EXPANSE is a collection of multi-sampled 24bit waveforms that can be played as instruments, used as drones, or to create tonal beds.

This special version of EXPANSE for Reason includes custom built Combinator patches that allow for expressive control over the timbre, envelope, space, motion, and other variables in relation to the structure of the patch.
