Kontakt Library Beautiful Beds released on patchpool

Kontakt 4 - 586,1 MB unzipped - the 36 samples 70 seconds each / not looped (48Khz/24Bit/stereo) are compressed using Kontakt 4's .ncw format - Price: 9,95 €
For this library I chromatically sampled 3 different chordal textures made made with my own patches in Absynth 5, Zebra 2, Alchemy and Reaktor's Metaphysical Function. Each texture is triggered by a keyswitch, texture 1 is a major 7/9 chord spread over 3 ocatves, texture 2 is a minor 7/9 chord and texture 3 is a sus7 chord (so it's neither major or minor as it doesn't use thirds). I sampled each texture for 70 seconds for each chromatic note, the samples are not looped. There is a customized Midi script available and you can determine the sample start point with the Modwheel.
There are 4 patches available, Beautiful Beds All chromatic combines all textures with keyswitches and there is a patch for each tonality in case you don't want to use all samples at once.
Mapping:
The original samples are mapped from C3-B3 and there are transposed samples mapped from C2-B2.
Keyswitches;
Texture 1 (major 7/9) is triggered by keyswitch C1
Texture 1 (minor 7/9) is triggered by keyswitch D1
Texture 1 (sus 7) is triggered by keyswitch E1
Controls:
The Modwheel determines the sample start point, Pitchbend is set to +/- 2 semitones for each texture
Midi Script:
There are 6 Midi Controller knobs
Knob 1 controls the Highpass FIlter Cutoff
Knob 2 controls the Highpass Resonance
Knob 3 controls the Lowpass FIlter Cutoff
Knob 4 controls the Lopwpass Resonance
Knob 5 controls the amount of the Phaser in the Send FX section
Knob 6 controls the speed of he phasing
You can get amazingly rich textures if you combine several textures that fit together tonally (or don't) and/or play them in octaves, You will hear this towards the end of the demo. Happy padding!

Kontakt patch: Car Factory Hits and Impacts released on patchpool

23,7 MB unzipped - Kontakt 4 - 5 samples (48Khz/24Bit/stereo) split up into 46 segments - compressed using Kontakt 4's .ncw format - 1 Impulse Responses (wav) - Price: 4 €
Some years ago I visited a car factory in Dresden to make some field recordings. In this factory big limousines are assembled mainly by robots. So for this patch I used the recordings in which more percussive events take place.
5 long samples (48 Khz/wav/stereo) spilt up into 46 zones/segments - some zones are looped, others use zone envelopes for smooth fades at the end of the sample or filter envelopes. The percussive segments are distributed into 2 Groups: Kicks and Snares using various Kontakt FX like Saturation, Compression, EQing and there is a FX Pan Group that slowly pans the assigned sounds around.
The Modwheel controls the send level of all sounds routed to the Convolution module which carries a gated Reverb made with Aether Reverb.
The Pitchwheel is set to +/- 12 semitones for all sounds.
The demo was produced using a single instance of Kontakt in Logic, no post processing was applied.

SoundPack Soccer Stadium Euphoria released on patchpool

Today I uploaded a new SoundPack to patchpool:

44 Stadium Crowds Soundfiles in pristine quality recorded during an exciting Soccer match. Fans cheering, singing, drumming, clapping, booing and whistling. Crowd reactions to goals scored, dismissals and penalties. This Pack is all you need for sounddesigning sports clips and Soccer matches!
These Sounds were recorded during a very exciting match in Germany in 2006. The home team won 5:0, there were two dismissals and the atmosphere during the match was extremely euphoric and aggressive. The perspective of the recording recorded with two long Sennheiser Shotgun Mics is inside the oval, very close to the home team's fan block.
This SoundPack contains 44 wav files recorded at 44.1 Khz / 16 Bit - 238,4 MB unzipped - Price: 44,95 €
