    Beautiful ancient keyboard sample library for Native Instruments Kontakt Dulcitone 1884² £25 The worlds first multi-sampled rare and beautiful 150 (ish) year old DULCITONE, and one of the few ways you can hear what one actually sounds like. for FULL version of Kontakt 4 or above. add to cart These rare beauties have become deeply fashionable, especially amongst “with it” film composers looking for something with a bit of character in a Tom Waits or Bjorky kinda way. Jon Brion uses dulcitone extensively on his soundtracks of Magnolia, Punch Drunk Love and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless mind. mid Originally designed and manufactured in Scotland in the 1800's, and with allegedly only 2000 in existence the DULCITONE is a portable keyboard that was made for missionaries to hump around remote African village churches to help perk up hymn services. It has a very basic piano action with spring-loaded felt covered hammers striking small magnet shaped tuning forks. A bit like a Fender Rhodes electric piano without the electric bits, and has a very lovely woody, clonky glockenspiel/celesta kind of sound.

  • Infundibulum #2.1 | sound-dust

    A chaotic time funnel sample library for Kontakt VST - includes a 3 way arpeggiator, treated strings, guitars, horns, school recorder, whirly tubes and many more. INFUNDIBULUM#2.1 The second in the series of multi-arp workstations. A gloriously grimey playground of possibilities with an open door policy for unexpected artefacts and happenstance. An instrument with the audio patina of a life well lived. 3 x 60 sound sources = 216,000 combinations 270+ snapshots...but INFUNDIBULUM is all about tweaking 3.8GB download for FULL version of Kontakt 5.8 or above add to cart INFUNDIBULUM#2.1 - takes the polyrhythmic cascades of sound, strange interlocking tremolos and beautiful warped loopings of her big sister into bigger bolder territories - great for organic and gorgeous pseudo orchestras, wibbly wobbly dust pads, muscular Michael Nyman swoon and epic thrusting cinematica. INFUNDIBULUM#2.1 is packed with 4GB of bowed, sung, spun, plucked, stretched, teased and blown things that have been squashed through tape, vinyl, springs and valves for the character and audio patina of a life well lived. 60 sound sources per channel = 216,000 glorious combinations New in #2.1 - 6 filter sequencers, updated sound sources, new convolution reverbs, user sample import, new FX and a snazzy new interface. "Infundibulum is unbelievably groovy… what an amazing untapped palette of timbres and rhythms, a real polyrhythmic wonderland.” - Chris Carter - Throbbing Gristle, Carter Tutti and Chris & Cosey middle THE INFUNDIBULUM family is not intended to authentically replicate any of the sounds included, some have been deeply multi sampled and others are deliberately stretched across a wider key span than is sensible. The samples all have very obvious loop points. The whole point of Infundibulum is to embrace and celebrate the artefacts that occur when sampling goes too far. Hold a chord, any chord, and you will hear the different notes start to cycle back on themselves in disjointed but glorious ways that you will never hear from a gazillion gigabyte hypersampled piano, crumhorn or orchestral calabash. Then add in the multi-arp and filter sequencers, 3 sounds repeating through different length cycles at different speeds, and you are halfway to an out-of-body experience. The SAMPLED INSTRUMENTS...

