multis with all of the above triggered by a single note with ease in the massively powerful GAMELAN…or use one of the thousands of included preset instruments.
ULTIMATE POWER
Keeping with Sample Logic’s tradition of innovation, GAMELAN includes the acclaimed Step Animator sequencing engine, bringing world-class arpeggiation and sequencing to your fingertips. With the new Link/Alt mode, you can now select individual sound cores to be triggered by each step of the Step Animator while unselected sound cores sustain! In addition to this mind-blowing power, GAMELAN also includes Sample Logic’s XY functionality for perfectly intuitive FX mixing and animation, and the 3D Mixer for incredible sound core mixing and automation. The possibilities are truly endless!
INTUITIVE CORE NAVIGATION, INFINITE SOUND COMBINATIONS
Start from the simplest seed element of a sound and work outward with GAMELAN’s intuitive interface. All sound sources are loaded into a sound core, each of which is capable of playing back two sound sources simultaneously, and is packed with powerful FX including reverb, delay, convolution, filters, distortion, and much more. Take the creation even further by using up to 4 sound cores simultaneously (multi cores), allowing you to create infinite blends of up to 8 sound sources. In addition, Master FX can be applied to all sound cores, and create truly impressive results.
Don’t have enough time to build your own? No problem! GAMELAN includes over 780 sound sources, 700 sound core presets, 1400 single core instrument presets, and 260 ready-to-use multi core instrument presets giving users nearly 3,200 sonic combinations to work with.
A TOOLKIT OF INFINITE SOUNDS
ADVANCED RANDOMIZATION WITH ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES
Utilizing Sample Logic’s intelligent randomization technology, the Gamelan interface raises the bar on usability of randomization features. By taking fragments of human-generated presets, and reassembling them, this intelligent randomization leads to randomly generated, epic-sounding presets every time. Now, with the inclusion of all types of sounds in a single interface, Sample Logic has added a randomization drop down to specify the types of sounds and settings to be selected from during the randomization process. Want to create an atmosphere instrument on the fly? Use the drop down menu to select atmospheres. Do the same to select from instrumentals, percussives, and loops, or throw caution to the wind and select from all categories at once. This function is great for building multi-stacked instruments, sure to fire up your creativity!
