AIR Music Technology The Riser

The Riser by AIR Music Technology is an all-new instrument for designing musical transitions of epic proportions. This powerful, synth-based instrument comes with all the tools you need to compose heart-stopping transitions in one intuitive user-interface. In seconds, you can construct rises, falls, swells, fades, and more, based on AIR’s coveted sound synthesis technology. It comes with 300 pro-grade presets that you can edit, deconstruct, copy, mangle, and implement into your tracks.

Featuring the most powerful and musical virtual synthesis available, The Riser can be used to create classic transitions or effects never-before-heard by human ears. The core of The Riser’s mojo are three continuously variable oscillators – sweep, noise, and chord. Each oscillator features a dedicated Filter send and graphical parameter depiction. The Riser’s Chord oscillator introduces you to an uncharted creative continent. You can match The Riser’s sonic structure to your song’s key (or a contrasting one) and blend it to taste; it can be as musical as you want.
