Skyridge Black Friday pricing puts this ethereal vocal instrument from ZAK Sound at 40% off, so it costs $23.40 until Nov 19, 2026.
Skyridge is a synth plugin that turns recordings of the human voice into celestial pads, evolving choirs and slowly shifting atmospheres. It runs on the Raizes Player.
The maker describes it as an ethereal vocal-based instrument for pads, choirs, mysterious atmospheres, expressive MPE playing and otherworldly pulses.
It works from 78 vocal-based sampled sources and eight complementary wavetables. That gives you 86 sound sources in total, and the palette reaches well past a conventional choir.
The presets cover a wide stretch of colour. Some are soft and recognizable vocal tones, some are distant ensemble-like layers, and others are abstract sounds that the maker says are felt as much as heard.
According to ZAK Sound, human tones become harmonic clouds, luminous pads, dark resonances, spectral textures and rhythmic pulses. Slowly evolving cinematic environments sit in the same collection.
The breath, resonance, tone and imperfection of the voice are kept, then reshaped into an atmospheric instrument. The maker points it at film, ambient music, electronic production and experimental sound design.
If you play an MPE controller, the MPE presets are the ones to start with. Pressure and gesture shape the sound while you perform, so a held pad can move with your hands.
Skyridge installs and runs inside the free Raizes Player. The small download keeps it light on disk.
The 36 MIDI files give you ready-made phrases to drop onto a track. They were written to suit the vocal character of the instrument, so they work as a starting point for a pad or choir part.
