AKOUSTIK PIANO
Untitled Document

New: MP3 sound examples...


Grand Slam
AKOUSTIK PIANO fuses the sampled sound, expressiveness and playability of three of the most reputable grand pianos – the Steinway D™, Bechstein D 280™ and Boesendorfer 290 Imperial™ – as well as the charismatic Steingraeber 130™ vintage upright piano into one application. AKOUSTIK PIANO covers the entire range of piano sounds and styles, transfusing the sonic characteristics and subtle tonal nuances of all four into your computer – the perfect complement for studios, rehearsal rooms, schools, stages and clubs.


Three first class grands and one upright in a single, compact software instrument

Under The Lid
AKOUSTIK PIANO is the new benchmark in sound quality, capturing the full body and feel of the originals with unprecedented authenticity. The latest recording technology as well as a specially developed microphone setup was used for all 4 pianos. The result is a uniquely warm, transparent and flexible sound that delivers the same distinctive character of each individual piano in exacting detail and can still be adjusted to meet specific needs.


Intelligent Ivory
AKOUSTIK PIANO plays and responds exactly as real pianos do. The keys were sampled at varying velocities and great care was taken to capture the entire sustain and release phases. The brand new Layer Morphing Technology generates a seamless dynamic gradient. The characteristic resonances caused by use of the pedals can be adjusted as can the subtle mechanical noises of the pedals and keys themselves. From perfect pianissimo to forceful fortissimo, this instrument delivers the same breadth and depth of tone as the originals.


Enchanting Ebony
AKOUSTIK PIANO has a first-class integrated convolution module, allowing highly authentic spatial characteristics to be added to the sound. Place the piano in a studio, jazz club, concert hall and a cathedral or use the dry signal as it is. The acoustic parameters of these spaces, such as the size, can also be manipulated. From the close mic setup of a jazz combo to the more ambient nature of classic solo performance, AKOUSTIK PIANO covers the whole spectrum.

AKOUSTIK PIANO is now available worldwide at authorized dealers and in our Online Shop...

B4 II

Authentic Software
The B4 software organ broke new ground when it was released in 2000 and was an instant success. It reproduces the sound of the legendary B3 and its rotary speaker cabinet with unmatched accuracy. Its expressiveness and immediate playability continues to amaze even the most experienced organ players. The B4 II raises the bar considerably, generating a much wider sonic range and a far richer, even more authentic sound.


Intuitive Interface



Through The Tube
The latest version of this award-winning virtual organ sees the addition of many extra components. A tube amplifier and a selection of classic speaker cabinets offer you greater freedom of expression. Spring and studio reverb modules lend the sound more depth and atmosphere. From silky soft to relentlessly rockin', the sound is stunningly precise and more versatile than ever before.


Attention To Detail
From the drawbars, the vibrato and chorus to the tube distortion and rotary speakers, the B4 II delivers the sound of the original in incredible detail. The cross-talk between the tonewheels is adjustable and 11 additional tonewheel sets are also included: 'Cosmetically age' the B4 II or transform it into a Farfisa, a Vox Continental or an Indian Harmonium.


A Joy To Play
The B4 II is instantly playable. Its convenient Preset Manager coupled with a large selection of presets offer a wide range of styles. The new bass pedal legato and string bass features make using the foot pedals easy: a walking bass has never been simpler. The B4 II is a rounded, enthralling and easy-to-use software organ that instantly delights– start playing and you won't stop.

Three cult organs for the B4


Let The Tonewheel Turn

The included tonewheel sets vastly expand the B4 II's sonic potential. Adjust the age of your B4 II: From factory-fresh to old and worn after years on stage - the choice is yours. Or turn the B4 II into a completely different organ altogether: the Farfisa, Vox Continental and Indian Harmonium are all included.

"The conclcusion on Studio Drums is short and clear: d...... good. The samples are crisp and clear, sound very best, and are usable in a wide range of digital studio projects. I know it looks suspicious when in any online review the highest possible rating is given, but I give Studio Drums a 10. It is just that good. Just as plain simple as that."
Audiomac.net, NL, 05/2002. Find the Online Review here...

