Arcane

Arcane virtual instrument is a free dulcimer sound bank for Kontakt, by Embertone.

[url=http://embertone.com/instruments/arcane.php]ARCANE[/url] is the world’s first possessed sample library. It’s a new concept: the EXPERIENCE INSTRUMENT. Half instrument, half game… Arcane puts you in the middle of a chilling SÉANCE.

You must interact with the evil Kontakt spirits in order to progress through Arcane, and only when you please these demons will you be granted access to the 4 worlds within:

DESOLATION: an abandoned dungeon.

OFFERING: a limited demo of our FRIEDLANDER VIOLIN.

SPECTER: a mysterious and confusing vocal library.

INFERNO: swirling through space in the midst of a black hole.

Here is a sample library with a mind of its own, one with the potential to make you jump out of your seat.

Arcane is a rare, free library for Kontakt Player… it’s a limited release and Embertone’s way of saying THANK YOU to its supportive users-

Afterlife Free

Afterlife Free virtual instrument is a free sound bank for Kontakt, by ForceSampling.

Afterlife Free is is the free version of the Kontakt library Afterlife, featuring 1.06 GB of sample content and 100 patches hand-picked from its big brother.

The library content covers a wide scope of different genres (cinematic, ambient, dnb etc.), but its goal is not to provide bread and butter sounds for modern genres, instead the focus is to bring unusual and unexpected sounds to give extra spice to your compositions. Distorted synth brass from dystopian lands, surrealistic drones from your weirdest nightmares, ethereal pads full of enlightenment and morphed acoustics that sound both natural and otherworldly, all in the same library.

Tweak the sounds fast and easy using the simple interface that provides a filter, amp envelope, 4 band eq, arpeggiator and 4 custom fx buttons. These buttons offer easy tweaking of all patches, just with a one or two clicks.

80s EP FM Free

80s EP FM Free virtual instrument is a free keyboard sound bank for Kontakt, by Tangent Edge Instruments.

The 80s EPs are virtual versions of 4 iconic 80s EP sounds from the Yamaha DX7 Mark II, each counting two times 1144 24-bit/48kHz samples for the Pro versions. 88 keys sampled in 12 velocity layers. The 140 versions have 140 samples. The 80s EP FM 140 is Free!
There are three more of them: 80s EP Bright, Classic, and Warm.

No software emulation beats the expressiveness and bite of the real thing. I played around two thousand EP presets, customized 32 of my favourites on my TX802/DX7II and then sampled 4 like all the virtual Wurlitzers and Rhodes out there: extremely detailed and programmed to behave exactly like the original.

“FM” is based on the popular FM Roads preset.

In the demo below you can hear the same MIDI file rendered by by TX802 module, the Pro versions Pure and Coloured, the 140 version and finally FM8 using the same preset.
Check out the demo of the Classic Pro too so you can hear what the instrument is capable of, it has the same engine.

Requires the full version of Kontakt 3.5 or higher. The 80s EPs will only work for 30 minutes in the free Kontakt Player.
