Many people assume that Sonokinetic’s signature sound is grand and statuesque, as we fill our recording space with many talented players and layer phrases together in our bespoke Kontakt engines. However, sometimes it’s great to dial things down for a more personal feel, and that’s just what we’ve done with Indie. The style of these intimate ensemble phrases take their lead from modern TV drama, boutique film and independent video games with a naked and personal sound.

Recording smaller versions of our string, woodwind and brass ensembles just wasn’t enough this time around, so we’ve also supplemented them with a huge selection of melodic percussion phrases. For the first time ever, string quartet phrases have been included, perfect for layering with the other ensembles to bring the focus back to your compositions. The overall emphasis here is on the lightest of touches, from delicate violin duos and solo clarinet to harp glissandi and gently played mallets.

Exquisite Intimacy; Many people assume that Sonokinetic’s signature sound is grand and statuesque, as we fill our recording space with many talented players and layer phrases together in our bespoke Kontakt engines. However, sometimes it’s great to dial things down for a more personal feel, and that’s just what we’ve done with Indie.

For the first time ever, string quartet phrases have been included, perfect for layering with the other ensembles to bring the focus back to your compositions. The overall emphasis here is on the lightest of touches, from delicate violin duos and solo clarinet to harp glissandi and gently played mallets. 
In fact, the melodic percussion deserves a special mention as we made sure to catch all the subtly and wonder of these instruments, including the seldom-sampled concert cimbalom, a dulcimer-like instrument with a unique sound. The dreamy melodic textures we composed for Indie were delicately played by our performers in the same space as the other ensembles. Marimba, xylophone, glockenspiel, vibraphone, crotales, upright piano, celesta and concert harp bring an intense personal feel to the whole collection.
We felt that the Indie recordings were well suited to the playback engine which we originally debuted with ‘Noir’, our jazz-drenched section library. That means that the 12 preset keys each hold a single performance. Mapping phrases like this makes it easy to combine melodies and harmonies and hear real-time performances intertwine with one another. 
The randomize feature also makes a welcome return, which conjures twelve complimentary phrases with every press. There’s also the option to randomize per orchestral section, either string quartet, string ensemble, woodwinds, brass quintet or melodic percussion
Producing Indie was a experience like no other and we hope that when you hear it, you’ll feel the same way.
We, at Sonokinetic BV, are very proud to introduce Indie to you and can’t wait to hear the amazing things you, our valued customer base, will produce with it.
Sonokinetic has established a name as one of the best value & quality sample producers and with this product we’d like to underline that statement. We stick with our unbeatable pricing module and high quality sampling.

www.sonokinetic.net/products/classical/minimal

With Minimal, Sonokinetic delivers the fourth installment in our current range of orchestral instruments. We have listened to our users, and built an entirely new system from the ground up, defining what we think is a revolutionary novel direction in orchestral pattern-based sampling.

Minimal would suggest a particular music style, and many of the patterns available in this instrument are very well suited for that style. However, we’d like to stress that this is indeed a very flexible instrument, capable of enhancing a broad range of musical arrangements and compositions in a wide variety of styles. Where Minimal differs from libraries like Tutti and Vivace is in its section-based approach. All phrases are recorded per orchestral section and can be used separately or together and in any combination, allowing for a great deal of variations at your fingertips.

The first thing that would strike you is the non-apologetic interface style without any gloss. Apart from this being a respectful nod to our Dutch art heritage on the outside, it also very much references the “form follows function” approach that Dutch design is famous for. There are no superfluous elements and we’ve arranged everything in an intuitive way. You have every control in one screen within an uncrowded workspace. You might not suspect it from just looking at it, but there are a lot of complex functionalities at your disposal from this one screen. Discover more about those in the detailed descriptions right here in the user manual and on the tutorial videos available on our website: www.sonokinetic.net.

Recordings for Minimal took place in Zlin, Czech Republic, in the same hall and with the same team responsible for recording Tutti and Vivace. The performances have been edited with the same meticulous attention to detail and quality.

Many innovative functions grace this instrument, mostly under the hood, as we believe that technology is at its best when you don’t notice it. One of the functions that might need a bit more introduction is the harmonic shift function. This element of Minimal can lead to great sounding results and also serve as a very rewarding inspirational tool. So please read and digest the part of this manual dedicated to that function.

More visibly, and in lieu of popular request, we have found a way to greatly improve the score view. Despite the pixel restrictions of the Kontakt window we’ve managed to squeeze in a clear and accurate score view, although you can still order a digital full-scale copy of the score, if you so desire.

We, at Sonokinetic BV, are very proud to introduce Minimal to you, and can’t wait to hear the amazing things you, our valued customer base, will produce with it.

Sonokinetic has established a name as one of the best value & quality sample producers and with this product we’d like to underline that statement. We stick with our unbeatable pricing module and high quality sampling.

We wish you the best inspiration and creativity.

