ZAK Sound launched Ethersphere as an atmospheric expansion for their Raizes synthesizer plugin. The company simultaneously upgraded Raizes to version 1.1 with enhanced functionality. Ethersphere provides 37 wavetables and 100 presets targeting cinematic, electronic, and ambient music production. Sound designers and composers receive specialized tools for creating evolving pads and textural atmospheres. The expansion retails for $29, 27 EUR, or 23 GBP with a temporary 35 percent discount through October 8, 2025.
Version 1.1 brings substantial improvements to the Raizes interface and capabilities. Users gain access to a redesigned main tab featuring a grains visualizer alongside new filter displays. The update enables copy and paste operations between modules while introducing a fully draggable ADSR envelope. Extended timing reaches 30 seconds with adjustable curves for precise sound shaping. Existing customers download the free upgrade from their ZAK Sound account pages, though all expansions require updates for complete compatibility.
