Diva Anahera Vol 3 is a collection of 200 sounds for u-he’s Diva.
It follows on from the previous two volumes, as I explore synth programming techniques I more commonly use on my analogue, hybrid and semi-modular synthesizers. Techniques I like to employ on my UDO Super 6, Prophet 5, Virus TI2, Arturia Minibrute 2, Moog Grandmother and my Moog Sound Studio boxes (DFAM, Mother-32 and Subharmonicon).
Anahera Vol 3 takes that hands-on programming and patching vibe and applies it to the stellar analogue modelling sound of Diva to provide a wealth of modern, analogue and virtual analogue style presets for contemporary scoring and electronic music. Its focus is precision, breadth and grit.
It’s full of beefy basses, bruising braams, pulsing rhythms, powerful pads, experimental sequences, quivering textures, and other muscular and delicate synth sounds. Huge analogue blasts of power meet subtle, twitchy textures; providing a wide palate of atmosphere and energy.
Anahera Vol 3 is inspired by a broad range of modern film, TV and game soundtracks: there’s the big and brutal energy of Hans Zimmer* and Tom Holkenborg; the intricate and evolving tones of Cliff Martinez and Mac Quayle; the moody and evocative synthetic layers of Ben Lukas Boysen and Rival Consoles. Also, a number of recent TV soundtracks I’ve enjoyed, such as Ronit Kirchman’s The Sinner, Todor Kobakov’s Cardinal, Atli Orvarsson’s Silo, Peter Peter & Julian Winding’s Copenhagen Cowboy, Travis Stewart/Machinedrum’s Dark Woods and Gaemi’s The Frog.
From the epic to the intimate; from wild, futuristic, sci-fi adventures to downbeat, rain-soaked, thrillers and documentaries; Anahera Vol 3 will add the modern synth noir you need.
Each patch has modwheel programming to add excitement and colour, and Anahera Vol 3 lso includes NKS versions of each patch for using with NI Kontrol keyboards and software.
Diva Anahera Vol 3 is available for £24.99 +VAT. A Diva Anahera Bundle, featuring all three volumes, is available for £48.99 +VAT.
