Tone2 Nemesis v1.6.0 [WINDOWS]

By | February 9, 2020

Tone2 Nemesis v1.6.0-R2R

Tone2 Nemesis v1.6.0

Nemesis can do all classic digital synthesis methods as well as a new approach called ‘NeoFM’. NeoFM is more powerful and more easy to program than traditional FM. It offers superior sound quality. A signature-sound is generated by its engine, which is capable of providing warm, silky and creamy tones.

Overview:

  • Can do all important digital synthesis methods + NeoFM
  • NeoFM is a new FM synthesis type and exclusively available in Nemesis
  • Can create unique sounds that are not possible with other synths
  • NeoFM offers superior sound quality and is more intuitive than traditional FM
  • Unique signature-sound: Warm, silky and creamy tones
  • NeoFM offers a much larger sonic range and has no weaknesses
  • Contains 1065 inspiring patches from professional designers
  • High-End sound quality with low demands on your CPU
  • User-friendly interface
  • Extremely versatile
  • Many high-end quality effects
  • Wave import and re-synthesis for unlimited sonic possibilities
  • Additive spectrum editor
  • True 4x stereo unison
  • Expandability
  • Trancegate
  • Powerful, easy-to-use arpeggiator

Sound

Nemesis features pristine tonal quality and offers sonic possibilities far beyond the scope of conventional FM synthesizers. A uniquely silky signature sound is generated by its engine. The synthesizer is capable of providing warm, smooth, and creamy tones as well as the classic digital sounds FM synthesis is well-known for.
Nemesis comes with a huge and inspiring sound library, built by professional sound designers.

The future of FM Synthesis

Nemesis takes FM synthesis onto its next evolutionary step: NeoFM synthesis. Conventional FM synths use phase modulation (PM) instead of genuine FM synthesis. Such synths are branded as ‘FM’ for marketing purposes. The traditional PM approach is limited and results in a bell-like or an unpleasant metallic sound. ‘Real analog FM’ suffers from drift, resulting in a disharmonious sound, which is not musically useful. The innovative neoFM approach combines the advantages of both synthesis types, but without adopting their weaknesses. It is now easier than ever to get great sounding results.
Beside of NeoFM, Nemesis features an impressive selection of 22 digital synthesis types. You can import a sample and re-synthesize a waveform or use the additive spectrum editor to manipulate the partials. With several play modes such as polyphonic, mono & legato, true 4x stereo unison and an unlimited number of waveforms. The sky is truly the limit.

Effects

44 different quality effects are available, which can be routed flexibly. The innovative ‘Ducking Mode’ makes your mix sound more transparent and fat. Nemesis offers smart micro-tuning which makes chords sound more fat and more transparent at the same time. It also offers optional punch and psycho-acoustic features to add a little kick to your sound. Nemesis offers a dedicated (Trance-)Gate section. The powerful Gate provides advanced features like Contour, Fading, Swing, Stereo and Shuffle.

Arpeggiator

The arpeggiator in Nemesis is inspiring, powerful and easy to use. Just select your notes inside the note sequencer as you normally would and choose the play direction. The arpeggiator also supports optional advanced features such as auto-chords, polyphonic playback, glides, swing or matrix integration.

Modulation

By using drag & drop or the matrix, Nemesis allows you to connect dozens of modulation sources to sound parameters. Modulate almost any parameter up into the audio-rate speed, from internal modulation sources like the LFOs, to a wide variety of MIDI messages. We’ve also included midi-learn, so assigning CC’s is as simple as a right-click.

Orange Tree Evolution Jumbo 12 KONTAKT

By | February 9, 2020

Orange Tree Evolution Jumbo 12 KONTAKT

Orange Tree Evolution Jumbo 12 KONTAKT
5.09 Gb

We are pleased to present Evolution Jumbo 12, the long awaited 12-string acoustic addition to our Evolution guitar series, recorded from a Taylor 355. This guitar sports a silky high end, yet an ample amount of body in the lows and mids–undoubtedly the result of it being a larger sized guitar. Mixed prominently, Evolution Jumbo 12 can cut through the mix with its crisp, bright tone. Played at a feathery-soft dynamic, it adds an exquisite shimmer to your arrangement.

