Trinz — Colours PST

This toolkit of 48 presets and a wide range of controls and effects allows you to write from scratch and finish a track using the plug-in alone — taking you from lo-fi, characterful sounds to high-octane atmosphere — all depending on how you use it. Whether it’s your first entry into drill music, you’re an established producer or you’re a media composer looking to expand your sound palette, this plug-in is designed to inspire. For composers, its versatility lends itself to building tension beds or adding momentum, atmosphere and emotion. The multi-instrumental melodic loops capture the character and soul of each performance to spark ideas or set the mood, with enough controls at your fingertips to make them your own. Notated by Trinz, the full performance of the loop is presented on the lowest octave, and each of the stems have been individually split and colour-mapped by octave across the rest of the keyboard, so you can layer them up as you like and sequence a beat. Each loop has been recorded at a default of 140bpm, but can be tempo-synced to your DAW with no compromise on sound quality.

The Keys section offers 20 sounds, each note sampled and laid out across the whole keyboard — ranging from warm, deep floor-shaking subs and classic analog synth and electric piano sounds (from the Korg MS20, Juno 106, Rhodes and more) to the bell-like kalimba and percussive textures — offering a different perspective of sounds, textures and effects compared to the hard-hitting sounds of drill. The Drums section includes a range of innovative, intricate drum loops written by Trinz, as well as whole drum kits, which can be manipulated and tweaked to your liking. The processed signal slider is what really shows the full range of each of these sounds and performances, starting with the dry sound and fading in various pre-programmed effects unique to each individual preset — each specially curated by Trinz and QMF engineer, Love Shodipe.
