What it is
Sound Dust Vol. 2 is the second generation of Spitfire Audio's Sound Dust series, designed by British composer Pendle Poucher and published through Spitfire Audio. Where Vol. 1 introduced Poucher's distinctive approach to sampling, Vol. 2 refines and expands the concept with new instruments and a more polished interface, while retaining the same organic, offbeat character. The library draws from a range of unusual and acoustic sources, including pianos, tape-based keyboards, and synths.
Key features
- 5 onboard instruments spanning pianos, tape-based keyboards, synths, and related tonal sources
- Onboard parameter controls for shaping each instrument's character and response
- Built-in effects for further processing and tail manipulation
- Runs in Kontakt full version (5.6.8 or later), available as standalone or in AAX, AU, and VST formats
Who it's for
Composers and producers who want textural, character-driven sounds that go beyond clean orchestral samples. Particularly useful for film, TV, and game scoring where unconventional atmospheres, ambient pads, and experimental melodic elements are needed.
