Sonora’s Refraction redefines piano as a spectral dream machine

Sonora Cinematic released a new instrument called Refraction, a heavily processed piano library. It uses samples from a real upright but transforms them into pads and electronic textures instead of classic piano sounds. A spectral resonator engine makes notes bloom and morph by generating harmonics from the original recordings.

Users can tweak individual harmonics and use a central bloom control for expression, even muting the main piano to play just the resonance. The mixer includes multiple microphone signals and a worn tape echo effect. It runs in Kontakt Player or the full version, requiring about ten gigabytes of space.

The plugin is available now at an introductory price of under seventy-one pounds.
