The AWL Synthcraft Wish You Were Here Sound Pack is a premium, performance-ready sound library for Korg Kronos, created for live keyboard players who want authentic album-inspired sounds without spending hours programming Programs, Combinations, samples, splits, layers and performance setups from scratch.

Designed and programmed by Andrea Loiero, founder and sound designer of AWL Synthcraft, the library recreates the essential keyboard and synthesizer textures associated with Pink Floyd’s Wish You Were Here using the native synthesis engines of the Korg Kronos together with original AWL Synthcraft sample-based textures.

The pack includes 26 custom Programs, performance-ready Combinations and custom samples covering the complete album sequence, with balanced levels and practical layouts developed for rehearsals and live performance.

• Practical keyboard layers and performance setups

• Custom sample-based pads, basses and atmospheric textures

• Stage-ready sounds for the complete album
