Create impressive Sci-Fi vehicle sounds known from movies like Blade Runner, Tron with the new SpaceMotors Synthesizer plugin by LeSound!

Classic Synthesizer sounds are well known: arpeggios, bass, lead, pads… When sound designers works for movies, they often use hardware & software synths in a different way and use them for creating big effects per example. Beside the classic synths, there are also plugins on the market that are designed for specific sounds. One of these companies who developed unique products is Le Sound that has very different sound generators in their portfolio.

Their latest release is called SpaceMotors and is a sci-fi vehicle sound Synthesizer that allows you to create complex dynamic engine sounds. This sounds can be found in well-known Sci-Fi movies where you can see robots, space-ships etc. The sound engine is based on three oscillators to create complex harmonic sounds. This new release shows nicely what is possible with software solutions and less with hardware. In short: it’s an synth plugin for movie sound designers less for classic musicians!
