- U-he recently released a major new sound pack for HIVE 2.1 titled Metaphorium. The sounds were originally commissioned by Johnny Klimek for some upcoming "secret" film work - which turned out to be The Matrix Resurrections and featured sounds from Hive.
We take a look at the bank - available now at 39Euros:

It was fun to hear the images the patches painted in your mind described :)
I love Howard Scarr’s sound design. Even on the Access Virus it stood out. His patches for Zebra are great. Including the Dark Zebra which is a similar film/sound design mash up.
thanks so much for doing this Nick, it is always supported!!
Absolutely fantastic sounds. I’m a massive fan of U-He’s stuff. Use it on everything and this soundset is right up my street. Lovely demo Nick 👍
Nice play out very cinematic. Thanks, Nick great as always. I have been watching you since the Dave Smith MoPho demo. Always a pleasure.
You could most certainly create a complete movie soundtrack with these sounds. Very intense indeed..Love it !!!
The patches are better than the movie.
Everyone credits Diva as the best uhe synth. But we all know hive2 is the hero behind the shadows
Very nice demo, thank you:)
U-He Hive never sounded like this, not really a techno-trance synth anymore, they made it become way much more. Compliments!
it's never just been a techno trance synth. There's no such thing. with any normal synth you can create sounds for any music genre.
Very cool! Thanks!
Thank you for some inspiration!!!
Great "cinematic" evocative patches. We have great choices of tools these days. A topic I'd like to see discussed and explored is auxiliary controllers to be used with a keyboard primarily. I'm talking about compact CC fader boxes and similar. I'll probably have to build my dream controller which is 4 mod type wheels and a pitch wheel, all assignable from the unit with presets. Cheers!
Great sounds! Can anyone tell me the names of this keyboard and MIDI controllers? Do they transmit aftertouch? Thx
Keyboard is Arturia keystep pro, monophonic aftertouch
The Infinity Vox patch reminds me of some of Michael McNabb's computer synthesis works, e.g. on the Dreamsong CD (well worth a listen).
Probably the only good thing about Matrix Revolutions then :) As a Hive owner I'll be checking these out. U-He's support for Linux is a winner for me.
the first 45m of that movie was very compelling imo
I think Howard did a soundbank for the quantum, i don't remember any of the quantum sounds that shipped with the unit when it was released, which is when i got one, being remotely interesting or in any way showed off what the synth was truly capable of.
Maybe because Waldorf decided to put my sounds in the middle of the list, starting at preset #700. Simply select an "Author".
Hey, Nick - that couldn't possibly be you on Top of the Pops on iplayer right now (30.1.92 episode) miming a funky piano solo on a Korg M1? Glory days!
Might be, though I may have been miming the drums...
Found it. :)
7:38-7:50 sounds like the intro heart of glass by blondie , 10:10 sounds like marimbas in No self control by Peter Gabriel
No cowbell?
I can definitely tell you that I enjoy these sounds a lot more than the train wreck that Matrix Resurrections was. 😂
We get it. Some people didn't like the movie.
Your so right
@@bonchbonch thing is. The movie was that terrible. Insulting actually.
@@luisbarrera5740 "Insulting?" lmao. Stop.
Beautiful patches. Amazing sound design. It’s crazy how good software synths are now. Better than a lot of hardware synths. When is U-He going to have a sale? I would like to grab Hive.
Dune 3 and Pigments are also very good though.
HIVE is so cheap that I’d call it a perpetual sale. I’d rather have all u-He products for full price than being inundated by Waves offering their stuff for $29 in an email every fucking day, only to require paid “upgrades” regularly, which are really a back door subscription.
Honest and straightforward companies (like U-He) should be rewarded by aware customers.
@@drjkyll539 Pigments was on sale, and that is an amazing synth. I’m betting a lot of people bought it. Now they are plugged into the Arturia ecosystem. Even Dune 3 was on sale last fall. Seems like good business practice to me. I would buy Hive if it were on sale, and then likely I would consider buying preset packs.
From time to time u-he offers 25% discount, so just be patient a bit
@@aquaticborealis4877 u-he have been making software synths for nearly 20 years, growing from a single man operation to a team of 16 or so people. They have developed multiple critically acclaimed products, I think it’s fair to say they what know what they are doing both technically and commercially.
Arturia can offset discounts on their software against their hardware sales and Synapse Audio do have sales but they charge more for their upgrades. Dune 2 to 3 is $79, the upgrade from Hive 1 to 2 was only 20e.
It’s never a simple case of company X is doing Y, so why can’t company Z do the same.
I own dune 3 and like hive much more than dune. Everyone says dune sounds great but I actually like the hive sound more
17:43 Bullroarer?
Matrix Resurrections was trash, but Sonic State is not. Love Nick's ambient jams.
All I want to know is are they ever coming out with Zebra 3?
“But where is the Piano?”
6:04 holy shit
am not easily impressed on my age..but this is awesome!
because.....layers : )
Hive does not have layers though...
@@UrsHeckmannBerlin no???...I hear layers
@@BRIGGS2710 Each very powerful Wavetable Oscillator has its own sub-oscillator, filter and set of envelopes, LFOs etc. So as long as you keep them separate and layer them you can talk about two layers if you like and you can use them accordingly, like some of the sounds in the video do. But the fun thing - and why Urs is right, of course - is that all the elements are patchable to each other. That does not happen in a layer structure of a workstation-style synth.
Hive is an incredible easy and at the same time super deep synth. There's still much to explore and I always enjoy tweaking it.
@@drjkyll539 It's awesome!!!
Thanks Reinhold! - And yes, in my opinion layers are somewhat wasteful and inefficient because they can not interact. Therefore we never designed a synthesizer to have actual layers.
even if I had any doubt before its all gone now
I'm pretty much sure that we will play our synthesizers
in the face of the Armageddon itself
even if the ground cracks open and dinosaurs start to creep out
or I don't know the U.S navy and pentagon
release ten more new UFO videos
we are going to continue to play our synthesizers
and yes sir we are armed to the teeth with the appropriate sounds for it all
so bring it on, we are ready!
Too much Shimming
Shimming? Whats that? :-)
@@sonicstate obviously Stimmings film composer alias 🧐
@@rundtomrasmus lol
@@sonicstate Shimming, done with a Shimmer device or plugin is a very long (ambient alike) reverb
That's shimmering. It can be turned off. The sounds themselves are still very good
