It includes 5 chromatic instrument sets, with a variety of distinctive articulations. The library also includes our signature sound-designed ambiences, custom presets, and intuitive user interface with all the bells and whistles to open up endless creative possibilities! Step right up and get your tickets for Noah Kelly’s Sonic Circus! ► WATCH NOW Contents This library includes a Bottlephone, Hornaphone, Tuned Cowbell ensemble, Pipe Machine, and a Children's Glockenspiel. We’ve also crafted 20 unique sound-designed elements to compliment our Sonic Circus, ranging from warm and textured leads to undulating and evolving ethereal pads, as well as plenty of classic synthesized waveforms to add even more body, harmony and flavor to your sound. To cap it all off, we’ve also included a set of 20 creative sound-designed factory presets to take the sound farther and offer instant inspiration, so you can dive right in. Sonic Circus is built for the full unlocked version of Kontakt 6.6 and later, as well as the free Decent Sampler engine. We’ve also included all of the basic presets for the open-source SFZ format, which is compatible with several different sampler and synth platforms available for Mac, PC and Linux. The Kontakt interface includes a suite of automation-ready sound-shaping controls to give you total creative flexibility. You have control over swell, attack, release, offset, vibrato, filter, pitch (coarse & fine), articulation switching, cross-fading and layering, and so much more. 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 27 different DSP effect modules that you can assign in any of 8 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! Multi-Format This library is designed for the full retail version of Native Instruments Kontakt 6.6 or later.
