Amazing stuff Sam! I purchased a few of your libraries over the weekend and am having tonnes of fun exploring through them with Mirage. What would you say are your biggest influences when it comes to the sounds you create? Are there any particular soundtracks that come to mind? I personally get a lot of Silent Hill vibes from some of these sounds. Cheers!
Thanks! Erick was the mastermind behind this particular library so I can't say for sure the influences are for this. I agree there is a Silent Hill style though. In general, its film/TV soundtracks and ambient drone music that inspires the libraries. Interstellar, Hinterland by John Hardy, Cryo Chamber - just a few off the top of my head.
Thanks for the comment! It's very interesting to hear what others say about the sounds. I really appreciate the insight. My general approach is usually to find a unique or experimental approach to creating sounds. So perhaps it's coincidental that it ended up sounding like it was directly influenced by something (and perhaps it was subconscious? lol). In the case of Deep Conjuring, I put organic (flutes, harps, guitar, etc) and digital sounds through convolution reverb and manually manipulated certain parameters - recording the live results as I'm manipulating it. The general result was a strange, modulated, chorus-like doubling of the sound, which generally seemed to add more emotion, and sometimes "spookiness" to the sound. I first tried this experiment all the way back in 2016 and then recently updated it with a Kontakt version - Deep Conjuring II: Specters, and then the version for Mirage. Was a pleasure to work on, and I think both versions brought out a different aspect of the source material.
I'm trying to install your free Music Box suite but every time I try and install the Mirage Installer(v1.06) I get an error message:''You do not have any mirage products in your account''. How do I fix this please?

+1 on Silent Hill vibes. Imma add a little bit of Parasite Eve pads too.

Amazing, i love it
Sorry, am unwell-so this may seem obvious: but can one load one's own samples into Mirage for transformations in Deep Conjuring? Thank you
Thanks for the comment. It's not possible at the moment, but it's something I'd like to add to this engine over the coming years.
@@FrozenPlain Thank you for getting back to me and congratulations on very fine work as-is
