Free Sound Banks & Virtual Instruments for Kontakt

Gobbler

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

Gobbler is a strange & silly virtual instrument. The sound is like nothing you’ve ever heard, and possibly nothing you’d ever want to hear: 5 adults gobbling into a microphone. The more you play, the faster Gobbles the turkey will run.

This instrument is free, however, donations will benefit an amazing organization: The Global Fund For Children. This nonprofit collective is one of the most reputable and effective in the world… providing life-giving support for the most vulnerable people in the world: KIDS.

So consider donating to a worthy cause and receive an instrument that is incredibly fun to play.

Fujiya MC-3A

Fujiya MC-3A virtual instrument is a free toy sound bank for Kontakt, by StrayWorx.

Fujiya MC-3A aka. “Look, what I found in Granny’s basement!

The Fujiya MC-3A is a

~~legendary~~
synthesizer from the end of the good old 80’s. It’s intended to be the rival of the

~~awesome~~
Casio toy-synths.

~~We can say, they succeed.~~

StrayWorx is proud to present the

~~faithful~~
recreation of this

~~fabulous~~
gem, entirely made with NI Kontakt. Originally, this sound library meant to be an entry for KVRaudio DC2012 competition but due to various reasons, there wasn’t enough time to finish it until deadline.

It is still not complete but we’d like to release it to the public as a Christmas gift. Download and enjoy this

~~weltmeister~~
sound library and have fun with it.

Details:

Deep sampled sounds, signal sent through TLA tube preamp (actually, this is true).

~~1:1 copy of original hardware~~

~~precise~~
positioned buttons.

A lot of buttons to play with – but most of them has no function, they are nice anyway.

~~Rhythm section with built-in accompaniment~~
.

~~All the function of the synth is programmed and available to use~~

Full Kontakt 4.2.2 (or newer) required.

130MB (zipped) using Kontakt lossless compression.

Completely free to download and use.

Tips & tricks:

Please keep in mind that the first screen (Main Panel) is just a nice graphic, there are no clickable buttons and sliders.

Notice the available screens, Volume control, Orchestra, Rhythm and DrumPads.

Don’t forget to turn ON the synth first (Volume Control section).

Keep in mind that the synth won’t remember any settings on Power OFF or reload (works as the original hardware).

Most of the functions are implemented, all 12 Orchestra sounds are available.

Transpose function (-5 note, works as the original hardware) is available with Reset function.

Auto-bass is available on the lower part of the keyboard.

DrumPads are fully implemented and fun to play with.

Sustain function works like it should.

Vibrato function is not available.
