A Paradise of Shoegaze Soundscapes
Channel the sounds of the art rock world with Gaze from Spitfire Audio. Written and created by Pacific Northwest-based art rock artist Skyscape Paradise, this library is popular with Sweetwater musicians looking to capture the iconic sounds of the shoegaze movement. Gaze spans 13 guitar presets, bass, drums, and re-amped synthesizers, all recorded through an array of ribbon microphones and the vintage Neve 8048 console at London Bridge Studios in Seattle. You'll also get a slew of controls to help you manipulate and dial in your tone, while three separate mixes provide additional ambience. This inventive collection of instruments and presets infuses shoegaze into any recording, sending your track into the ether.
