Radiophonica is the first title in Ian Boddy's Waveforms series of sample
libraries. All the sounds were produced and recorded directly from analogue
hardware synthesisers. No digital processing other than a touch of EQ or
compression where appropriate was used. Any effects you hear such as flanging,
phasing, reverb or echo are from the various analogue components of the
modular systems used. The intention was to provide a library of sounds that
are synonymous with the name of the Radiophonic Workshop from their early work
on such seminal programs as Doctor Who. As such the sounds are intended to have
that analogue, organic, retro sci-fi character that many find so appealing
about those early synthesiser soundtracks. The Kontakt 2 programs are a simple
C0 - C6 keyspan with C3 as the root key and a basic envelope and low-pass filter
provided. The modulation wheel is set to turn the cut-off of the filter down as
it is raised. No other programming is included as the sounds themselves are
"finished" and it is intended to give the customer the flexibility of adding
their own effects and modulations if desired.
