The disk space required in order to use the library is 294 MB. The pack contains 122 individual Kontakt 5 patches in total. The included Kontakt 5 patches are based on a custom script that was kindly provided by Tudor Nastase aka Evoke. The root note for the arpeggios is C2 and the sound quality will deteriorate significantly as you move further away from the root pitch.
The arpeggios will sync to your host application’s tempo automatically. The sounds in the atmospheres folder are mostly suitable for monophonic playing. They are suitable for polyphonic playing. The sounds in the instruments folder include pads, keys, bass samples, and leads.
An interview with Bryan will be published on our website later today.
He has published a number of free sound libraries and NI Reaktor ensembles on his website, including an outstanding free soundbank for the legendary Synth 1 virtual instrument. The Artistīryan Lake aka Sound Author is a composer and sound designer based in Florida. Feel free to experiment with these samples and layer them together to create even bigger and more complex soundscapes and pads. Project Pegasus is a cinematic sound library that is perfectly suitable for use in cinematic scoring and ambient soundtracks, but most of the included pads and soundscapes can be used in a variety of music genres such as electronica, experimental rock, dubstep, etc. The library contains over 100 individual instrument patches, covering a broad range of cinematic and ambient sounds ranging from huge dreamy soundscapes to classic analog pads and earth-shaking bass samples. Bryan has used various sound mangling and re-sampling techniques to create a variety of rich ambient pads and some fantastic arpeggio sequences. The sounds were built from scratch using various virtual synthesizers and real-world instruments and processed with both internal and external studio gear. Project Pegasus offers a diverse palette of warm and spacious sounds that are ready for use in Kontakt 5 or any WAV compatible sampler. I may get to it if NI doesn't do something themselves first.Project Pegasus is a free collection of dreamy analog arpeggios, lush strings, huge pads, and ambient soundscapes crafted by Bryan Lake aka Sound Author. But other side projects have been more interesting lately but it's on the list. As well as find (and remove) bad links/etc.
So I get a new (non-library) product, I add it to the Publisher's directory but then I have to manually update the Quickload for that publisher by deleting and re-adding their directory. My Kontakt content is split up into directories by publisher/producer, then by Product. Which I have to do now when I add things/move things. nki/.nkm files stored in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Native Instruments\Kontakt 5\QuickLoad I've often considered building some tools to manage the Quickload links, so you could have a list of directories that you wanted maintained in the Quickload and it would remove the existing dir and rebuild it fresh. On Windows (not sure on Mac) it's just a bunch of directories with file links to the. The biggest problem with Quickload is it doesn't update if you move/change things. I think the way this new Kontakt works will be just fine, it's just different.
NI has been steadfast at reserving that for products that pay license fees. Quickload is the right answer but users do seem to like having things show up in the Library list.
