The Solids Chromaphone 3 Black Friday deal is 51% off, bringing this Applied Acoustics Systems sound bank to $19 until Nov 18, 2026.
Solids is a set of 102 patches for Chromaphone 3. The maker describes it as a showcase of what the synth can do across very different styles.
Expect wide variety here, with sounds reaching from vintage house keys and Rhodes-style pianos all the way to film-style atmospheres that glisten and morph over time.
The maker lists these sound families:
AAS says some patches blur the line between analogue, FM and physical modelling. It pitches the set at synthwave and soundtrack productions.
The patches are meant to sit alongside the original Chromaphone 3 factory library. They pair familiar keyboard classics with more experimental textures, so you can load a bread-and-butter electric piano on one track and a shimmering evolving pad on the next.
Your purchase comes with these items:
All AAS sound banks run on the free AAS Player, and the player ships with this purchase. If you use plain keyboard-style tones as a starting point and want a few unusual ones too, the bank is set up for both.
Once the bank is installed, you have two ways to play it.
If Chromaphone 3 is on your computer, the maker says the bank is added to it automatically. You then browse and load the patches from inside the synth.
If you don't own Chromaphone 3, open the bank in the AAS Player instead. It works as a plug-in in your DAW or as a standalone application.
Either way, you get the same 102 patches. The difference is whether you load them in the full Chromaphone 3 synth or in the free player.
Yes. The Solids Chromaphone 3 Black Friday deal takes 51% off, so the sound bank costs $19 until Nov 18, 2026. It is a preset collection for Chromaphone 3 from Applied Acoustics Systems.
The purchase includes the preset bank for Chromaphone 3, the free AAS Player plug-in in VST, AU, AAX and RTAS formats, a serial number and installation instructions. The bank holds 102 patches in total.
No. The bank works with the Chromaphone 3 synthesizer, but you can also play it in the free AAS Player, as a plug-in or a standalone app. The player is included with your purchase.
The maker lists house organs, electric pianos, shimmering cinematic textures, electric guitar and plucked strings, bells and chimes, punchy basses and ethereal pads. Some patches blur analogue, FM and physical modelling.
