Build Layered Sounds with Four Instrument Parts

AIR Xpand!2 allows musicians to combine up to four stereo instrument parts within a single patch. Each part can use its own MIDI channel, keyboard zone, volume, panning, modulation, arpeggiator, and effects settings. This flexible structure makes it possible to create layered leads, keyboard splits, rhythmic textures, and complete performance setups inside one plugin instance.

Explore an Extensive Preset Library

The included sound library provides more than 2,500 presets and parts for a wide range of musical styles. Users can quickly browse acoustic and electronic pianos, organs, pads, synthesizer leads, basses, guitars, orchestral instruments, drums, percussion, loops, ambient textures, and sound effects. The broad selection helps producers find usable sounds without building every patch from the beginning.

Shape Sounds with Multiple Synthesis Engines

AIR Xpand!2 combines subtractive synthesis, FM synthesis, tonewheel technology, and sample playback. These different sound-generation methods provide access to classic electronic tones, realistic instruments, evolving textures, and experimental effects. Smart Knobs offer direct control over important parameters, while Easy Edit controls make it simple to adjust the character of the complete layered patch.

Create Movement with Arpeggiators and Effects

Each of the four instrument parts includes independent arpeggiation controls, allowing users to build synchronized melodic patterns and complex multitrack sequences. Two integrated effects processors provide 50 editable effect types for adding space, depth, movement, and tonal variation without relying entirely on additional plugins.
