Ian Boddy WaveForms RadioPhonica

Radiophonica
Radiophonica is the first title in Ian Boddy's Waveforms series of sample libraries. All the sounds were produced and recorded directly from analogue hardware synthesisers.
No digital processing other than a touch of EQ or compression where appropriate
was used. Any effects you hear such as flanging, phasing, reverb or echo are from
the various analogue components of the modular systems used. The intention was to
provide a library of sounds that are synonymous with the name of the Radiophonic
Workshop from their early work on such seminal programs as Doctor Who. As such
the sounds are intended to have that analogue, organic, retro sci-fi character that
many find so appealing about those early synthesiser soundtracks.
The Kontakt 2 programs are a simple C0 - C6 keyspan with C3 as the root key and
a basic envelope and low-pass filter provided. The modulation wheel is set to turn
the cut-off of the filter down as it is raised. No other programming is included as the
sounds themselves are "finished" and it is intended to give the customer the flexibility
of adding their own effects and modulations if desired.
