Checking Out: Detonator:Rage by PulseSetter Sounds

Dual Layer Engine, which allows for 2 Sets of Samples with Crossfade capability

PulseSetter-Sounds has been on a roll. First with the fantastic and creative instrument release of Epic Babies (see review here) and then a wonderful FREEbie (MetalStorm) which made SLRs Top Free Instruments list.

Now the developer is back with a new Kontakt library with a solid focus for trailer composers.

Detonator:Rage promises to be the first release of PulseSetter-Sounds “RAGE” line of sample libraries for trailer composers. This Kontakt library is crafted with a singular concentration on aggressive sound design for trailer music.

Detonator:RAGE is delivered as 280 Kontakt presets as well as WAV files for all samples

The library comes with a pretty massive helping of tonal one-shots, impacts and playable melodic instruments carefully organized and delivered as Kontakt presets and WAV files.

Recorded Instruments

Location Recording Session

For the sample set, the PulseSetter team took to the best of modern analog, wavetable, fm synths and guitar sources. From the trailer for the instrument (below) they also look to have spent a good amount smashing things in junk yards and also list samples of live brass section recordings as well as Animal Sounds, Tire Screeches and Submarine Pings. I would be really interested to see some footage of the team capturing submarine pings 😉

Detonator Performance Tonal Hits NKI

From there the PulseSetter team took to applying a sci-fi, action sound design treatment to the samples with techniques including digital manipulation and guitar pedal signal chains.

In this first look, I share a listen and look at what the self-titled “futuristic dystopian-cyberpunk” developer has to offer with Detonator:Rage.
