Native Instruments have released a new cinematic Kontakt instrument for their Evolution Series. It’s available for $179.00.
Music is a story, LORES is your narrator, inviting listeners on a sonic trip around the world to hear your own unique tale. From traditional strings to eclectic instruments, such as the hurdy-gurdy and shakuhachi, this innovative library makes it easy to add magic to your scenes. Play yourself into the narrative with an intuitive interface that lets you create extraordinary, evolving soundscapes.
Meticulously curated and refined, LORES dissolves the boundaries of traditional instrumentation, allowing you to seamlessly blend eclectic tones. Enter a space where the timbre of a Mongolian horse fiddle dances together with a woodwind ensemble, or hear what medieval pipes sound like accompanied by violin with a Middle Eastern flair. Choose from 16 instruments and hundreds of articulations to mix and match — the possibilities for fantastical blends are boundless.
Stories told through song are universal to the human experience, and that’s why LORES continues this age-old legacy with personable touches. Musicians were sampled playing with organic variations – random swells, unexpected tremolos, and stray harmonics create natural movement at the performance level. Using multi-mic recording, instruments can be physically staged within multi-dimensional smoke plumes, adding dynamic realism to your productions.
Immerse yourself in the magic and mystery of LORES with KOMPLETE KONTROL. Use its fully-integrated interface to intuitively create dynamic instrument blends, which can be fine-tuned with subtle compositional tools. Add another layer of playability and physical expression to your performances with NKS integration.
