Holy Ambiences is an ambient synth pad, evolving soundscape and sound-designed ambient sample library for composers and sound artists, and it captures a wintery, icy mood with shimmering and sparkling textures, lush mystical backgrounds, warm musical patches, and a mysterious vibe. Its origin explains and complicates it: we originally created it as the perfect little companion library for winter and holiday-themed music and sound design production, but it has grown over the years into an all-around cosmic synth and instrumental ambient patch collection that comes in handy in all kinds of musical genres — a useful thing to say plainly, since a buyer encountering the name might assume it is seasonal when it is not.

Its version 3.0 contents are documented: the upgrade adds over a hundred new sounds, bringing it to nearly 1 GB of content, comprising 18 sound categories filled with long one-shot sounds and infinitely looping sustains, a fully-customizable user interface, a modular FX rack, and 20 creative factory presets. Its interface suite is documented in detail: control over swell, attack, release, offset, vibrato, filter, pitch (coarse and fine), articulation switching, cross-fading and layering, with an adaptable LFO system with selectable LFO shape, modulation target parameter, speed, intensity, tempo-syncing, and fade-in time — the LFO's modulation-target parameter being the significant control for ambient work, since it lets a producer animate any chosen parameter rather than only the usual suspects.

Requirements are documented and matter here: this library is designed for the full retail version of Native Instruments Kontakt 5.5 or later, and critically this is a standard Kontakt open-format library, so the free Kontakt Player does not fully support it and can only run it in a limited "demo mode" — however, the sample directories are unlocked so you can use them in other WAV-compatible software, sampler and synth formats. That last point is unusual and worth carrying: several Soundiron open-format libraries state that their sample directories are unlocked, which means the raw WAV content remains usable even without full Kontakt. It has also been distributed in excerpted form — Splice lists a Holy Ambiences pack of 125 samples under the Soundiron label. It suits film, television, and game scoring, ambient production, and sound design, and the near-1 GB size keeps it light enough to load alongside a larger orchestral template.
