Phoenix
Smooth synth strings and choirs
Bring new lush atmospheric dimensions to your productions with Phoenix, an instrument based on a set of smooth synthetic strings and choir samples. It's perfect for creating wide strings backdrops and ethereal choirs instantly. Phoenix runs inside Floe which allows you to process the sounds in three separate audio layers, with envelopes, LFOs, filters, and a complete rack of effects.
The result is a sound design tool perfect for creating cinematic pads, keys and basses, and for easy underscoring. Examples of such sounds are included in the 80 production-ready presets that come with the product. These are organized into five categories: basses, keys, leads, pads and sound effects.
Smooth synth strings and choirs
The core sounds of this library are six synthetic strings and choirs instruments. These sounds are useful even before processing. Ethereal choirs and lush string pads can be made instantly. However, the three-layer structure of the engine allows you to take these sounds even further. Complementary sounds can be layered together and modulated with LFOs and filters, and reverbs can be applied. Using these features, it is easy to create rich textures and soundscapes with movement. But this is by no means the extent of Phoenix's capabilities.
80 Presets
Keys and bass sounds can also be produced. In the included presets you will find many examples of these types of sounds such as low rumbles, plucky staccatos and clean subs. Phoenix also works excellently when layered with real instruments. The smoothness of the sounds of this product jell superbly with them, enhancing their richness and width.

Crossgrade from Phoenix: Kontakt
If you purchased/redeemed Phoenix: Kontakt before 11/28/2024, you can get 50% off this product. See our Crossgrades page for how to do this.
The Floe version of Phoenix maintains the original Kontakt samples, with improved tuning on one instrument and optimized sample lengths. Both engines offer similar capabilities, but the Floe version may provide a faster sound design workflow and an easier-to-use interface that matches other FrozenPlain products. Floe will see continued development and improvements. Additionally, the new version includes 80 new presets.