  • PLANKTON DRUMMER | sound-dust

    Gorgeous diaphonous plinky plonk drifting through the Adriatic. A multi sequencing, mulit sampled loveliness generator for Kontakt. PLANKTON DRUMMER Award winning harmonic drum machine* £60 72 tuned drum instruments - acoustic & electronic classics A complex multi sequencer per note FX sequence lanes per note Scale and key quantizer with unique quantized pitch wheel Hard to explain - a JOY to use for FULL version of Kontakt 5.8 and above ADD TO CART mid First and foremost, PLANKTON DRUMMER is a unique drum device packed with really great sounds. It excels in quickly inspiring new rhythms from a wide variety of classic and unique sounds. 72 instruments, over 3000 samples from C lassic drum machines (including the Roland 909 and MACHINEDRUM of Orbital ), beautifully recorded acoustic drum kits and a fascinating gamut of unlikely wild card sounds . The PLANKTON DRUMMER magic is in the unique plankton sequencing system. 12 keys with their own independent sequencer to trigger sounds and FX THE SOUNDS - and where to find them * A HARMONIC DRUM MACHINE I don't think anyone has tried this before, it's pretty exciting - here's how it works... All 72 sounds in PLANKTON DRUMMER have the fundamental note tuned as closely as possible to something that resembles a useful pitch. This isn't an exact science because snares, high hats etc have a lot of complex harmonics bouncing around - it's do-able, but tricky. Electronic components are a bit more open to being kicked into shape. So, the C5 BOOM key is loaded with electronic kick sounds that are tuned to C, the D5 DOOF key is loaded with acoustic kicks that are tuned (if possible) to D, the B5 FULL KIT key is loaded with full acoustic and electronic drum kits that are all tuned (if possible) to a B etc... Set key to C# and scale to Hungarian Gypsy and those Cs will play as C#, D stays where it is and B becomes a C - told you it was exciting : ) Play the C5 BOOM key and the sequencer and FX that are specific to that note are opened, you can rummage around to your hearts content and not affect other notes. Hit FX LANES to control FX with a sequencer With BEND ON the sequenced notes, will move through the notes of the chosen scale/key - or not : ) VEL DEPTH controls how much affect the green velocity lane has on volume. Right click to learn and use a midi controller to create pattern nuance and drum rolls it's not an exact science PLANKTON DRUMMER is above all playful and intuitive, it quickly helps you develop unexpected and original ideas. Combine the kick of a Roland 909 with a flabby Ludwig snare, percussion from the OPTIGAN and modular high hats. Quickly load a Reggaeton kick pattern and play it against the snare pattern of '50 ways to leave your lover ' with trap hi-hats. Quantize the pitch to A# Bebop minor - THIS IS ALL POSSIBLE! 'Underneath the Kontakt exterior lies one of the most creative drum products that we’ve encountered. It’s perfect for more basic duties, but its brilliance really shines bright as you begin to explore its hidden depths.'

