Waverunner is my brand-new patch library for Spectrasonics Omnisphere 2, created in collaboration with MIDIhead and ILIO. This one was a really fun project to work on—I wanted to capture the synth sounds of the ‘80s and early ‘90s but with a modern edge, taking full advantage of Omnisphere’s deep sound design and effects capabilities.
The sounds in Waverunner pull from a wide range of influences. I was just as inspired by the polished synth tones of The Weeknd, The Midnight, and FM-84 as I was by the lo-fi, chillwave textures of HOME, Hotel Pools, and Memorex Memories. Whether you’re making retro synthwave, dreamy chillwave, or something in between, there should be plenty here to spark ideas.
The library includes 119 synth patches, each with full effects chains, modulation routings, and descriptions, all neatly organised to make it easy to find the right sound when inspiration strikes.
