Arturia JUP-8000 V – Trance Gates Soundbank/Presets 👉🏻 https://allanmorrowstudios.com/trance-music/arturia-jup-8000-v-trance-gates-soundbank-presets/
This bank is dedicated purely to Trance Gates.
It’s built around those hypnotic gated sounds that add movement, rhythm and atmosphere to a track. The kind of sounds that can drive a section on their own, sit behind a lead, or add texture to a breakdown.
Inside you’ll find 30 gated presets designed specifically for the Arturia JUP-8000 V. Lush gated pads, more rhythmic pulsing gates, deeper atmospheric layers and a few with a bit more character and movement. Some sit nicely in the background. Others can easily work as the main focus in a section.
They’re flexible sounds that can be used in multiple ways across a track. As a lead, as a pad, as a rhythmic layer or as a background texture.
All of them are designed to work inside a real track!
If you’re working on a track and it needs more movement, atmosphere or rhythmic energy, this is exactly what this bank is for.
Be sure to check out the other Arturia JUP-8000 V soundbanks available.

Classic Trance and Dance Legacy Vol. 1 – Serum 2 Soundbank (65 HQ Presets)
If you’re someone who still gets goosebumps from that late 90s to mid 2000s Trance and Dance sound… this bank is going to hit home straight away.
Sunset put this together with one goal in mind: recreate the tones we all fell in love with back when supersaws were huge, leads were emotional but raw, and even a simple pluck could spark an entire melody. Everything inside has been shaped around that era, rebuilt from scratch inside Serum 2 using custom waveforms, tuned supersaws, MG and French LP filters, and careful emulation of the hardware that defined the time.
All wrapped into one bank, ready to drop straight into your projects.
You’ll get 65 presets, covering the full palette of classic Trance and Dance styles:
Classic Trance
Euro Trance
Epic Dance
Hard Trance
Vintage Rave
Preset breakdown
PL – Plucks 20
LD – Leads 20
SY – Synths and Keys 8
AC – Acid / TB-Style 5
BS – Basslines 7
PD – Pads and Atmospheres 5
If you’ve wanted that classic hardware flavour inside Serum 2 without needing an actual rack of synths… Sunset has nailed it with this one.

Catchy Trance Melody Writing Tutorial
Tired of writing melodies that sound flat, repetitive, or just don’t stick in your listener’s head? In this tutorial, I’ll show you my exact process for writing catchy Trance melodies that grab attention, evolve naturally, and keep the listener engaged from start to finish — all without needing deep music theory knowledge.
You’ll see how I approach writing 7 x different melodies from scratch, focusing on the feel and movement rather than complicated scales or chord progressions. I’ll walk you through how to write a strong hook, then show you how to keep it interesting with subtle variations, clever note choices, and ways to evolve the melody over time so it never becomes boring or predictable.
These are the same methods I use in my own productions and with clients who’ve gone on to sign tracks to their favourite labels. Whether you’re struggling to start a melody or can’t seem to make it sound “catchy enough,” this tutorial will give you a practical framework and proven techniques to finally write melodies that stand out.
Get ready to simplify your workflow, stop second-guessing yourself, and start writing Trance melodies that truly stick!
The Catchy Trance Melody Writing Tutorial covers:
⬤ How I approach melody writing from scratch
⬤ Why the first bar can make or break your melody
⬤ How to spot “hidden” patterns that make melodies more addictive
⬤ Clever tricks to alter your hooks without losing their catchiness
⬤ How to use unrelated midi patterns to make melodies
⬤ What I focus on instead of music theory when writing melodies
⬤ Subtle ways to change the mood of your melody while keeping the hook alive
⬤ How I decide which notes to change (and which to leave alone) when evolving a hook
⬤ How to change up the “copy and paste” sound that kills emotion in melodies
⬤ Tricks for making repeated melodies feel like they’re progressing
⬤ The small tweaks that can completely change how a melody feels
⬤ How to create movement and tension without changing too many notes
⬤ The exact thought process behind writing a catchy melody
⬤ How to make melodies from a 1 bar pattern
⬤ Creating changes in your progressions
⬤ My thought process around the catchy parts of a melody
