12 Gods: Hephaestus

12 Gods: Hephaestus is part of our 12 Gods series for Spectrasonics Omnisphere 2 synth. It contains 50 patches focused on creative percussive sounds with rich cinematic character and saturated tones to enhance the rhythm of your productions.

The percussions of this soundbank vary from deep tones with heavy tension to brighter metallic drums that fill the higher frequencies.

Each patch is dedicated to a different myth or creation of the God of fire, craftsmen and blacksmiths. Hephaestus was the son of Zeus and Hera. He made the weapons of the Gods and some very notable crafts and armor of Greek mythology like Achilles armor, walking tripods and Hermes' winged helmet.

Most of patches shine on the lower register of the keyboard. You could make them drier by disabling the reverbs or delays effects from the FX pages of Omnisphere.
