about B+B patches
all B+B presets are originally designed and programmed by Niels Dettenbach (dettenbach audio) from init in over 6 monthes of intensive, professional sound design work. this patch collection mainly targets studio and live artists of modern music genres - with a taste of neuro and psychoacoustical engineering - the "butter". to round up, as further "bread" a base set of sounds as drum / perc kits and a few adopted classic electro sounds with the significant "spice" and the fresh punch / dynamics of PEAKs new arch - for easy tuning and custom tweaking - is included.
B+B strongly focus onto the dimensions of fresh and new sounds the groundbreaking new FPGA-driven architecture and the revolutionary (high speed) "Oxford Oscillators" of the PEAK to open them to modern artists playing (and producers working) on modern - or even new - music styles. the primary target was to provide modern analog sounds that are sounding really new, fresh and crisp while still beeing musical / playable and as such usable as your fresh "bread and butter" in your studio and live - from pushing pop, hiphop over edm, electro to harder electro and neuro - up to experimental.
while these sounds are all usable out of the box within modern musical projects - they offer starting points into dimensions of new sound fields easy to explore - to the professional studio producer as creative live musicians - who are looking for a really fresh sound flavour and not just another adaption of often heared synth sounds on "just a new synth" platform.
