Crocus Soundware Motiif: Expedition BrassIntroducing MOTIIF: EXPEDITION BRASS, a powerful creative instrument built from intimately recorded Trumpet, Trombone, and Euphonium performances, designed for the full version of Kontakt 6.7+. At its core is our novel Polyrhythms Engine, which leverages Kontakt's Time Machine Pro feature and allows you to generate endlessly evolving, tempo-synced musical motifs simply by layering MIDI notes. Whether performed live on a keyboard or composed in your DAW, each MIDI note can trigger its own unique tempo-synced pattern. The result combines the immediacy and flexibility of a traditional multi-sampled Kontakt instrument with the beauty and compositional complexity of a phrase library. MOTIIF is an effortless engine for crafting infinite ostinatos. The source audio was captured with large-diaphragm condenser microphones positioned just centimeters from each instrument's bell, revealing hyper-intimate detail and nuance. Every pattern is uniquely recorded performance, rich with humanistic variation baked directly into the samples. The user interface enables deep layering and mixing of the motifs. A dedicated crossfade control provides intuitive, color-coded blending between sound layers, while LFO modulation syncs to your DAW's tempo to animate each layer's volume for evolving texture. MOTIIF also introduces new randomization tools, offering instant idea generation and expanding your creative possibilities. Features: Made for the full version of Kontakt 6.7 or higher (Not intended for Kontakt Player). VST3, VST2, AU and AAX compatible host. 7.1 GB samples Uncompressed (5.3 GB Compressed. Over 9 hours of combined audio). 2,790 Samples. 90 Selectable Patterns (45 Solo and 45 Ensemble). Dozens of Snapshot Presets. https://youtu.be/STsTKR06A-c Read More
