Kissed by the 90s

Vapor Keys is a collection of custom Electric Pianos mixed with various FM, Wavetable and Algorithmic synthesizer sounds and designed to create gorgeous and bold modern neo-90s sounds. The collection is inspired by classic movies and artists like Luxury Elite, Macintosh Plus, ２ ８ １ ４ or Hong Kong Express. The collection is divided into two parts: Electric Pianos and Vapor Keys.

9 Electric Pianos

Electric Pianos are dry, multi velocity sampled instruments with classic EP presets from vintage FM gear with 2 effects / patch: a detuned chorus and a phaser.

With this selection you get access to great authentic FM Electric Pianos from the 80s and 90s. All samples are recorded key-to-key in 24 bit 48kHz. Karanyi captured these sounds with analog gear and by applying the minimum software post-production process to keep these patches rich and fresh.

14 Vapor Keys

Vapor Keys are heavily sound-designed keyboard instruments with dry and wet signals mixed together from various FM pianos, other synth sources and reverb gears. These patches are great for chords, arps and shorter soundscapes. Karanyi captured authentic, classic instruments algorithmic and fm (Yamaha DX7 and TX81z) and modern wavetable (Arturia MicroFreak) synthesizers along with various Eventide reverb units and tape machines to create these extraordinary presets.

ARIA Sounds are proud to present “Surdos & Snares”, a percussion ensemble consisting of three snares and three surdo drums, all placed in the displayed formation (screenshot below), and reproduced faithfully, so you can play these drums, and they will sound in these positions.

We have absolutely pushed the variation and authenticity to the limit with this library. There are 127 dynamic layers per hit/technique/key in these drums, which provides even more benefits than the obvious lack of repetition, or the dreaded “machine-gun effect”. Say you record/play in a performance with this instrument, and then possibly go into the MIDI data and tweak a few hits’ dynamics to get the performance how you want it… and then decide the general feel needs to be either louder or quieter.

Each drum has been played with varied techniques, including soft mallets, sticks, rims, hands, different brushes.

Click each of the drum icons on the interface to loud and unloud that particular drum. Unloaded drums will appear on the keyboard interface as black, and loaded drums with active samples will be shown as blue keys.

Sax Fury is a new library designed for film composers and producers looking for powerful and original sax extended techniques and textures.

Conjure the sounds of the undead with the Aztec Death Whistle

The Aztec Death Whistle is a deeply sampled folk wind instrument that captures the dark soul of the ancient Aztec death whistle, a ceremonial clay resonator used during human sacrifice rituals and warfare at the height of the Aztec (historically also known as the Mexica) empire in Central America, during the 14 and 15th centuries AD in what has now become modern day Mexico.

This whistle—technically grouped into the same family of whistles as bird and animal call whistles— is made of kiln-fired clay. It has two chambers which create air cavities that are resonated by blowing into the top of the skull. It produces a harsh, raspy atonal vocal sound very much like a dying breath, but with a shrill demonic essence that is certain to evoke dread on an almost instinctive level. It is the sound of death incarnate.

We recorded sustains, flutter-tongues, staccatos, hand percussion in our dry studio with deep dynamic layering and 12x round-robin. You’ll also find single-shot dramatic stinger effects, such as swells, crescendos and diminuendos. We then recorded the instrument in a large cathedral from both close and far stereo mic positions to bring out a darker, more mysterious and ambient quality. We also created a wide variety of dark, ethereal and sinister sound designed ambiences, synth patches and FX presets created with the raw acoustic source to give you plenty of nightmare fuel to get your horror on. They make an ideal accompaniment to the main natural articulations in this library.

Aztec Death Whistle comes equipped with flexible control features, like attack, release, transient offset, dynamic swelling, octave, vibrato and a robust Arpeggiator system that provides a full range of custom dynamic arpeggiation modes and step sequencer pattern creation options. There’s also a complete DSP effects rack, including convolution reverb with dozens of unique spaces, such as cathedrals, churches, halls, bunkers, garages, tunnels, chambers, rooms and plenty of special FX impulses to fully explore and endless variety of strange and unexpected sonic manipulations

The third release of the “Groove Butter” series, The Closed Hats features 100 different closed Hi-hat presets made from 2.450 carefully recorded and processed one shot samples. The Hats are playable over four octaves and all presets are velocity sensitive and tuned.

