Key Features
1. Rhythms – Create Haunting Pulse and Motion
Build tension with an intuitive 16-step sequencer powered by nearly 1,000 string-based samples. From screeches and plucks to unsettling knocks and ricochets, the Rhythms Engine gives you complete control over:
- Volume, panning, length, and tuning adjustments for every step.
- Seamless DAW sync across various time signatures.
- Randomization options for instant inspiration.
- Prebuilt pattern menus with ready-to-use custom setups.
With its per-step controls and global FX (distortion, delay, reverb), you can effortlessly craft ominous loops and patterns that sync perfectly with your project.
2. Hits – Impact with Cinematic Power
Transform live string manipulations into terrifying cinematic hits and whooshes. The 4-layer engine combines:
- 80 whoosh effects, 40 percussive hits, and nearly 1,000 one-shot samples.
- Independent layer controls for pitch, attack, release, and high/low-pass filters.
- Fully customizable layers with randomization for endless combinations.
Create impacts that range from subtle, eerie textures to earth-shattering explosions of sound.

Elevate your compositions with the Risers Engine, featuring:
- 3 hand-crafted layers of manipulated string risers.
- Customizable riser lengths (2, 4, or 8 bars) that sync to your DAW.

Every riser is designed to instill fear, stretch tension, and lead into dramatic transitions.
