Sound Collective: Capsule

Capsule’s Neon Sound Library Is the Latest Instalment from the Sound Collective Giveaway

Sound Collective has now ended. But don’t worry, we still give you all the great software to keep you making high-quality tracks. Register your hardware to access it all today.

The latest instalment of the exclusive Sound Collective community giveaway is Capsule’s Neon sound library. Normally sold for $9.99 per month with access to all sounds, or $19.99 outright per sound pack, Neon is free to download for Sound Collective members from 14th April to 22nd June (4pm GMT).

What is Capsule?

Capsule is an intuitive and innovative synthesis engine that concentrates its intricate sound design into eight easy-to-use macro controls, with the instruments playable via the Capsule plugin.

Under the hood, Capsule includes multiple types of oscillators, such as virtual analog, and a powerful sample playback engine.

Capsule’s sound libraries are collections of sounds including up to 64 instruments that have been meticulously crafted by sound designers. Each Capsule embodies a specific theme, enhancing the sonic palette of your tracks.

New Capsules are regularly added to the catalog and can be downloaded directly from the plugin interface or via the dedicated Capsule Portal desktop application.

Step back into the 80s

Recreate the retro sound of the 80s with Capsule’s Neon. Taking inspiration from the timeless sound of vintage synths, Neon dials into the iconic realms of synth-wave, new wave, industrial electronica, and avant-garde pop.

Build brassy chords, undulating basslines, and liquid-like pads; then stack your synth-driven sounds with chorus, flange, and delay to flood your music with beams of fluorescent light. Get ready to illuminate your tracks with 64 presets, custom-built to be expressive, playable, and easy to use.

“This month we’ve teamed up with Capsule to bring you a flavour of the 80s.” says Sound Collective Product Manager Jonathan Campbell.

“It’s a playable instrument in your DAW, taking massive inspiration from synth sounds from the 80s. It’s as easy as selecting a pre-set/instruments and using the macros to sculpt the sound. The macro knobs change per instrument, meaning you affect various parameters such as depth and modulation. It’s a lot of fun to use, steeped in nostalgia — and perfect for instantly getting that retro 80s sound on your tracks.”

Sound Collective members can download Capsule's Neon sound library for free from their Novation account from 14th April to 22nd June (4pm GMT). Access the 30-day free trial to have all the capsules at your disposal.
