In this new soundset you will find sounds usable in all kinds of electronic music as well as modern pop and soundtrack, atmospheric contexts. The set contains 49 Amber sounds and 51 of their Fusor counterparts. Various modulation capabilities are used, including mod-wheel and aftertouch and all 8 macros are assigned in Fusor. In connection with Amber's architecture, there is a lot of pad and string-like sounds in the set, but also interesting FX presets, synths, keys, textures and others.