We have recorded a lot of different drum machines in the past and we have now selected some of the rare ones and run them through our saturation, compressing, cleaning process and built a nice GUI for you to have lots of fun with, by turning 44 knobs to get a satisfying beat making experience for musicans and listeners. There are some totally clean and classic sounding closed Hihats and some which we have barely overworked to get some more modern or aggressive results, to fill the toolbox for different music genres.

Add some extra drama by using the pitchbend in combination with some of the useful effects, in a handy and intuitive GUI design. Use the reverb, delay and flanger section to add some width and epicness. You can go real crazy if you want to. In the mid section of the instrument you will find some more tone focussed effects like a compressor, a saturation unit, a powerful overdrive / distortion section and finally the low and hi-pass filters.

On the left side of the instrument you got a few knobs to build up the total shape and mood of the hi-hat sound by using tune, amplitude and pitch envelopes, a section to manage the speed of the sample and also a very useful transient shaper to add some extra attack and punch to the drums.

Features:

We are excited to announce the next release of our Groove Butter series: the Maracas & Shakers.

This plugin features 105 unique shaker and maracas presets, carefully crafted from 1,725 meticulously recorded and sampled one-shots.

Each preset is playable over two octaves and is velocity-sensitive in a musical way. We recorded 11 shakers and 6 maracas with 5 microphones, as well as sampled 4 different drum machines. After running them through our saturation, compression, and cleaning process, we designed an intuitive GUI with 45 knobs for an enjoyable beat-making experience.

The plugin includes clean and classic-sounding maracas and shakers, as well as more synthetic or unusual options.

We also overworked some of them to achieve a modern or aggressive sound suitable for different genres. Add extra drama by using the pitch bend in combination with the useful effects available in the intuitive GUI design, including reverb, delay, and flanger.

The mid-section of the instrument features tone-focused effects, such as a compressor, a saturation unit, a powerful overdrive/distortion section, and low and hipass filters. On the left side of the instrument, you can shape the total mood of the drum sound by using tune, amplitude, and pitch envelopes, manage the sample speed, and add extra attack and punch to the drums with the transient shaper.

The Artist

All around Cattaneo is about space, minimalism, elegance and gesture. No matter if it’s music, sound experimentation, filmmaking or decorative art, style and attention for details are his motto.

Paolo Cattaneo is an Italian musician, songwriter, electronic performer and instrument collector and builder. He published 5 acclaimed albums and EPs, one of which produced by Hugo Race, legendary guitarist of Nick Cave. He’s also a member of electronic duo Jay Perkins. We joint-ventured with this wonderful artist to create a new signature series and capture some of the sounds that captured us in the first place: we spent days in his beautiful studio in Italy to sample his unique upright piano, his modified and “augmented” electric piano and lots of little instruments, like a vintage claviharp and other gems for future releases.

Here comes the third release of our new ‘Groove Butter’ series. ‘The Clap’ features 99 different clap presets made from 1,275 carefully recorded one shot samples. The drums are playable over two octaves.

All presets are velocity sensitive in a very musical way and also tuned.

We have recorded a lot of different drum machines in the last years and now selected some of the rare ones and run them thru our saturation, compressing, cleaning process and finally build a nice GUI for you to have lots of fun by turning 44 knobs to get a satisfying beat making experience for musicians and also the listeners.

There are some totally clean and original sounding famous hand claps and also some which we have hardly overworked to get some more modern or aggressive results to fill the toolbox for different music genres too.

Add some extra drama by using the pitchbend in combination with some of the useful effects you got here in a very handy and intuitive GUI design.

You have the possibility to make the sound more epic and stereo by using the reverb, delay and flanger section.

Here you can go real crazy if you want to. In the mid section of the instrument you will find some more tone focussed effects like a compressor, a saturation unit, a powerful overdrive / distortion section and finally the low and high pass filters.

The EKO Stradivarius is one of the rarest and hardest to find string synthesisers from the 1970’s.

It has an incredibly rich and vibrant sound all of its own.

I personally spent a long while hunting one of these synths down and eventually found one, but it was in Italy and had to be shipped here. I could not find one in the UK!

The EKO was released in the 1970’s and used by the likes of Vangelis during his 70’s live shows, the EKO produces beautiful and haunting string sounds of that era. Our version will allow for you to easily create those sounds and go way beyond what the original hardware can do.

