“If you're looking for a versatile toolkit to take Cakewalk Instruments to the next level, look no further than Architecture Waveforms CE. For preset tweaking, it's as easy as swapping one of the 2500+ waveforms for an existing multisample or oscillator. I've used them in Dimension Pro, Rapture, z3ta+, and other .wav-based synths to quickly create an array of programs from scratch. The sheer number and variety of choices here is inspirational. Everything from delicate sound variations, through vocal-like treatments, raw nasty aggression, and beyond. These waveforms serve multiple functions: load them as user-defined LFOs, extract them directly as custom step generators, or blend them across Elements for intricately textured stacks of sound. For this price, you simply can't ignore the huge assortment of colors added to your synthesizer palette.”

“Loading Architecture Waveforms into Rapture (and the other Cakewalk synths) is extremely easy. Browsing contents of the subfolders can be accomplished with a simple mouse click without going through the open dialog. This is a real time saver. It is also great to both see a visual representation of the waveform and see the informative text name. Use is completely painless. Its the best integration of the Architecture waveforms yet!”

“If you are looking for more creative content and sound design options for Absynth then look no further then Architecture Waveforms! They will open up a ton of possibilities for Sound design and Creativity in Absynth. Just replacing the wave forms of basic patches with the Architecture ones will give you great results and for the price you really can't lose! There is enough content here in every category to satisfy the most hardcore tweaker. A must for anyone who owns Absynth! Go for it”

“It is a no-brainer. I made history the day I posted here ! Personally that is really saying a lot. It's definitely worth your while. To be honest I think the developer could have charged me ten times the price and I would think just as highly of the library.”

“In any case, you are to be congratulated for producing a truly amazing set of ultra-precise waveforms. This lib is really the basis of almost any conceivable type of wavetable synthesis. I really appreciate the category notes, too. I think every Absynth user should get this lib, as it really provides the full spectrum of wave types, in a totally systematic and well-organized fashion. It's wonderfully useful.”

“These waveforms are excellent starting points for sonic explorations with Absynth. At the price, this collection is a steal, and I thoroughly recommend it for anyone into sound design with Absynth.”

“Hiya! I'm only starting to dig deeper into these things, and this has become a great way to explore the depths of Absynth and see what parameter affects another, etc. For the price, it's almost silly to not buy Architecture Waveforms. I really should hook up some studio monitors and frighten the neighbors.”

“After messing around with this set for a while -- very easy install in Absynth 4, good installation instructions, too, and easy to use -- I declare this $ very well spent. Absynth is scarcely short of surprising sounds and effects, but the beauty of the Galbanum set is that you can take some of the more conventional keys or pads and substitute some fresh (more warped) waveform and give yourself quite unpredictable surprises. Definitely a source for unique sound production: I mean, pair 1000+ sounds with another 1000 or so from Biomechanoid, then add these waveforms, and you have ... a very lot of choices.”
