Behringer Edge+Crave - EC Combo (50 Patches + 50 Crave Patterns + Wav Samples) , download!

Description

Welcome to the soundset for the semi-modular synthesizers Behringer EDGE + CRAVE.
It is a collection of 50 combo patches (+50 CRAVE patterns) that include basses, drums/percussion, leads, plucks, textures, FXs.

There is a wide range of sound colors inside the pack: massive and gentle, aggressive and soft, bright and dull, melodic and inharmonic tones, straight and polymetric patterns.

The main point of the soundset is the high level of interconnection, not just syncing the two synths with independent timbres (individual patches for EDGE and CRAVE are also available on my website).

In this patchbook, the timbres of the synths are soldered and can’t exist separately:

they modulate each other with LFO and Envelopes
a sequence from one synth change parameters on the other one
gates and triggers interaction breaks predictable patterns
audio signals from OSCs may be used as modulation sources to create harmonies/intervals or crazy experimental inharmonic tones
or they may be used just as audio sources that go to the other synth to be processed with its (different) filter and envelope and get the «second life».

At the same time, they play different and distinct roles; it’s not a sonic mess, but two synths working in close cooperation.

Each page contains notes explaining how the patch works, which parameters are worth tweaking during playback, and how to develop the timbre during a performance. By making these settings consciously and trying the things mentioned in the notes, you will learn a lot about the synths and discover their true depth.

To recreate these patches, you will need up to 12 patch cords.

There are audio examples of all patches inside the folder with the soundset. Each patch has audio examples presented in three variants: EDGE only, CRAVE only, and both together.

Additionally, there’s a separate folder containing WAV samples with the same timbres, along with Scale and BPM information. These samples can be used inside a sampler or DAW to achieve the exact sound heard in the examples. Feel free to slice them for one-shots or loops; they serve as excellent material for further editing and processing.

I added delays/reverbs and pads to the demos to create a musical context.

They are not included in the soundset.
