1989 for Cherry Audio Dreamsynth is a nostalgic soundset diving deep into the glossy world of 80s and 90s pop. Inspired by the digital hardware romplers that defined chart music of the era, these sounds bring back shimmering pads, 80s keys, slapping basses and a mixture of synthetic synth and lofi sampled sounds that coloured radio hits and late-night TV soundtracks.

1989 is pushing the hybrid engine of the Dreamsynth to capture that unmistakable polished sheen of vintage PCM hardware. From lush layered strings and digital choirs to FM-tinged bells and ring modulated synth sounds, this collection celebrates the era when pop music was drenched in reverb and gated snares ruled the charts.

Whether you’re crafting retro ballads, neon-lit synthpop, or modern synthwave with vintage character, 1989 puts the unmistakable sound of 80s/90s pop production at your fingertips.