Each of the 6 original sections of the EKO stradivarius has been sampled in great detail.

PLEASE NOTE: The FULL version of Kontakt 5.8.1 is required (NOT Kontakt Player)

Deep Effects

The effects section has bus sends for each synth section and allows for you to ‘dial in’ just the right amount of effects for each section.

Effects List:

• Chorus
• Phaser
• Flanger
• Reverb (Convolution – 37 Impulses to choose from)
• Sync Delay

All audio demos and video demos use only the presets from this Kontakt instrument.

Suitable for all kinds of music from abstract electronics, 70’s disco, modern EDM. Would also sound great being used to score a Zombie movie like Romero’s Dawn of the dead or some obscure Italian horrow/zombie movie.

Extra Controls

We have added many, many extra features to allow for greater sounds to be created from the core sound of the EKO Stradivarius. We also added a special set of Ensemble processed samples for a very rich and vibrant sound. Both sample sets can be freely mixed with each other for extra creativity.

How about each section panning independently of each other?

Each section also has independent filter shapes with a huge range of filter types to choose from, vowel filters, phasers filters and each synth section (all 6) has them – lots of scope for sound creation or use the snapshots that come supplied which will give a wide range of sounds that can be tweaked and modified by you.

Easily create beautiful and lush strings, haunting pads, synth leads, special analogue type effects, synth stabs and then pass them through the effects section.

Secure Serial System

This product features its own custom serial system.

You will require the full version of Kontakt to load EKO (Not Kontakt Player).

When you purchase EKO you will be provided with a unique code which is required to unlock the instrument. Please check out the install and unlock video for more information.

Sounds that you’d never imagine could come out of a piano – for Kontakt 4 and above.

The vol.1 of Hybrichord is our first exploration into what we can really get out of a normal piano, and the initial results are fantastic.

Using various means of getting the instrument to vibrate, including wiring the instrument up, using magnets, electric current, etc, we managed to create some fantastic organic sounding sonic landscapes.

The user interface has controls to allow you to shape and sculpt some of the sound to your liking for use in your music.

Of course, we have also included a variety of more well known experimental techniques, including picks, plucks, bows, hammers, drumming, screws in the strings etc.

This library contains over 4GB of excellent cinematic content, recorded at 96KHz, 24Bit.

The Soprano Melodica is a nice and easy to use reed instrument made since 1958 by the german company Hohner*.

The sound is generated by blowing air through a mouthpiece into fine brass reeds like those used in Harmocicas.

This underrated instrument was used by musicians like UB40, Depeche Mode, The Gorillas, The Hooters, Supertramp and… you too name a few!

We are very happy to get our hands on one of these rare old instruments in a very good, maybe never used, condition. This is one of the very first Melodicas ever made.

Overview

We have recorded this old, fantastic sounding beauty with four different types of microphones thru well selected preamps after some time consuming experiments:

• Piezo Mic (attached to the chassis)
• Condenser Mic (placed 30 cm in front of the instrument)
• Dynamic Mic (placed 30 cm in front of the instrument)
• Stereo Mic (placed overhead)

Specifications

• 20 Kontakt Instruments
• 281 Samples (44.1kHz / 24Bit)
• Four Mics (piezo, condenser, dynamic, stereo)

A Wooden Orff Tuned Percussion & Sound-Design library built for Kontakt

Alto Xylophone is a deeply sampled Orff tuned percussion instrument primarily found in elementary music classrooms, measuring at just over two feet long. It has a warm plunky tone and fast decay, with 13 rosewood bars laid in a diatonic C major scale from C4 – A5. We used felt mallets to capture each note, then recorded glisses and percussive knocks. We also sampled two soprano xylophones an octave higher: One has 13 notes (C5-A6) with a rounded playful timbre, while the other has 12 notes (C5- G6) with a crisp biting tone, performed with mallets and wooden cube hammers.

All three xylophones were recorded in a dry studio using two microphone positions, with 10 round robin and up to 14 velocity layers per note.

