PURGATORY - HIFI/LOFI Binaural Synth Samples

Want to try the sounds out first? Download our teaser pack here.

Introducing PURGATORY - a one-shot synth sample pack where we pan or stack a lo-fi and hi-fi version of the same sound across the stereo field. The result is what I describe as liminal because it's this cool halfway point between two extremely different but similar sounds.

PURGATORY is my favorite sample pack to date. The sounds you find in here are so unique and useful at the same time.

We spent months designing the most unique but useful sounds we could on the UDO Super 6. This is one of my favorite synthesizers ever because it allows you to create your own waveforms, introduce analog randomness, and then run the sounds through my favorite filter—the SSM 2044.

After we had the hi-fi sound recordings, we processed those through the Casio SK-1 from 1986 to degrade the sound and turn them lo-fi. The sound is almost unrecognizable after going through this process, and it adds so much character to the sound.

After we had both versions of the sound, we panned them across the stereo field, creating this auditory illusion of distance and dimension. I cannot think of anything that sounds like it; it's such an exciting auditory experience.

To further enhance the curious stereo experience, we also optionally ran each of the samples through an analog spring reverb, resulting in a weird spatial texture that is just purely addictive to listen to.
