Whether you're crafting cinematic synths or ethereal atmospheric textures, Orbit empowers your creativity with its intuitive interface and cutting-edge sound-shaping capabilities.

Critic Reviews

Review: Orbit and Eclipse by Wide Blue Sound

generastudios.com

Wide Blue Sound's Orbit and Eclipse impress with their powerful modulation capabilities and intuitive GUI, ideal for crafting cinematic soundscapes. While the sound quality is impeccable, they struggle with high pricing and limited raw sound diversity. With a steep cost of $298, these libraries cater to niche users seeking unique atmospheric textures. Despite the price, their innovative Skypad app offers enhanced control, making them a compelling choice for dedicated sound designers. Overall, Orbit and Eclipse are a worthy investment for those willing to pay for a premium sound design experience.

Wide Blue Sound Orbit offers an outstanding toolkit for crafting soundscapes and rhythm beds, thanks to its intuitive interface and high-quality sound library. Its core "Orbit engine" allows seamless crossfading between four sample players, each equipped with comprehensive control features. The rhythmic potential is further enhanced by its versatile LFO and modulation sequencers. Master effects, including distortion and reverb, add depth, making it a highly versatile instrument. While the review highlights an absence of significant cons, this could imply a lack of critique rather than perfection. Nonetheless, Orbit's rich textures and usability make it a worthwhile investment for composers seeking atmospheric sound design.