After that, we expanded these natural wooden tones with 20 ambient organic soundscapes and 20 custom FX presets to kickstart your creative exploration. Alto Xylophone fits comfortably in any genre from horror to jazz, and it’s ready to bring acoustic percussive accents to your next composition. This library comes with an adaptable LFO system, with selectable LFO shape, modulation target parameter, speed, intensity, tempo-syncing and fade-in time. You can also apply your choice of 12 lowpass, high-pass and FX filters, with assignable modulation targets such as velocity, modwheel, expression, after-touch, key position and step-sequencer table control. Our customizable arpeggiator offers a velocity table and control over arp direction, timing, swing, randomization and duration.

We’ve included a key and scale lock system to constrain your notes to common scales and keys for easy melodic composition and live performance.

The interface is rounded-out by our modular FX rack panel, with 18 different DSP effect modules that you can assign in any of 10 available slots, in any order that you wish. You’ll find classic phaser, flanger, delay, distortion, amp and cab simulators, compressors, EQ, rotator and so much more. The Reverb effect includes our favorite convolution reverb impulse responses, including 99 different rooms, halls, chambers and outdoor environments, plus another 40 custom FX impulses to radically transform the sound and open up whole new worlds of musical possibility.

We’ve added a great bank of FX rack chain factory presets to get you started!

Elysium Harp is a 47-string grand concert pedal harp virtual instrument library, fully compatible with the free Kontakt Player and Komplete Kontrol S-Series Keyboards by Native Instruments. We recorded this massive Lyon & Healy bronze concert harp in exquisite detail, with extended articulation choices, advanced controls, easy play-assist features and warm presence across the entire key range.

We’ve covered classic Finger Plucks with long sustains, deep round-robin and dynamic layering for each string. We also recorded Hard Fingernail plucks, Harmonics, Xylophonics, Bass Pedal Buzzes, plus a wide collection of natural Live Glisses in 19 scales and styles by harpist Jennifer Ellis.

You’ll find lots of custom ambiences, pads and unique FX presets created with the harp source to open up limitless sound design possibilities. You also have access to 3 stereo mic positions (sound board, rear ports & room) to freely mix and route, plus an advanced real-time gliss and arpeggiator sequencers, instant pedal presets for easy glissing and arpeggios, precise tone and presence shaping and a full FX rack for total creative freedom. Elysium Harp contains 12,147 samples and over 30GB of wav content.

The library is compressed to 14.7 GB with NI’s lossless .ncw audio format for greater resource efficiency. It works in Kontakt or Kontakt Player version 5.5.2 and later.

Quadral is an inspiration machine.

Randomize your way to your next favorite electronic score using our 16 categories of hand-crafted atmospheric synth pads. Combine quadrants to create layered organs, unique ambiences, or evolving textures using our Ouroboros modulation engine and tempo-synced XY pad. Each sound has been sculpted with care, allowing you to weave layers together into sensational new presets. We’ve also included over 200 factory patches of Arps, Basses, Leads, FX, Pads, and Plucks to get you started on your interstellar journey through space and time.

Quadral is a powerful sampled synthesis engine, ideal for film and game composers who need a fast workflow while maintaining their creative spark.

Dive in to tweak and automate every parameter with total control, or just click Randomize to generate a virtually endless universe of fresh ideas. Good luck… We’re all counting on you.

The central XY Pad can be used in a variety of ways but defaults as volume control between the 4 layers. Each axis can be customized to affect a different parameter and can be used to control filters or a select amount of FX options. Rhythmic motion can also be added to the XY Pad, automatically adjusting each axis in a tempo-syncable way. You can also limit the X and Y range to create new patterns and fluctuations in tone.

Quadral ships with over 200 Factory Presets in 6 categories, each one lovingly crafted.

They can be easily perused using the Preset Browser. You can also save new patches you’ve made using the browser, or share presets with other users. Finally, don’t forget to fire up the FX rack panel and load your synth up with dozens of DSP effects, including convolution reverb with over 100 of our custom real-world and special FX spaces to perfect your sound.

The interface is rounded-out by our modular FX rack panel, with 18 different DSP effect modules that you can assign in any of 10 available slots, in any order that you wish.

You’ll find classic phaser, flanger, delay, distortion, amp and cab simulators, compressors, EQ, rotator and so much more. The Reverb effect includes our favorite convolution reverb impulse responses, including 99 different rooms, halls, chambers and outdoor environments, plus another 40 custom FX impulses to radically transform the sound and open up whole new worlds of musical possibility. We’ve added a great bank of FX rack chain factory presets to get you started!
