The Best Of Bolder double CD ROM was released for Gigastudio in April of 2002. It consisted of choice Material from previous Bolder libraries. This volume is a continuation of converting that library into natively programmed instruments for NI Kontakt and the Apple EXS 24. Other volumes that have already been converted
A most unusual bank of crystal glass samples; hit or played in a variety of manners and intensities. 11 different crystal glasses were recorded for this collection. Within each waveform are numerous articulations of that particular crystal. Each crystal was struck using a variety of items ranging from fingers to kitchen utensils. There are also sustained voices, created by the classic technique of running a wet finger around the rim of the crystal.
A collection of instruments spanning from the hurdy gurdy of the medieval period to fortepiano of the early classical period. See the below specifications for the full list.

What’s Kontakt 8 all about, you ask? Well, step right this way! NI expert Eli Krantzberg will provide comprehensive answers to that question in this extensive video tutorial series! Whether you’re just starting out or want to learn about the new instruments, new features, or simply workflow improvements and enhancements, it’s all here! After watching this Kontakt 8 video course, you can rest assured knowing you’ll be taking full advantage of everything Kontakt 8 has to offer! These Kontkt 8 videos are designed for new users. To begin, Eli provides an overview of the new default interface view of Kontakt 8, including the new tools and other main elements. He also shows you how you can use the new Side Pane feature to search, browse, load/save presets, and more, which is incredibly convenient. Eli then demonstrates the new integrated functionality of the browser, which unifies your entire Kontakt library into one searchable location. Next, you’ll explore the new Chords tools, which allow you to play chords on a Kontakt instrument by pressing a single key, and see how Eli uses them to generate and modify chords behind an acappella vocal. Then see the new Phases tool in action, which, similarly to the Chords tool, allows the triggering of phases with a single key. Eli continues by demonstrating how to combine both tools to create parts and generate new ideas.
Think wood and then more wood and then some more wood on top of that. The theme and purpose of this library is pretty simple. We wanted to capture as much sharp, bright, tonal wooden impact percussion as our hearts could desire. We captured several bamboo poles, bamboo logs (literally), a whole pile of claves, woodblocks, clappers, box drum, and other assorted wooden implements that epitomize the word “thwack.” These elements are ideal auxiliary percussion for orchestral composition and epic film/tv/game soundtrack scoring. They also are vital elements in Latin music and hip hop, as well as very useful percussion building-blocks and raw source material for experimental music and IDM.
