74 uplifting Trance presets, compatible with the Clavia Nord Lead 2, 2X, and racks. This soundbank is 100% Trance-oriented, which means no weird brass, pianos, or FX. This soundset is designed to fully exploit the Nord Lead 2X's virtual analog engine, leveraging its raw FM synthesis and signature filter design to deliver the punchy, cutting sounds that defined the golden era of 2000s Trance.

Patches in Couloir are based on sounds from songs by the likes of Gaia, Ace Da Brain, Alphazone, Paul Van Dyk, DuMonde, Airbase, Gouryella, Arctic Moon, The Thrillseekers, Rank 1, Vengeance, Sean Tyas, Robert Nickson, ATB, Binary Finary, Kai Tracid, Darude, Marcel Woods, Talla 2XLC, and many many more!

And to cap off the bank some patches were set to INIT, so you have room to write and store your own patches without overwriting any existing sounds!

Only 3rd party FX used on these sounds was Virus TI2 reverb and delay.

Sounds in this preset pack are suitable for the Uplifting Trance, Hard Trance, Tech Trance, Progressive Trance, and Classic Trance genres, and are organized by category into Leads, Plucks, Pads, Acid sounds, and Basses, for quick reference

Studio Tip: Stack presets in multitimbral mode to achieve even bigger sounds