  • LOOP POOL - PERCUSSION | sound-dust

    Over 1000 dirty percussion loops from the nimble fingers of Grammy winner Marcio Doctor. A BPM synced sample library for Kontakt VST LOOP POOL PERCUSSION £50 An infinity of eccentric rhythm texture devised in a unique collaboration with Grammy winning percussion maestro and composer Marcio Doctor . 3 sample sets - BAM & TSCHAK, MOONDOG generator and GROOVEPOOL 60 Kontakt instruments (K5 & K6 versions) 1055 synced stem loops 100 full loops curated by Marcio and Sound Dust 1.5 GB total size for FULL version of Kontakt 5.8 and/or 6.4.2 ADD TO CART Who ? Marcio Doctor is a percussionist and composer with a finely tuned ear for texture and groove. Originally from Argentina and now settled in Hamburg, he has travelled the world and amassed an amazing collection of crazy things to hit that make great noises. For this project Marcio carefully selected the most appropriate and some times most eclectic of his instruments to build a huge collection of complimentary grooves and rhythm textures. Bombo and Tan Tan for beautiful low rounded thud, Riq and various tambourines for snare like grooves, unlikely metal and glass objects for high-end clatter...and a wooden stool ! (see full list below) So, a Sound Dust collaboration with Marcio couldn't be anything but really, really exciting. LOOP POOL PERCUSSION pours more than 1000 Marcio loops into the LOOP POOL engine to create a sample instrument with literally a gazillion rhythm and texture possibilities. Always synced to the BPM of your DAW, you can intuitively trigger, time slip and morph samples with mod wheel and keyboard to create beautiful and bonkers percussive adventures. LOOP POOL PERCUSSION is an unexpected and refreshing alternative to epic drum imperialism and could be your new groovy secret weapon. Why ? This is an out of the ordinary sample library partly inspired by the very out of the ordinary MOONDOG - the legendary 'Viking of 6th Avenue'. You may not have heard of him, but if you are interested in the coffee stained groove of Tom Waits , the wonky blues of Captain Beefheart , or the visionary cacophony of Harry Partch you will love him and his very strange story. A very innovative way to create variation in the patterns cross-fading between the layers. I just love the way everything is recorded, it has that vibe-y sound that I like so much. Johannes Ringen - Avengers- Age of Ultron, Fast and Furious 7, Norsemen twenty free curated loops here mid Marcios instruments Bombo , crash cymbals stacks, cup chimes stack, floor toms, small, medium and large frame drums, flight case kick, Riq , seed pods, tiny and large tambourines, Tan Tan , trash splash stack, woodblock, bike seat, metal Reco-Reco, bamboo brushes, tiny bells, various Caxixi s and shakers, cymbal brush, marbles, bamboo Reco-reco , soft shaker, steel container, tin resonator, triangles, Congas, high and low wooden drums, wooden stool, ceramic tile, small and medium gongs, Kanjira , pie dish, bells, cowbells, custom-made metal slit drum, aluminium tube, singing bowl. All these grooves and effects were played either with different drumsticks, soft, medium and hard mallets, brushes, chopsticks, metal beaters or using different finger and hand playing techniques. GROOVEPOOL_CLANKY_K6 LOOP POOL : Percussion - wonky organic percussion sample library for Kontakt VST Marcio Doctor Don't look into his eyes : ) BAM_one shot_K5 LOOP POOL : Percussion - wonky organic percussion sample library for Kontakt VST GROOVEPOOL_CLANKY_K6 LOOP POOL : Percussion - wonky organic percussion sample library for Kontakt VST 1/8 LOOP POOL PERCUSSION is about hitting any note and hearing what happens when you mod wheel through four BPM synced stem variations. With the unique time funnel feature that adjusts playback speed per layer a single note can be very fertile ground indeed. Add more notes for more inspiration and rhythmic interplay. Reverse loops with the play head control and stretch single loops across the whole keyboard with the note lock. Use legato to start a new loop from where you left the last one and offset to adjust the groove of each and every stem Every control can be DAW automated or midi learned for complex processing and jamming. 'In short, Loop Pool Percussion is a triumph! It puts a whole new spin on using rhythmic loops which gives a wealth of control to the user and lends itself incredibly well to experimentation and play. The particular quality of the sounds is very appealing – not over produced.'

It's Pendle at his playful best, loading every button and wheel with the means to twist and turn piano sounds into something new. Chaos always hides round the corner, but the success is in somehow keeping things organic and beautiful, haunted and lovely." Mat Davidson - my favourite multi Emmy winning composer The sound components that make this possible.... White Ghost is made from recordings of a broken upright piano convolved in the same way as the Plastic piano. There are 23 layers of velocity, but using the Time Machine engine in Kontakt these layers are stretched over the entire keyboard range (co to c7) which adds strange and unexpected artifacts . Yellow Ghost works similarly to the White Ghost, but with a different set of broken piano samples and 2 sets of 10 velocity layers. White Piano is a 4 velocity multi sample of a Hohner Pianet T electric piano. Recorded dry, but with re-amping possibilities built into the interface. The Plastic Piano is a multi sampled piano patch made on a Technics WSA1 modelling keyboard . Each individual sampled note was then loaded into a convolution reverb plug in and blasted with varying levels of controlled white noise, and the output recorded and remapped as a 6 velocity layer multi sample. Rubber Piano is really a multi sampled palm muted Fender Stratocaster recorded through a valve combo. Its unlikely looping and hints of amp noise add a useful pluck and gritty texture. Pink Ghost is a looped, stretched and treated version of the plastic piano layer. Like the other ghost layers, instead of vibrato there is a formant filter which can be BPM modulated for full banshee effect. Reversed, edited and looped multi sample of a Hohner Pianet T electric piano. Reversed, edited and looped plastic piano. Reversed, looped, stretched and treated version of the rubber piano layer.

