Hybrid cinematic textures

Discover the alchemy between organic and synthetic tones with a collection of blendable string sections, female and male choirs, woodwind, tuned percussion, pads, low brass, French horn ensembles, and even waterphone. Each sampled instrument was performed by virtuosic musicians, offering a stunning array of articulations and effect options.

Expressive performance

Fables is powered by polyphonic aftertouch, allowing each note to become its own canvas for expression. Infuse your music with subtle nuances and breathtaking dynamics by effortlessly controlling MIDI with your touch. Subtly affect the volume, panning, filters, pitch, and modulation of each voice independently, adding a whole new dimension of depth and emotion to your compositions and performances.

Behind the scenes

Recorded at the iconic Studios 301 in Sydney, the sounds of Fables are enriched with unique acoustics and top-of-the-line equipment. Finding beauty in imperfection, every swell, tremolo, and stray harmonic is meticulously captured to embrace human character. Blend between two microphone positions for true control.
