Audio Imperia POSEIDON: Full Walkthrough & Demo Track Breakdown
Audio Imperia just released their new brass library, Poseidon, and I wrote a full demo track to see if it lives up to the hype.
In this video, I walk you through the entire Cubase session of my demo track. We dive deep into the specific patches (including the massive "Ocean" sound design tool), how I layer Poseidon with Nucleus and Areia, and the exact processing chain I use to get that modern, epic trailer sound.
