Atlas Flutes

World Winds für Kontakt Player

Atlas Flutes ist eine faszinierende Sammlung von World Woodwinds, die sich auf kurze, fast perkussive und texturale Artikulationen konzentriert. Sie wurde in Zusammenarbeit mit dem deutschen Filmkomponisten Christoph Zirngibl entwickelt, der die Library ursprünglich für seine Filmmusik zu dem äußerst erfolgreichen Animationsfilm Mia and Me: Der Held von Centopia konzipiert hat.

Mit sechs Instrumenten, nie zuvor gesampelten Artikulationen und einem speziellen Performance-Modus ermöglicht dieses ansprechende Instrument für den kostenlosen Kontakt Player die Einbindung von Holzbläsern auf neue und interessante Weise. Es ist inspiriert von der Arbeit des berühmten Filmkomponisten James Horner.

Alto, bass, Kaval, West African, Quenacho, and Pan Pipes are among the instruments in Atlas Flutes that have been painstakingly recorded, programmed, and performed in the manners typical of film, video game, and other media soundtracks.

Each Instrument can play:

• Marcato
• Staccato
• Staccatissimo
• Swells in two or three different durations
• Sforzando in three different durations
• Jet Tones (Bass and Alto Flutes only)
• Flutters (Kaval, Bass Flute, Alto Flute and West African Flute only)

Whilst this toolbox is perfect for achieving authentic, atmospheric and enchanting ethnic soundtracks, they also recorded incredible Kaval and Bass Flute textures that vary from purely acoustic improvisations to designed, hybrid soundscapes. Use the X-Y pad to morph between them and create your own distinctive sounds ranging from disturbing, dark and haunting to light, airy and uplifting.

Performance Mode

Performance mode is a unique feature of Atlas Flutes which will speed up your workflow immensely.

Activate it to control all the selected instrument’s short articulations from one single keyboard mapping!

At the press of a button the articulations are automatically remapped: use the left part of the keyboard to define the pitch to be played and the right side to trigger notes: marcato, staccato and staccatissimo on the white keys, swells and sforzandos on the black.

There’s more: the swells in performance mode are automatically tempo synced to your host... landing on the beat and creating tight ostinatos is quick and easy!

Atlas Flutes: World Winds Toolbox is available for Kontakt Player 6.7.1+ (no full version of Kontakt is required).