"The recordings are impeccable. Even uneffected kits sound superb an their own, while the General MIDI standard of each patch makes it simple to slip any of the full kits into your track. Left- and right-handed hits are often available - making for some extremely realistic fills and rolls - and the multi-layering makes each kit remarkably expressive." ... "This collection really is a beauty". Ranking: Ten points out of ten.
Computer Music, UK, 06/2002

"Battery Studio Drums is a sparkling collection of ultra realistic high quality drum sounds, mapped to take advantage of Battery's multiple velocity layers. The result is a high level of expressiveness not often found in traditional sample libraries." ... "This collection emphasizes the realism of drum kits played in a studio environment, and are particularly well suited to Pop, Rock and Jazz, however funk, soul, blues, grunge, hip hop and big beat are also represented by their own kits.

offers a huge selection of inspiring sounds. From earth-shuddering bass samples and snares that cut straight through the mix to effects that instantly capture the imagination, this collection encompasses an extremely wide range of electronic styles. Whether House or Hiphop, IDM or UKG, Techno or Trance, R'n'B or D'n'B, Old School or Nu Skool – SYNTHETIC DRUMS 2 has its finger on the pulse.
Sample Twisting
The over 2400 samples have all been produced exclusively for Synthetic Drums 2. A huge arsenal of equipment was used to create the sounds. The samples themselves were subjected to a lengthy production process involving numerous effects, filters, ring modulators, compressors, frequency shifters, granular samplers and so on. All of the producers were given complete artistic freedom, resulting in an extremely varied and individual set of kits. Every kit also has a short demo sound-clip that has been produced exclusively with the samples from that kit. A MIDI file is also included, offering an insight into how the clip was arranged.


BATTERY 2 and KONTAKT
The 36 drum kits have all been optimized for use with BATTERY 2 and KONTAKT, making heavy use of the varied sound processing features such as filters, loops, velocity, effects and modulation. The results are extremely diverse and distinctive sounds that can be quickly trimmed to individual needs in BATTERY 2 and KONTAKT. All the samples are included in 24-bit / 44.1 KHz WAV format. To give an overview of what is available, SYNTHETIC DRUMS 2 also contains special kits that group all the bass drums, all the snares, all the toms and so on into individual kits.

KONTAKT EXPERIENCE

Sonic Worlds


KONTAKT Experience is the perfect complement to KONTAKT 2. This essential expansion pack is far more than just an arbitrary collection of samples. Using the new features of KONTAKT 2, like scripting, convolution, surround, its new filters as well as beat-, tone- and time-machine, KONTAKT Experience reveals a world of creativity that fully exploits the potential within this immensely powerful sampler. This exquisite sample library reproduces the characteristics of some of the most popular contemporary hardware synthesizers and offers a wide range of new scripts, loops, sounds and drum kits.


Expertly Crafted


KONTAKT Experience includes a total of 128 unique instruments divided into ten categories. All instruments have been expertly crafted by renowned artists and professional sound designers covering a wide range of musical styles. The instruments are structured so that they are all highly intuitive and easy to use. New KONTAKT scripts such as the loop designer and the drum computer afford incredible flexibility and inject new life into standard instruments. Specialized vocal sounds, animated drum kits, arpeggiated and modern lead synths as well as intricate construction kits form an inspirational collection of new sounds.


Ten Categories


01 - Performances
Offers musical building blocks that lend themselves particularly well to laying a foundation for a song. Full sets of loops anddrum patterns combined with a melodic or harmonic instrument are included.

02 - Motion & Pads
A huge selection of slow ambient pads, based on largely synthetic samples. Heavy use has been made of filtering, modulation and other effects, resulting in especially lively and dynamic sounds.

03 - Vocalized
As the name suggest, the “Vocalized” category is dedicated to all things vocal. Such features as the Time and Tone machines come into their own here and produce some unique results.

04 - Harmonized
This “Harmonized” group of sounds contains instruments, such as harmonized pianos, that make use of scripts such as “easy chord generator” or “constrain to scale”. Typical house stabs as well as strummed chords are also included.

05 - Guitarized
Again, scripts come into play in the “Guitarized” category, for example simulating guitar strings being strummed. The convolution module is also used to layer the impulse responses from specific cabinets over the sound.

06 - Exotic
The Exotic section is an amazing collection of weird and wonderful sounds: strange loops, special effects and a whole lot more.