The Strings that work for you
https://www.sonokinetic.net/products/classical/orchestral-strings/
We are very proud to present our take on Orchestral Strings to you.
We have spent the best part of five years working on this project and have left no stone unturned to create a product that, as a multisampled String Orchestra alone, will satisfy even the most demanding users. But this collection is so much more than that. Orchestral Strings is the culmination of all of our efforts and experience to this point. It melds together everything that we've learned about multisampling over the years, combined with our knowledge of orchestral phrases.
At its core, Orchestral Strings is a hugely capable full-divisi full-size Strings section, recorded with the fantastic Capellen Orchestra in Zlin, Czech Republic. It is edited with the utmost care to preserve all the details and character of the performances.
We covered all of the most-used articulations in up to four velocities, and we devised a 'shared tail' system for the shorts that provides you with a greater variety of round robins without unnecessarily increasing the memory load.
Poly-Legato and Auto Divisi ensure the most realistic sound imaginable. No corners were cut in making this product, and it will evolve for many years to come. In fact, we still have some surprises up our sleeves that will enhance your user experience and provide tools that are useful and fun in equal measure.
Included within the instrument are some powerful midi engines with midi import, real-time midi manipulation, a piano roll editor and midi export. The possibilities are near endless once you scratch the surface, yet very easily accessible if you just want to compose quickly.
The Runs engine will trigger and play silky smooth runs whilst you hold chord notes. Just play a start and end key and these runs will adhere to your chosen chords and transition between all the applicable notes automatically.
The Phrases engine at its core works as a sketchpad for Patterns, with the core 12 patterns auto-saved with your instrument or DAW session. Going further, a potential 12 x 12 x 12 phrases can be saved away to be shared between your instruments and projects.
These phrases are then playable in a fashion very similar to the way our Phrase-Based instruments work. You can even drag in phrases from the Phrase-Based products you already own, edit them and tweak them to your liking, vastly boosting the flexibility of this Strings instrument. You can even drag out the midi for entire played passages including any chord changes, added Harmony etc. for use in third-party instruments or for instance to add a synth layer for a hybrid sound!
We, at Sonokinetic BV, are very proud to introduce Sonokinetic Orchestral Strings to you and can’t wait to hear the amazing things you, our valued customer, will produce with it.
Sonokinetic has established a name as one of the best value & quality sample producers, and with this product, we’d like to underline that statement. We stick with our unbeatable pricing model and high-quality sampling.
We wish you the best of inspiration and creativity. With warm regards,
The Sonokinetic Orchestral Strings Production Team

Muted Orchestral Strings

https://www.sonokinetic.net/products/classical/sordino-strings/

Sordino strings add three essential articulations to the Sonokinetic Orchestral Strings collection, captured with a Sordino, or Mute, on the strings. This has a very specific sound that is bound to enchant and delight!
The Sordino strings have been recorded as part of the Orchestral Strings family, in the same hall and also with full divisi and the same attention to detail. They perfectly complement the Sonokinetic Orchestral Strings and fill that need for a little warmer and smoother sound.
All functionalities in Sonokinetic Orchestral Strings have been ported to Sordino Strings, except MIDI export.
If you're familiar with the playing engine of the former, you will feel right at home. If Sordino Strings is your first dip in the 'Sonokinetic orchestral sampling water’ however, make sure to check all the Spot-On Tutorial Videos on the website for a deeper dive into the functions and features of the Orchestral Strings line.
This product is the culmination of all of our efforts to this point. It melds together our experience in orchestral phrases with what we've learned about multisampling over the years, and it furthers our quest for complete phrase flexibility.
There is Poly-Legato and Auto Divisi to ensure the most realistic sound imaginable.

https://www.sonokinetic.net/products/classical/dacapo/
This library captures the full sound of the symphonic orchestra. A library that keeps things simple and straightforward. All sections and the most common articulations are provided in this collection. Recorded with a highly professional and renowned orchestra that is also credited for their work in our libraries “Tutti” and “Vivace”. Making this multi sampled orchestral sample collection the pivotal accomplishment to complete the Sonokinetic cinematic orchestral tools.
It has been a dream to create a library like this. Sonokinetic has put in their utmost best to produce this unique instrument. And after a long production we proudly present to you ‘Da Capo’. 

Da Capo 2.0 

What has changed:
- the instrument has become much more efficient in terms of processor use
- we expanded the top end playable range
- legatos are smoother
- we ironed out inconsistencies in the instrument’s guts
- overall modernising of the innards
- less clicking: cmd/ctrl clicking an articulation will update all

What has not changed:
- the great unprocessed raw sound people have come to love
- the sample content (the update is script and nki only)
- the interface (we still really like that)

Lost in the Trees - Red

https://www.sonokinetic.net/products/instruments/thewatchmaker/
We’ve got time...
The sounds of ticking clocks and watches have always been associated with suspense, drama and edge-of-the-seat movie moments. In typical Sonokinetic fashion we couldn’t let this cinematic trend pass us by without jumping in with both feet and sampling an exhaustive collection of pocket watches, wristwatches and small clocks. The extremely quiet sounds that these mechanisms produce had us using all the tricks in our recording book to capture clean and precise samples without extraneous noise. After much experimentation we think that we’ve managed to capture intimately nuanced watch sounds without sacrificing any of the character of these unique timepieces.
Of course, we couldn’t resist presenting these samples in a fun and functional interface. It has a special steampunk twist with multiple cogs and gears that can be clicked to access deeper parameters of the performance. Within the GUI it’s easy to combine sounds, add effects and trigger exactly the rhythmic patterns that you want to play.
We, at Sonokinetic BV, are very proud to introduce The Watchmaker to you and can’t wait to hear the amazing things you, our valued customer, will produce with it.
Sonokinetic has established a name as one of the best value & quality sample producers and with this product we’d like to underline that statement. We undercut our pricing module and then some and still offer the high quality sampling you have come to expect from us.

Many people assume that Sonokinetic’s signature sound is grand and statuesque, as we fill our recording space with many talented players and layer phrases together in our bespoke Kontakt engines. However, sometimes it’s great to dial things down for a more personal feel, and that’s just what we’ve done with Indie. The style of these intimate ensemble phrases take their lead from modern TV drama, boutique film and independent video games with a naked and personal sound.

Recording smaller versions of our string, woodwind and brass ensembles just wasn’t enough this time around, so we’ve also supplemented them with a huge selection of melodic percussion phrases. For the first time ever, string quartet phrases have been included, perfect for layering with the other ensembles to bring the focus back to your compositions. The overall emphasis here is on the lightest of touches, from delicate violin duos and solo clarinet to harp glissandi and gently played mallets.
