Design Bios for HIVE2
P2P | 29 September 2022 | 17 MB
Bios is a very versatile library. The majority of the presets are initially very chilled & understated, making them suitable for underscoring, ambient or downtempo work. Start to use the mapped controls (modwheel, breath, expression & aftertouch) and they can become very nasty in nature! This makes them perfect for genres such as cyberpunk, darkwave & trailer…maybe a load more electronic genres!
Bios comes with 136 presets (with extra variations).
Melodic/bass/drums
•10 arps
•17 basses
•2 hats
•2 hat sequences
•10 keys
•1 kick
•11 leads
•20 pads
•1 percussion
•12 plucks
•16 pulses
•6 sequences
•3 snares
•2 sub basses
FX
•7 braams
•5 bass drops (each with 4 length variations)
•4 risers (each with 7 length variations)
•5 impacts
•1 strange
Bios also comes with 21 custom wavetables – these are required to be installed so that the presets function as expected.
The vast majority of the presets have the modwheel, breath & expression mapped. Quite a few also have aftertouch mapped. Using the controls gives a great amount of flexibility and variation in the presets.
I endeavoured to keep the maximum volume of each preset around -5dBFS true peak.
The presets were created in Hive 2 version 2.0.1 (revision 9709) so I cannot guarantee them working in an earlier version. You can get the most up to date version of Hive 2 from u-he’s website.
