Nightmare Violin KONTAKT

OHSiE | 23 March 2025 | 5.97 GB

Introducing Nightmare Violin – an essential tool for horror composers. This bone-chilling library features a collection of eerie articulations, including unsettling pizzicato swarms, weaving ponticello sustains, haunting ricochets, and violent tremolos (6x round-robin) that will send shivers down your spine. But that’s not all—Nightmare Violin also comes packed with 40 ominous textural pads and evolving drones, ideal for crafting dark, immersive soundscapes that pull your audience into the depths of fear. We recorded this instrument in a dry studio environment, using a pair of Neumann TLM 102’s and Sound Devices preamps to get maximum detail, clarity, fidelity and clean dynamic range. To take things further, we’ve also designed 20 custom FX presets to deliver an extra jolt of terror to your next film, video game score, soundtrack, or music project. These expertly crafted presets are engineered to instantly amplify the tension, creating nerve-wracking atmospheres that keep listeners on edge. Nightmare Violin is your key to unlocking a world of darkness, bringing haunting sound to life with every note.
