A Collection of Sonic Experiments


We are privileged and excited to welcome Christopher Young (Hellraiser, Spider-Man 3, Sinister, Swordfish, Ghost Rider, The Rum Diary, etc) to the 8Dio Catalogue with this exclusive collection curated from over 35 years of recordings and sonic experiments. Young has a beautifully unique way of approaching scores – not just by working with orchestras and performers, but also by weaving musical sound design and textures into his music. This results in an incredible collection of organic textures and pro-grade scoring tools. 

The Christopher Young Series contains two distinct libraries: Textural Worlds and Orchestral Touch. Textural Worlds includes thousands of unique soundscapes and organic effects. The sound sources vary from traditional instruments like strings, pianos, flute to more exotic instruments like whistles, modified toy instruments, and a large assortment of vocal and otherworldly textures. Orchestral Touch is a large collection of orchestral effects specifically composed and designed by Christopher Young. These sounds are organized into several banks of arcs, shorts, and other effects, so you can easily find the perfect sounds for your music. Additionally, The Collection Bundle includes an exclusive Bonus Library created by combining both Textural Worlds and Orchestral Touch together.

8Dio designed a new, advanced user interface for the Christopher Young collection, offering a wealth of unique features.  Perhaps the most prominent is our new IR Engine (Impulse Response Engine).  The IR Engine allows you to turn any sample in the library into a convolution impulse.  The impulse can then be superimposed on any other sample in the library, creating some truly unique effects within effects.  In addition, the user interface also includes instant stack, reverse, stretch, off-set and chaos functions. The Christopher Young Collection includes our Chaos FX 4.0 engine, which allows you to create virtually any FX chain.

Organic Textures

Christopher Young is known for his incredible versatility and use of both orchestral and non-orchestral elements into his scores. We have created two libraries to compliment both elements. The first, Textural Worlds, contains thousands of super organic scoring elements made with a vast array of playful methods and innovative recording techniques. The second, Orchestral Touch, represents thousands of unique aleatoric effects by Christopher Young.

Infinite Sound Design

Christopher Young Series Bundle

The Christopher Young libraries offer infinite options for sound design. Start with over 16,000 hauntingly beautiful samples by Christopher Young. Then, add our new IR engine that allows you to make any sample into a convolution impulse. We include features like instant stacking, reversing, time-stretching, and the advanced Chaos engine 4.0.

4-Part Modulation Engine and New Chaos FX 4.0

The Christopher Young libraries also contain our new 4-part modulation engine for extreme sample and effects work. The 4 modulation engines each contain their own X/Y grid, and you can assign an FX parameter to both the X/Y value. Powerful functions like reverse and stack are only a click away. Nothing stands in the way of your creativity.
