TRUSTED BY PROFESSIONALS
“Time Crystals delivers a large range of performance-oriented ambient possibilities, with an otherworldly low end and sparkly, multi-faceted highs. The presets harness a creative understanding of pitch and timbre which emerges from the specific source material of crystal bowls, with their distinctive overtones and textures. Effects are sonically satisfying and as always the Infinite Motion Engine provides many options to customize, enliven, and transform ideas with total automation and flexibility.
Time Crystals is also a great starting point for further processing, and lends itself to thinking outside the box about sound design and composition. A perfect fit for sculpting cinematic universes beyond our rational comprehension!"
RONIT KIRCHMAN COMPOSER
THE SINNER, EVIL EYE, PRETTY LITTLE LIARS: ORIGINAL SIN
“From the second I loaded up Time Crystals and started playing with it, I knew it was a keeper. Usable across many genres. Wonderfully organic—but when put through the Infinite Motion Engine the sounds can be tweaked, screwed up, and processed to be unrecognizable. Clear Zen-like tones or distorted pads, dark drones, evolving and sometimes unsettling pulses—that’s the strength of this library"
CHRISTOPHER HOYT KNIGHT COMPOSER
YOU, ADMISSION GRANTED, THE DYNASTY: NEW ENGLAND PARTRIOTS
“This is a wonderfully fun textural library! Perfect for “flashback” or “out of body experience” type scenes. This will be a great addition to my toolbox!"
DANNY LUX COMPOSER
GREY'S ANATOMY, MANIFEST
“Time Crystals knows no end when it comes to applications. From never-ending textures to magical bells and transitions—Time Crystals keeps you inspired, and offers that unique character that only the Infinite Motion Engine can give you.

ORIGIN STORY
Quartz in Motion – A Sonic Vessel for Infinite Evolution.
Born from the luminous resonance of quartz singing bowls, Time Crystals turns timeless tones into a living instrument. With Non-Static Sampling™ and Infinite Motion Engine™ 2.0, every note continuously blooms, shifts, and transforms, never looping the same way twice. Explore a responsive ecosystem of pulses, drones, pads, and keys that breathe with your music, from vast cinematic atmospheres to intimate ambient worlds. Step into sound that stays in motion
Meet The SOUNDCRAFTER OF TIME CRYSTALS
Michael Vignola is a sonic architect, a composer driven by an insatiable curiosity for sound in motion. As the founder of Emergence Audio, he blends classical, ambient, and electronic elements with intricate sound design, creating immersive musical landscapes that transcend traditional composition. His work has resonated with audiences worldwide, earning over 6 billion streams and numerous accolades for his ability to shape emotion through sound.
Vignola’s fascination with music began in the subtle, overlooked details—the hum of an air conditioner, the resonance of everyday frequencies. This deep listening evolved into a lifelong pursuit of sonic innovation, leading him to develop instruments that breathe, shift, and evolve in real time.
With Time Crystals, he invites you to step beyond static sound into an ever-changing sonic space—where quartz sings, textures unfold, and music is not just heard, but felt in motion.
What Makes Time Crystals different?
1. A Living, Breathing Sound Experience
Most sample libraries are static. Time Crystals is alive.
Built with Non-Static Sampling™, every note evolves naturally. No two notes sampled are ever the same, unlocking a new level of expression for composers and sound designers.
2. A Fusion of Ancient & Modern Sound
Quartz Singing Bowls, Reimagined
By blending the timeless resonance of quartz singing bowls with cutting-edge sound design, Time Crystals creates textures that feel both organic and futuristic—perfect for film scoring, ambient music, and beyond.
3. The Infinite Motion Engine™
Evolving soundscapes with deep control.
Unlike traditional sample libraries that rely on static loops, the Infinite Motion Engine™ 2.0 introduces a generative synthesis approach, allowing sound to evolve in real-time. With built-in LFOs, automation controls, and over 100 customizable parameters, you can shape movement, texture, and depth effortlessly.
Modulation, effects, and intricate motion can be fine-tuned without additional programming, making it an intuitive yet powerful tool for composers and sound designers..
4. Limitless Creative Freedom
Designed for film, TV, ambient, experimental, and meditative music, Time Crystals adapts to your creativity. Whether you need cinematic tension, atmospheric pads, or ethereal textures, this instrument unlocks endless inspiration in every note.
NON-STATIC sAMPLING™
Complexity Made Simple
Non-Static Sampling™ was developed at Emergence Audio to preserve how sound naturally unfolds over time, rather than isolating a single static moment.
Each note comes from an independent performance with its own duration and internal motion. Notes and layers do not share a global timeline, so subtle divergence keeps developing as sound sustains, pushing perceptual repetition far beyond typical listening sessions.
Shaped by Infinite Motion Engine™ 2.0, this evolving behavior can be guided and transformed without forcing every layer into the same timing.
Created by Emergence Audio founder Michael Vignola, Non-Static Sampling™ addresses a core limitation of traditional sampling: sound is captured, but time is flattened.
HOW WILL YOU SHAPE TIME?
There's No Beginning Or End
a Living soundscape:
evolving textures in motion
Beneath the surface, a meticulously woven cascade of organic timbres unfolds, each evolving independently over time. Like patterns in nature, these sounds breathe, shift, and transform, creating a living tapestry of tone and texture where no two moments are the same. The result is an instrument that stays fresh and immersive, revealing nuance and depth with every listen and inviting exploration, emotion, and endless creativity.
