Nexus is a long-form sound design project for Hive 2 — a trilogy of interconnected preset packs designed for cinematic composition, experimental production, and expressive electronic music.
Instead of treating presets as static snapshots, Nexus approaches sound as a system: animated, modular, and continuously transformable through performance-focused macro controls.
Each volume in the series explores a different layer of the same core:
- Nexus I: The Pulse — rhythmic sequences and arpeggiated motion, focused on energy, drive, and momentum
- Nexus II: The Rift — impacts, signals, transitions, and fractured events designed for tension and punctuation
- Nexus III: The Veil — evolving pads, drones, and soundscapes built for depth, immersion, and atmosphere
All Nexus presets are deeply macro-assigned, allowing rapid tonal shifts, motion changes, and expressive variation from a minimal control surface. This makes the series equally suited for detailed sound design sessions and fast compositional workflows.
Nexus is intended for composers, producers, and sound designers working in cinematic, dark, surreal, and immersive contexts — for film, games, trailers, and experimental electronic music.