We developed the library in collaboration with Rosewood Recording Company, one of Utah’s most venerable recording studios. Guy Randle, the owner and recording engineer at Rosewood Recording Company, incorporated analog audio equipment to skillfully sculpt and emphasize the rich tonal qualities of the guitar. Evolution Jumbo 12 includes both the as-recorded signal as well as an enhanced signal. Although we feel that the latter option best represents our vision for the sound of the acoustic guitar, the unprocessed signal is also at your disposal for additional flexibility.

For the sampling session, Guy Randle worked with Ryan Tilby, a versatile multi-instrumentalist who has performed at countless music festivals and toured Europe multiple times. His compositions have been featured on the Discovery Channel, Outdoor Photo Adventures, and other prominent TV shows. Ryan Tilby also offers remote recording services for clients around the world in need of guitar, banjo, bass, mandolin, and ukulele tracks.

Evolution Jumbo 12 is outfitted with our Evolution guitar engine which provides you with a wealth of appointments: an innovative strumming pattern editor, automatic chord detection, and a robust effects engine. The library includes many factory presets for ready-to-use classic and modern 12-string acoustic guitar tones that fit right into the mix.

Key Features:

– Built-in effects engine for instantly-usable 12-string acoustic guitar tones.

– Adjustable pick position using our proprietary physical modeling technology.

– Powerful mapping system that lets you set how you want to trigger articulations, using conditions such as velocity ranges, MIDI CCs, latching and non-latching keyswitches, and more.

– Multitracking up to quadruple tracking.

Sampling specifications:

– 11.9 GB (compressed to 4.76 GB using the lossless NCW audio format) of 24-bit samples.

– Articulations such as sustains, palm mutes, mutes, natural harmonics, plus special effects like string slaps, guitar body hits, and more.

– MIDI articulations for instant octaves, grace notes, buzz trills, whole-step slides, whole-step hammer-ons, and slides (velocity-based and tempo-synced).

– Legato samples for slides, hammer-ons, and pull-offs.

– The articulations have 3 dynamics, 2 pick directions (when applicable), and 2x round-robin.

Requirements

Kontakt 5.7.0 and higher.

Talos Volume Two: Low Brass KONTAKT

Talos Volume Two: Low Brass KONTAKT

Talos Volume Two: Low Brass KONTAKT

TALOS VOLUME TWO: LOW BRASS (EPIC & CINEMATIC BRASS ENSEMBLES FOR KONTAKT)

Recorded on the same stage as our flagship libraries Jaeger and Cerberus, the TALOS series is the next addition to our ever-expanding range of orchestral sample libraries. All TALOS libraries are about big ensemble sizes that can go from soft and subtle to earth-shatteringly epic.

One of the main goals and challenges for the series was to create libraries that can go the full sonic range in a larger than life ensemble size but still retain all of their realism. We’ve ensured that the TALOS libraries not only blend perfectly with our other libraries (Jaeger, Cerberus, etc.) but truly sit well in a mix and enhance your writing experience.

For Volume Two, we recorded a thunderous sounding 12 player low brass ensemble (4x Tubas, 4x Cimbassi, 4x Bass Trombones). The wide range of articulations gives you immense control over this low-end monster and allows you to unleash fury on your music.

  • Sustained (3 DYN, 1 RR)
  • Sustained Flutter Tongue (3 DYN, 1 RR)

Short articulations:

  • Marcato Long (3 DYN, 5 RR)
  • Marcato Short (3 DYN, 5 RR)
  • Staccato (3 DYN, 5 RR)
  • Staccatissimo (3 DYN, 5 RR)
  • Rip (1 DYN, 2 RR)
  • Bend (1 DYN, 2 RR)
  • Crescendo Long (1 DYN, 2 RR)
  • Crescendo Short (1 DYN, 2 RR)
  • Crescendo Long Flutter Tongue (1 DYN, 2 RR)
  • Crescendo Short Flutter Tongue (1 DYN, 2 RR)

ADDITIONAL CONTENT

The traditional orchestral sections in Talos – Low Brass are complemented by an extensive and incredibly flexible sound design section. All of the sound design comes from the original orchestral recordings and it is really easy to create your own, customized sounds in very few steps.

