Does Synthmaster include any of the cinematic sounds that are in Omnisphere 2?
SynthMaster does come ready to play with some excellent quality pads in the factory library of 1300 presets, that can be used in any type of music, including cinematic. In addition to the leads, this is my favorite part of SM.
I wouldn't say that cinematic was the KV331 sound designers primary goal, but SynthMaster can produce any kind of sound really. And the new ZDF filters (zero-delay feedback) are very clean.
It can load full wave samples as well as standard oscillators, single cycle waves, and soon (v2.9) wavetables.
I recently made a patch using one layer with two environmental field recorded waves (rain and ocean waves), and the other layer using a virtual analog oscillator. That kind of sound easily qualifies as ambient, atmospheric, and/or cinematic. But that is more of a DIY project.
The SynthMaster Player version is only $9 this month and includes the full 1300 preset factory library. No deep editing of patches with this version, but it is a cheap way to check out the sounds! It has 8 macro knobs and two x-y pads for performance, so it is playable. Similar to the difference between Rapture Session, and Rapture Pro. But same synth engine in both.
