Spitfire Audio is excited to introduce The Shoe Factory, the latest library by composer Oliver Patrice Weder, on July 11th 2024.

This beautifully curated library is inspired by an age-old shoe factory, situated in a small village in Mallorca’s Tramuntana Mountains, which the composer calls home. The ambient sounds within the factory sparked Weder’s imagination resulting in a one-of-a-kind library consisting of grinding machine loops, cinematic, echoed percussion and incredible ambient textures, swells and shorts.

This release follows libraries previously created by Weder (OPW  and The Pool Project). The Shoe Factory embraces the unexpected, inviting composers to think outside the box, or rather, to see the beauty in the everyday.

The library includes “57 presets and an easy-to-use and intuitive UI” – Spitfire Audio are proud to share a library which is accessible and interpretable by  music-makers at any level of ability. It’s all about imagination.

• An intuitive UI with seamlessly integrated FX including ‘Grime’, ‘Distortion’ and ‘Reverb’, as well as ‘Attack’ and ‘Release’
• An integrated speed slider to adjust the length of swells
• Oliver’s grand piano with two signals intimately recorded with a pair of C414s, and key release and pedal volume control
• Characterful brass trio and sax swells with a blend of close and room mics
• Factory Echoes with 3 different layers for an evocative and aleatoric ambience texture
• Factory Textures and grinding machine loops produced from field recordings at still intact shoe factories

The Shoe Factory is available now and can be purchased through Spitfire Audio for 99.00 (GBP/EU/USD).