Contents

  • Bends
  • Drones
  • Atonal Soundscapes
  • Tonal Textures
  • SFX

This time, all the tonal elements of the sound design library have been designed and rendered in multiple pitches, spanning a full octave, allowing for much more natural transposition.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This library requires the Full Version of Kontakt (the patches will not run in the free Kontakt Player)

KEY FEATURES

12 player low brass ensemble: 4x Tubas, 4x Cimbassi, 4x Bass Trombones
4.83 GB installed
4 mic positions: Spot, Decca, Wide, Far PLUS 1 mix: Full Mix

TCHNO V1 WAV FXP ALP ADV

789TEN TCHNOv1 WAV FXP ALP ADV

TCHNO V1 WAV FXP ALP ADV

TCHNO V1

In this offering, we have put together a turn key ableton project file for you! TCHNO V1 has fully editable synth layers using Operator, Sylenth and Serum. The sounds are designed to give a track texture, colour and depth. The groove is built up with select loops and one shots; the momentum of the track is driving and deliberate. The track is arranged to build up colours and textures only to be assertively pulled away into minimal darkness.

This project file is extremely useful to get your ideas going quickly. There is still room left in the mix to allow you that flexibility in your creative process; it was a deliberate choice to keep the project file simple yet developed enough to have a vision designed to inspire. Over mixing/mastering and adding too many layers would pigeonhole the concept too much and defeat the purpose of having template that would serve the needs of a track writing jumpstart!

We beta tested different versions of the mix found this opened the most doors creatively for it’s users. For your convenience, we have also included the samples and presets from the project into separate additional folders with your download for use in different projects and different DAW software suites!

The project only uses Ableton built-in effects. It is especially inspiring to see how simple a signal processing chain can be when the sound design and sample selection is on point. Sweetening the right frequencies is important when dialling in the energy of a track. When you open up the project, you will be able to compare before and after tests on each step of the processing phase.

Some of the sounds in the mix have been recorded and/or run through special processing and rendered as audio files; feel free to manipulate and bend them using Ableton’s incredible audio editing capabilities.

TCHNO V1 INCLUDES:

– ABLETON PROJECT FILE
– ABLETON FX ONLY
– SYLENTH & SERUM PRESETS
– TECHNO SAMPLES

The pads are presented in three-channel complex, menu, and single channel formats to support multiple workflows. Complex presets have been expanded with up to six snapshots, accentuating the uniqueness of each individual sound. GRAVITY provides flexible design features flat-out unparalleled by any other virtual instrument on the market today.

Risers

For the first time in a Heavyocity product, we are proud to include fully customizable Risers. Combine evocative string sections (ORGANIC) with ripping synth (SYNTH) and dramatic effects layers (FX) to quickly craft unique Risers on the fly. Further manipulate the Risers using the MOTION tab; even change the duration of the Riser, syncing to beats or time, for total control over ascending tension and suspense. Use the DESIGNER to stack up to three layers to 12 user-customizable slots for quick and easy playback. Master the creation of hair-raising sound design elements with Heavyocity’s first-ever customizable Riser experience.

Hits & Stings

Add weight to your dramatic moments with GRAVITY’s Hits & Stings. Combine up to four of the 192 distinct elements to create virtually limitless combinations of unique Hits. Turn “Whoosh” on or off and adjust length seamlessly. Not enough customization for you? Introduce complex glitch and stutter effects with the motion sequencer and Trigger FX. The fourth center of GRAVITY is, arguably, the most unique – Stings. Four hundred individual Stings cover a vast range, from reverse hits and whooshes, to disturbing metals and aggressive tonal sweeps. When it comes to punctuated textures and impacts, GRAVITY covers it all.
