Exploring Sandstorm: A Journey into Layered Soundscapes

Dive into the World of Multi-Layered Sound Design with Sampleson’s Innovative Plugin

As a music producer and sound designer, I’m always on the lookout for new plugins that can push the boundaries of sound creation. Recently, I’ve been captivated by a plugin called Sandstorm from Sampleson, and I can’t wait to share my experience with you.


Introducing Sandstorm

Sandstorm is not an average plugin. It’s a powerful tool that allows you to create intricate textures using an impressive 17 layers of instruments. The possibilities for sound design are truly mind-blowing, opening up a whole new world of ambient and textured soundscapes.

My Plugin Testing Ritual

One of my favorite parts of music production is the moment I download a new plugin. There’s an excitement in exploring its capabilities and pushing it to its limits. With Sandstorm, this process was particularly enjoyable.

My go-to method for testing new plugins is to dive right in, play some random chords and/or notes, and create ambient soundscapes. This approach allows me to really get a feel for the plugin’s range, texture, and overall sound quality. It’s like taking a new instrument for a test drive, seeing how it handles and what unique sounds it can produce.

Creating with Sandstorm

Working with Sandstorm was great. The ability to blend 17 layers of instruments opened up countless possibilities. I found myself lost in the process, experimenting with different combinations and tweaking parameters to create rich, evolving textures.

The ambient piece I created during this test run became more than just a trial – it evolved into a full-fledged track that I’m excited to share with you all. It’s a testament to how inspiring the right tool can be in the creative process.
