Creative Multi-Layer Engine

The sounds of Aurora are threaded together with 3 discrete sonic signatures; a concert grand piano, a dual-layer texture engine, and an atmosphere layer - each deeply editable, offering unique emotional components that can be sculpted to create evocative new instruments.

An Exquisite Acoustic Grand

Aurora’s piano sound is based on a world-class concert grand recorded at the renowned Guillaume Tell sound stage in Paris. This meticulously sampled piano offers an extraordinarily natural playing experience, accurately relaying the most subtle and nuanced performances thanks to a combination of deep-sampling and advanced scripting.

Textures and Atmosphere

Aurora expands on the piano's distinct sound with a curated selection of textures and atmospheres. Explore dozens of unique augmentations and custom-made sonic reinforcements, arranged in categories including: Attack, Keys, Machines, Material, Nature, Orchestra, Electronic, Keyboard, and World.

Deep Sound Design

Each of Aurora's 3 discrete sound engines is outfitted with its own editor, offering powerful and intuitive controls over source, amplitude, pitch, dynamics, and tone, while a dual LFO modulation engine and integrated Motion designer allow you to easily and precisely add movement throughout your patch.

Semi-Modular FX

The sounds of Aurora are only the beginning thanks to an all-new semi-modular effects engine. 3 customizable effect slots can be outfitted with any combination of Drive, Tone, Grains, Flanger, Chorus, Phaser, Redux, and Convolver, with dedicated multimode Delay and Reverb, EQ, and Limiter effects to finalize your sound. Over 50 creative preset chains are included, arranged in categories including: Cloud, Echo, Experimental, Lo-Fi, Phase, and Room.

Powerful One-Knob Controls

Quickly make broad stroke changes to your sound with powerful one-knob controls on Aurora's main page, including: Color, Dynamics, Mute, and Intensity. Here you can also quickly explore Aurora's library of effect chains, adjust overall effect mix, and set the limiter threshold.

Akira Kosemura

Composer & pianist

"

Aurora is very inspired and beautiful plugin to be able to make the specific useful sounds intuitively. I have many plugins focusing the piano but this is one of my best recommendation to make the textures based on the piano.

If you are looking for an untraditional piano plugin, look no further. Aurora is well-know piano sound, twisted to sound like it's out of this world. Highly addictive and inspiring.
