25 Vintage Lead Presets for Cherry Audio SH-Max – Cinematic & Prog Rock Synth Sounds
Key Features
- 25 presets for Cherry Audio SH-Max
- Sonic identity: slow evolving leads, vintage analog tone, resonant progressions, expressive auto-bends
- Designed for soundtrack, cinematic, progressive rock, and retro electronic music
- Includes atmospheric rises, dark character leads, sharp transient leads, and emotional melodic textures
Cherry Audio SH-Max – Shine Grey contains 25 presets centered mainly on evolving lead sounds shaped by a distinctive vintage synthetic character. While the collection emphasizes slow-moving tonal development, it also includes more direct and agile lead variations. Most patches are designed to unfold with filter motion, controlled modulation, and expressive pitch behavior that enhances performance dynamics.
Drawing inspiration from 70s and 80s synthesis, the soundbank blends progressive rock-style resonant ascents and descents, warm retro textures, and atmospheric rises suited to cinematic scoring. Dark leads with analog-style weight are complemented by sharper transient-focused sounds, emotional melodic leads, and auto-bending synth lines that introduce movement and individuality to phrases.
Shine Grey adapts naturally to soundtrack composition, vintage-inspired electronic music, experimental productions, and melodic instrumental work. The presets emphasize the tonal identity of the SH-Max architecture while offering a versatile range of textures for expressive passages, evolving motifs, rhythmic accents, and gradual build-ups.
