Native Instruments and Ocean Swift launch Oscillarys synth, despite recent insolvency filingsNative Instruments is continuing to launch new products despite recent and widely publicised insolvency proceedings, and has partnered with virtual instrument specialist Ocean Swift on a new soft synth called Oscillarys.
The music production world was rocked last month when it was announced that Native Instruments – one of the world’s leading purveyors of hardware and software music-making tools – had entered preliminary insolvency. 
Quick to calm the concerns of existing members of the NI ecosystem was CEO Nick Williams, who confirmed business would “continue as usual” at Native Instruments, as well as at sister brands iZotope, Plugin Alliance and Brainworx.

And with that confirmation, Native Instruments has partnered with Ocean Swift to add another virtual instrument to its already sprawling library for its Kontakt Player.

Oscillarys is Ocean Swift’s new flagship NKS instrument, which takes inspiration from Native Instruments’ much-loved Absynth 6 to deliver an instrument perfect for “cinematic scoring and deep ambience. It boasts a three-layered synthesis engine, which OS says “bridges the gap between raw texture and ethereal musicality”.
It also features a unique dual-filter stage, pairing a multi-filter with an implementation of the celebrated Monark filter found in NI’s Reaktor software.
Oscillarys comes with a huge vault of over 1,500 oscillator samples, all provided as unencoded WAV files – meaning producers can freely use the content in other samplers or directly in their DAW.
There’s also 400+ professionally crafted presets covering cinematic pads, evolving drones, leads and keyboard sounds, as well as 100+ complex Multi stacks.
Oscillarys is also outfitted with deep NKS 2 integration, meaning users can control it via an array of NKS 2-compatible hardware instruments.
“Oscillarys blurs the border between the organic and the spectral with an atmospheric synthesis engine built for motion,” says Ocean Swift. 
“By layering deeply detailed textures with sweeping filters and shifting modulations, this instrument conjures tones that breathe, dissolve, and reform – shifting seamlessly from crystalline harmonics to distant electric choirs. It offers a sonic body that is darker, smoother, and undeniably alive with motion, bridging the gap between raw texture and ethereal musicality.”

Oscillarys is available exclusively via the Native Instruments online shop now, at an introductory price of €47.40 (regular price €79.99). You can also learn more at Ocean Swift.
