More than just a sampler, NI Kontakt includes over 43 GB of meticulously recorded samples and lots of features hidden under the hood. In this course, you learn to bring life into your music with this cutting-edge programmable sampling environment. After giving an overview of the different uses of Kontakt, Matt explains how to best manage its sample libraries and presets. You learn about snapshots, third-party instruments, NKI files and you discover what an unwrapped library is. Matt explores the often overlooked Factory Library, the Play Series instruments and Kontakt’s Retro Machines Mk 2. And then you dive deeper and learn mode advanced Kontakt concepts: instrument multis, layering, creating splits, keyswitches, sampling your own sounds, Auto Mapping, adding effects, and a lot more…
String Theory is a series of Kontakt instruments based on guitar samples.
The Keyless Piano Body is a Kontakt Patch library that features an abandoned upright piano without keyboard. It combines the sounds of 3 extensive recording sessions that took place for the Rolfing series which was originally available as Live Pack only. For session 1 and 2 the body was brought to a studio and literally laid back so that various things like plastic balls, felt balls, glasses and much more could be thrown in to excite the strings. At the end of both sessions tons of samples were ready to edit. They now form 13 Kontakt instruments that encompass several precisely tuned pianos plus many prepared piano sets. Session 3 was kind of a field recording gig as the piano remains were meanwhile moved to a rural garden area. The nightly recordings were done 6-channel so that several sample sets from 2 acoustic mics and 4 contact pick ups could be created. Again, the Kontakt instruments from this session feature the sounds of a rotten piano that is lovely and impressive at the same time. In a second pass the piano strings were treated with a stell jazz brush to bring up 3 multi-channel sets with prepared piano-like sounds.
We are intensely proud to offer one of the most exquisite and beautifully recorded collections of samples ever created: ‘Deepest India’ is a 3-Disc set of original Vocals, Instruments and Orchestras/Ensembles recorded on location in India specially for ZG during 1996-7. The library explores every area of human emotion from elation to despair – from hauntingly beautiful vocals, through joyous ensembles to authentic Indian instrumental phrases.
The Tiny Binaural Harpsichord³ remains beautifully faithful to its rare origins, a spinet harpsichord made by influential instrument maker and musician, Arnold Dolmetsch (1849-1940). But, as always with a Sound Dust instrument, the TBH³ offers much more than impressively realised acoustics and editing – it offers two completely unique and incredibly versatile ‘must have’ instruments for the modern player, sound designer or composer. Source samples were painstakingly recorded using OKM Binaural microphones, enabling the capture of omnidirectional stereo sound as experienced by the ear. The result is transparency and authenticity by the bucket load. The TBH³ delivers the resonant joy of a small period harpsichord, its ancient soundboard alive to the ring and thrum of quill plucked brass strings and the soft organic clunk of a worn wooden mechanism.
Regal Rhythm is a very simple drum box with a typical vintage analogue sound. The six on-board preset rhythms cover the kind of staples you’d expect from more of a home-orientated (rather than studio grade) piece of kit, and there’s a slightly fuzzy, soft-edged tone to the whole thing that can work very nicely for chillout, downtempo tracks. It also comes in a neat royal red colour scheme that should cheer up anyone’s morning – and check out that real wood veneer ???? The sounds are limited but solid: kick drum, plus two flavours of snare, as well as the combinable presets (which of course tempo-sync to your host DAW). Saturation, compression and bit-crusher controls let you have a bit of extra fun with the tone.
