Zebra 3 – Analogue Beauty

U-He Zebra 2: Dark Rhythmical Presets + Patterns. Sound Demo

video upload by Anton Anru

📡 'Quantum Pulses' is a bank of 50 presets + patterns for the U-he Zebra 2 virtual synthesizer. The collection contains dark, deep, atmospheric, sci-fi, harsh and aggressive sounds that have a wide range of uses: from cinematic sound design to modular techno sequences.
🔭 The soundset is inspired by the modern techno scene, vintage sci-fi films and experimental robots. Perfect for Techno, Industrial, Dub, IDM, Experimental, Cinematic sound design, and others.

📦 Get these presets: https://antonanru.sellfy.store/p/zebr...
👤 The author of the soundset is skendi (Arseniy Pushkov).

⚗️ The sequences work in arpeggio mode, which allows for more interesting playing of several notes in a pattern.
🎚️ Each patch is performance-ready, with velocity sensitivity and ModWheel assignments mapped for expressive control. ModWheel affects the ADSR's performance, making sounds both clearer and more blurred.

🎛️ Each patch includes 8 Macros. These controls are designed stylistically and affect the waveform, giving it movement and changing its shape, adding various FM textures and bitcrush, and also affecting the filter by opening and closing it.
The X/Y controls can be manipulated with a mouse or used as 1–8 macro knobs for hands-on control via a standard MIDI controller, making the soundset highly expressive and performance-friendly.

Zebra 3 Modulation Graph WIP

video upload by Urs Heckmann

"Here's a visualisation of Zebra 3 modulation graph. (This is not gonna be in the final UI, certainly not like it is now...)

So there are 24 modules (4 LFOs, 4 envs, 4 MSEGs...) which have parameters that themselves are subject to modulations. These modulations can be directly assigned modulators, e.g. triggers in the envelope, or assignments via the Mod Matrix.

Now the problem: Whatever gets modulated by something else needs to be processed after. So first the source, then the target. Cool. But sometimes modules can modulate each other, or create circular structures. Circular routings create latency, and that needs to be minimised.

In order to solve that issue we implemented and modified classic dependency graphs so that circular sections have a minimum of circularity. What you see in this video is a visualisation of such a minimised circular structure with as minimal latency as possible."

U-He Hive: 25 Free Presets + Patterns. Dark Atmospheric Demo

video upload by Anton Anru

🏙 Lost Traffic is a collection of 25 tempo-synced presets+sequences for U-He Hive 2, designed for dark, urban and cinematic electronic music.
The soundset is inspired by neon megacities, late-night drives, underground clubs, dystopian skylines and graphic-novel noir — somewhere between cyberpunk futures and crime-ridden streets, without going fully into grit and dirt.

📦 Get these patches: https://antonanru.sellfy.store/p/hive...
🛎 The pack is free, but any donation is appreciated.
👤 The author of the soundset is Daytona Carter.

🧿 Each sequence has a distinct personality: some feel like restless traffic lanes, some like narrow alleys pulsing with tension, others like cold, mechanical grids of light.
The overall tone is dark, urban, synthetic and dystopian, with only a few rare moments of calm and space.

🎛 All presets are velocity-sensitive and performance-ready.
The ModWheel is essential: it doesn’t just make small tweaks — it opens up each sequence:
🔹 adding extra notes and counter-rhythms.
🔹 introducing delays, distortion and tonal shifts.
🔹 morphing between more minimal patterns and denser, more aggressive versions.
