Welcome to the tantalizing world of Airwaves produced by well-respected UK sound designer Ian Boddy. All the sounds in this fascinating sample library were recorded using a high quality and powerful radio transceiver. This provided the raw data of strange garbled voices, buzzing interference patterns and hidden morse code signals that Boddy transformed into Airwaves.

Many of the samples you will hear are virtually untouched other than using some judicious EQ and compression to "clean up" the material. All the sounds are originally recorded in mono and some have been further processed in stereo using an arsenal of plug-ins to enhance and complement the mood and atmosphere of these intriguing sounds.

The Kontakt 2 programs are a simple C0 - C6 keyspan with C3 as the root key and a basic envelope and low-pass filter provided. The modulation wheel is set to turn the cut-off of the filter down as it is raised. No other programming is included as the sounds themselves are "finished" and it is intended to give the user the flexibility of adding their own effects and modulations if desired.

For more detailed info on the contents of Airwaves, please take a look at the PDF Manual.

Airwaves is also available as part of Odyssey: an amazing value compilation of eight Ian Boddy sound design libraries, including Outer Limits, Ambiosis, Elektrolytic, ASL, Beatalogue, Drumalogue and Radiophonica. Click here to go to the Odyssey product page.