    "Sound Dust makes some of the most unique and inspiring instruments out there" - Trent Reznor. Requires a FULL version of Native Instruments Kontakt DRIFT PREQUEL The origins of SOUND DUST — pulled apart, rebuilt, and CROSSBRED into a modular drift playground 20 INSTRUMENTS SNUGGLED inTO 1 Kontakt interface 80 curated modular stacks (multis) 220 snapshots 4GB download modular DRIFT layering system FOR UNLIKELY instrumentIONAL INTERMINGLING tape-like pitch and tone drift engine add to cart This instrument rewards curiosity more than discipline. Instruments shouldn’t always behave themselves Unlike conventional Kontakt libraries, Drift Prequel is an experimental Kontakt instrument built for composers, producers and sound designers looking for something beyond traditional sample libraries. Drift Prequel focuses on exploration and inspiration - blending acoustic instruments, synths and unpredictable modulation and effects into a single creative tool for hybrid traditional textures, ambient music, film scoring and experimental composition. Drift Prequel is an electro-acoustic ideas machine and a new home for some early Sound Dust instruments that are now heading into retirement*. Before they disappear, they have been lovingly smashed to pieces, combined with new sounds and textures, and gently re-knitted into the DRIFT ecosystem. The result is a strange modular playground where instruments can stack, crossbreed and drift into new forms. Pitch wanders like old tape, noise percolates, tone shifts subtly, nothing stays perfectly still. That's how we like it. ...listen below for unlikely stacked collisions SLOW FOLK_all sounds by DRIFT PREQUEL Pendle 00:00 / 01:01 HYBRID PIANO_PREQUEL_modular stack 00:00 / 00:22 HYBRID TAPE WARBLE KEYS 3_PREQUEL_modular stack 00:00 / 00:22 HYBRID KEYS 4_PREQUEL_modular stack 00:00 / 00:22 BUBBLE TEA_PREQUEL_modular stack 00:00 / 00:22 a hybrid Kontakt instrument built from retired Sound Dust classics * These 4 beauties are undergoing this delightful change.

This little marvel comprises three instrument sets – acoustic, muted and amped. Each set features a number of fully tweakable sounds which can be edited, blended together and given the full Sound Dust treatment to create your own unique Prepared Pianet. As with all Sound Dust instruments the Prepared Pianet is rich with possibility. The audible charms and eccentricities of classic tine and pickup electric pianos are utilised and brought under the control of the player as never before. mid Reminded me of my old Pianet T, which I played through an elderly Selmer 100 watt valve head (turned up to eleven, of course) and a 4x12 speaker cab with a couple of torn cones. The resulting overdrive and feedback blotted out three guitars and drums leaving just me and the bass in a body pummelling groove. I thought that sound was lost in time, but it’s possible once more and at much lower volumes with the Prepared Pianet.

As with other Sound Dust instruments the results can be thought of as a self-contained orchestra of the surreal. The Prepared Pianet offers superb standard electric pianos and heavily processed tines. Stratospheric pads are under-laid with electronic tweets and chatter. Played lower down the scale, a muted piano becomes an unstable electro bass. Whacked out opportunities abound, from evolving electronics, snappy acoustics and indescribable musical tones and frequencies. The percussive blasts and tinkling subtleties which can be achieved inspire the imagination. Whats Inside ?

Organic and packed with character, FELT DULCITONE has an otherworldly presence and warmth that feels personal, like the loving nuzzle of a furry pet in front of a crackling open fire. Originally designed and manufactured in Scotland in the 1800's, and with allegedly only 2000 in existence, a DULCITONE is a portable keyboard that was made for missionaries to hump around remote African village churches to help perk up hymn services. It has a very basic piano action with spring-loaded felt covered hammers striking small magnet shaped tuning forks. Like a Fender Rhodes electric piano without electricity, with a very lovely woody, clonky glockenspiel/celesta kind of sound. To build FELT DULCITONE a layer of felt carpet was squashed under the rudimentary hammer mechanism of an unsuspecting 120-year-old Dulcitone. Every note recorded at 10 velocity levels with 4 round robins. Binaural recording with Jecklin Disc and Rode NT55 mics.