07 - Melodic Loops
The Loops and Rhythm section includes, amongst others, a Loop designer script to mangle a sliced loop and features samples that are processed using KONTAKT 2's Beat and Time machine features.

08 - Lead & Bass Synths
As the name implies, synthesizer-based lead sounds are on offer here. There is also the option of using the included “solo mode” and “legato” scripts to produce some interesting results.

09 - Arpeggiated
As well as several slightly simpler arpeggiators there are also some fairly intricate constructions that use more than one voice per key or which are harmonized in a special way. Again, some interesting and distinctive results are guaranteed with these instruments.

10 - Drumkits & Drumloops
The included drum computer script has been used to program these drum kits, allowing tempo and they like to be altered radically without suffering a loss in quality. Combining these 'pattern instruments' with some chords and the “Poly Step” script will also generate fairly unusual rhythms.

PRO-53
Untitled Document

he PRO-53 carries on the tradition from the legendary days of vintage cult synthesizers. This virtual instrument, fashioned after the Sequential Circuits™ Prophet™-5, provides the sonic properties of the unique originals while meeting the practical requirements of the present day.

Inspired by the immortal sound of the synthesizer giants of the eighties, Native Instruments created the PRO-53 to cast in software those qualities that have been such a major influence on popular music in the past twenty years: brilliance, power, warmth and beauty. Through Native Instruments' creative development philosophy, these timeless aesthetics have now reached the next step in their evolution. The result is the manifest re-definition of an original that was regarded as unrivalled until now.

PRO-53 – The New Version
With the PRO-53, the third generation of the virtual analog classic is now available. The synthesizer emulation has been vastly improved by a new oscillator technology that offers an even warmer and more brilliant sound. In addition the sonic possibilities have been expanded even further with new features like a high-pass filter mode and an invertible filter envelope. The control surface was also reworked and now shines in a whole new light.
Audio Demo: The new sound of PRO-53 - MP3
(1:35/1.5 MB/128 kbps - demo made by Thomas Fiedler with PRO-53, KONTAKT and Synthetic Drums. No additional effects were used.)


Details on the new functions…


Using Native Instruments' highly advanced NSP-Technology (Native Signal Processing) it is possible to generate a software synthesizer that rivals its legendary hardware predecessors. The Native Instruments PRO-53 sets new standards without denying its origins.
What's new: no fixed limit to the number of voices, many more savable preset slots, velocity sensitivity, MIDI automation of all available parameters, an additional effects section, a high-pass filter mode, invertible filter envelope, audio input, LFO-envelope retrigger, and the option to run several PRO-53s in parallel.


Sounds for any eventuality
The PRO-53 is able to import Prophet-5™ SysEx sound data, which means it can read and accurately reproduce all the existing sound libraries made for the original. The subtle deviations from perfect behaviour, which are typical of analog circuits and crucial to the sound, can now be fine-tuned.

The huge sound library gives the PRO-53 plenty of material for all kinds of musical styles: 512 selected classic and modern analog sounds cover any possibility.
64 of these sounds have already been programmed for the previous version by synthesizer legend John Bowen, one of the creators of the Prophet™-5 synthesizer. In addition, PRO-53 comes with 64 new sound presets, which were specially designed to take advantage of PRO-53's new features.

512 preset memory slots are available where you can store your own sound creations. The PRO-53 displays a name for each of the presets, unlike the original which only displayed the preset number.


Effects
A built-in effects unit adds multi-echo and ultra-fat chorus and flanging effects. This makes the sound of the PRO-53 'complete' for both live performance and studio production. The included preset sounds make extensive use of the effects. The PRO-53 also has an audio input for processing external audio signals through its filters and effects.


Integration
The Native Instruments PRO-53 integrates perfectly into any computer based virtual studio by supporting the interfaces VST®, Audio Units™, DXi™ and RTAS™. It can be used as a sequencer plug-in or as a stand-alone synthesizer. It is possible to run several PRO-53 plug-in instances in parallel.



Top Features

  • Authenthic emulation of the legendary Prophet-5™ analog synthesizer
  • 576 selected classic and modern analog sounds included
  • 2 oscillators per voice, choice of pulse, triangle and saw-tooth waveforms
  • Oscillator detune and synchronization
