Many years ago Nick created a bunch of presets for Zebra². But they were divided in a few packs and it
was very uncomfortable to use them. When Zebra² got the update with the new preset-browser he reorganized all
presets (old ones and a new ones) into one pack. He also deleted useless info from them like website links (which
are unavailable now) and etc. These are released under the Creative Commons license
allowing anyone to use them as they see fit. This pack contains over 640 presets and replaces all his old sets. |

| Z2.5 Tease |
Urs |
8 Presets made by Urs to showcase the new Zebra² 2.5 filter modes. In his words, I just
built a Roland SH-07 structure for the bass and lead (but lead with Duophonic mode), and
the chords are done with a patch that simulates an 8-voice unison Jupiter 8 (modelled after
some sound examples I found).You can hear his teaser song
here. |

Trance or Progressive House lover!
There is a demo track showcasing a few of
the sounds. Please read the included README for all the details. |

These sounds are not made for their spectral structure, but for their time line, like Bullegory. Or some
curiosity like Microponging, Mittalgongho and Microtoning, where the sound go from the high - in the left
part of the keyboard - to the low sound in the right part. They are made for experiments or psycho-movies. |

These are for the people that say Zebra does not do dirty. Each individual patch is like a mini synth
with key modifiers mapped to the X/Y pads and also to Kore controllers. Each patch has 8
variations to illustrate the amount of flexibility but Justin recommends that you explore the X/Y
pads yourself.
