COSMOS
Pads inspired by the universe.

The story
I must begin by saying that this is my first sample pack. I never thought of making one, but this month’s Discord challenge motivated me to learn.
To make this package, I was inspired by the phenomena occurring in the universe. Therefore, after taking the resources provided by Afrorack and LABS, I tried to make the samples have a devouring, deep, cold and spacious touch. Likewise, I made an effort to give the interface a simple and modern style.
This pad pack for Decent Sampler has 4 signals:
– Pulsar
– Quasar
– Blazar
– Nebula
The 10 built-in controls allow you to vary the ADSR, reverb, delay, and lowpass filters.
I sincerely hope you like the result. I would also be very grateful if you could leave your opinion in the comments section.

4 layers with lots of depth
The result of these 4 cleverly named layers is BIG, like our Cosmos. I certainly didn't expect such a massive soundscape, but here it is. The combination of those layers along with the included depth effects in the sci-fi themed GUI are good enough to let you create some enormous ambiences with great potential.
Smart GUI!
A very nice and clean GUI! Very simple to read and the FX help extend the sound. My only problem is that the samples used seem to not blend well together due to slight differences in tuning. I think if they were more in-tune with each other, the FX would blend very nicely. Very good effort though!
Atmospheric
If you'll forgive the pun, what with there being no atmosphere out there, the sound is as planned - other-wordly.
Crack up the reverb to max, set the volumes to about 20% / 40% / 100% / 40%, put the filter frequency around 3k and wobble that resonance slider whilslt playing a low discordant chord and... wow... my ears nearly bleed with the sound. Great!
