The Unfinished / Zebra Velium

[Piet De Ridder]

"Zebra Vellum is a collection of 200 cinematic patches for u-he’s Zebra2 synth.

This soundset is designed to encapsulate a special world, where sci-fi meets ethnic, where epic meets intimate. An elemental, enticing, widescreen romance of small stories told on a huge scale. Think Cliff Martinez’s Solaris, Bear McCreary’s Battlestar Galactica, John Murphy’s Sunshine or Greg Edmonson’s Firefly. Futurism and technology clash with the raw and the low-key: the tiny details of individual struggles drawn on a large canvas. The ambience within Zebra Vellum reflects these stories. Sounds of glass, metal, wood, dirt and light, reflected in echoing spaces. There are lush mallet sequences, transparent glassy pads, grinding mechanical basses, rippling industrial soundscapes, blissful exotic leads and relentless colourful percussion. A true blend of the organic and inorganic. Simultaneously natural and unnatural. As well as providing a strong, naturalistic, sci-fi feel, this soundset has a great collection of sounds for all forms of modern hybrid scoring, and also ambient, industrial and electronic.

Zebra Vellum comes with comprehensive programming via the modwheel and the performance X/Y pads, giving the sounds extra life and you extra control.

There is also a Dark Edition of Zebra Vellum available, which comes with an additional 200 patches, where I have remixed and optimised the original Vellum patches for ZebraHZ, to give a darker, more analogue vibe. The Dark Edition also contains the original 200 patches.

Zebra Vellum will be available for £24.99 +VAT, with the Dark Edition at £34.99 +VAT."

This sounds really nice! Never purchased a preset pack yet for Zebra, but this got me interested. Nice job Matt! (love the part in your video where you say wooden tickie clickie sort of stuff. That is always how I name my presets, woodyclicky1 etc hahaha, how do you make up all those names of those sounds!).
Looking forward to see this released on friday!

After 2 days of browsing all your stuff (should have done that ages before....) I can say this has been released and looking forward to start working with it and incorporate it in my work. Also got myself 2 other zebra sets and the Colossus 2 and nice discount with that custom bundle option.
Thanks Matt for all this great work. I knew your stuff, but never really looked into presets that deep, but ehm, that changed now!

I rarely buy expansion packs for my synths but when I do Matt's are the first and often the last I check out. Maybe the best way to expand ones palette at an inexpensive price.

Yes indeed and I don't know if you feel the same way, but they actually trigger also again my own creativity and way of thinking. I love making sounds in Zebra (and also Omni), but I am nowhere in the leaugue of Matt and it stimulates beside the music making part also the creating part
Been spending the whole day with going through all those great sounds and only skimmed the surface from those 4 packs. Loving it

Bought it. It had better be good... I listened to zero demos. And I'm leaving the country for two weeks, hopefully it will still be good when I get back and can actually use it!

No Chillbot, I'm going to sneak into your computer whilst you're away and make all the patches terrible.

Thanks to everyone for the love. Hugely appreciated!

Great sounds! I might have to pick this one up. Is there a discount if you already own the Zebra bundle?

Found it, thanks! Just bought it and played around with it a bit. Your sounds never disappoint. This came at the perfect time as I'll be scoring a sci-fi feature soon. I can already tell I'll be making good use of this.
