About this one

PS-PAD is a lush, evolving drone pad. A few chords — drawn from the KEY — are each held for several bars and voiced as a fat detuned-supersaw stack, washed through a slowly-moving resonant filter, a shimmer octave and a gentle chorus. Long overlapping swells crossfade one chord into the next, so it never quite sits still. Shape the motion, shimmer, detune and swell; the dice drifts it somewhere new.
