Key Features
The Black Octopus Sound G-T4R is a virtual instrument and VST plugin tailored for composers and sound designers who craft atmospheric scores and soundscapes. Created by Tom of the electronic duo V.O.E, this tool redefines the electric guitar sound into expansive cinematic textures. It leverages a sample-based engine to generate ethereal pads, intense drones, and emotive plucks. The inclusion of five bespoke convolution reverbs allows users to immerse their sounds in unique acoustic environments. Dual distortion settings offer the flexibility to shape sounds with subtle warmth or aggressive bite before or after reverb application.
Product Ref: 297739
The G-T4R introduces a new approach to sound design by transforming the familiar timbre of an electric guitar into an array of cinematic expressions. This plugin is perfect for crafting scenes that require atmospheric depth or tension. The core engine, built on a foundation of guitar-like synthesized sounds, extends its versatility beyond traditional boundaries, allowing for the creation of everything from dreamy sequences to suspenseful scores.
At the heart of G-T4R’s textural capabilities are its five original convolution reverbs. These are not just ordinary reverbs; each one is crafted from a mix of vocal tones, percussive elements, and synthetic textures, offering a unique blend of space and dimension to any track. Whether you're looking to add a subtle echo or transform a sound into a sprawling sonic landscape, these reverbs open up limitless possibilities.
The plugin’s innovative 'Pre Distortion' and 'Post Distortion' features provide sound designers with the tools to experiment with the intensity of their audio. This functionality allows for intricate control over the texture, from smooth saturation to full-bodied aggression, significantly altering the character of the sound based on its placement relative to the reverb.
The G-T4R’s bass and guitar cabinet modelling adds depth and warmth to your tracks. By emulating the resonant qualities of real-world speaker cabinets, it enriches the lower end, perfect for creating powerful, underlying sonic structures that propel cinematic pieces forward. This feature not only deepens the bass but subtly alters the harmonic content, enriching the overall texture.
"This is NOT a guitar plugin. I mean… it is… its meant to have that backbone… but what this is, is a DREAMGAZED-OUT-PAD-DRONE-AMBIENT-MONSTER OF A PLUGIN." - Slade Templeton
