Includes sound design presets, 20 of them by Hazel Mills; Kontakt or Kontakt Player 7.6 or later, NKS.
How to use it in horror
Trigger bowed waterphone phrases with the water modulation raised for the classic wavering, eerie squeal under a slow reveal, or use a struck gesture as an acoustic stinger.
