Synthesist and sound designer Ian Dixon has been on a tear recently, releasing a series of excellent free sound libraries for Korg’s Wavestate and modWave synthesizers.

His latest free sound library is a Genesis Collection for the Korg Wavestate. Here’s what he has to say about it:

“Over the years, Tony Banks and Genesis have crafted iconic sounds featured in timeless tracks like Watcher of the Skies, Behind the Lines, Cinema Show, Invisible Touch, and Abacab. These legendary sounds came from iconic instruments such as the Mellotron, ARP Pro Soloist, ARP Quadra, Korg Wavestation, and Yamaha DX7.

Inspired by these classic Genesis sounds, this collection for the Korg Wavestate includes 36 meticulously crafted performances that span from Foxtrot to Calling All Stations. You’ll find Mellotron sounds, ARP Pro Soloist and Quadra, organs, DX7, and Wavestation patches to explore and relive that classic progressive rock vibe.”

The library is compatible with all versions of the Wavestate, including Korg Wavestate, Wavestate Native, Wavestate mkII, and Wavestate Rack.
