[UVI Orchestral Suite Free Download (WIN-OSX)
Iberio Ralda
Cacophony is easily the most massive collection of live concert hall performance sound effects, room tones, crowd reactions, orchestral tuning drones and incidental sound effects you will find anywhere. As we accelerate toward technical perfection and hyperrealism in the musical world with the help of technology, it's important to remember the living flaws and details that make the experience of listening to live music so immersive. What is often most missing is the ghost of the place, the murmur and roar of the audience, the players tuning up - all of those little sounds in between. In their absence, we often feel something missing, though we cannot always put our finger on what.
The Kontakt interface includes a suite of automation-ready sound-shaping controls to give you total creative flexibility. You have control over swell, attack, release, offset, vibrato, filter, pitch (coarse & fine), articulation switching, cross-fading and layering, and so much more. We've also included 20 unique sound-designed custom FX presets to give you lots of creative options.
This library is designed for the full retail version of Native Instruments Kontakt 5.5 or later. Kontakt is an industry-standard advanced virtual instrument software platform. You can view screenshots of this library's custom graphical user interface in the image gallery above. This library is packed with features to provide you a wide range of sound shaping parameter controls, each one totally automation-ready in your host environment or Kontakt's stand-alone mode. Learn more about Kontakt by Clicking Here.
This is a standard Kontakt open-format library, so the free Kontakt Player does not fully support it and can only run it in a limited "demo mode". However, the sample directories are unlocked so you can use them in other wav-compatible software, sampler and synth formats. The special Libraries tab doesn't support this open-format Kontakt library, but you can use the standard File browser tab and import this library into the Kontakt Quickload window for easy loading and navigation.
The full retail version of Native Instruments Kontakt version 5.5 (or later) is required to use .nki instrument presets included in this library. The free Kontakt "Player" and "Add Library" import process do not support this standard open-format Kontakt library. Windows 7 or higher. Mac OSX 10.9 or higher. Dual Core CPU, 2 GB System Ram, SATA or SSD hard drive recommended for this library.

"A brilliant idea realized at a very reasonable price, this Kontakt library gives you a wide range of 'incidental' concert hall sounds, as well as pads and ambiences based on them via five main NKIs descriptively titled 'Applause', 'Audience Murmur' and SFX', 'Orchestra Tuning and Warmup', 'Roomtones' and 'Section Tuning and Warmup'. Three sound layers each offer their own sample menus and parameters, a fourth adds a synth layer, and a full-on modulation and effects processing engine opens serious sound design potential beyond the obvious"
For over a decade, our mission has been to create an ever-growing selection of inspiring instruments, orchestral sections, drums, percussion ensembles, choirs, solo voices, folk and vintage instruments, experimental sonic contraptions, cinematic effects and sound-designed creations.
Longer than anyone in the industry, and with more ear for detail, Audio Ease has been traveling the world to record the acoustics of the best sounding spaces.
The results of hundreds of these recordings are included with Altiverb 8.
Ranging from London's Wembley stadium to the ancient caves of the island of Malta and the churches, concert halls and rock studios from cities like Tokyo, Paris, Amsterdam, Berlin and New York.
The Impulse Response library is now more accessible then ever because of Altiverb's newly designed browser. Select impulse responses by clicking photos of rooms. Instant, gapless loading, finding similar sounding spaces, organise by reverb length (RT60), and single click favorites are just a few of the possibilities. The Impulse Response Browser and the pictures in it are resizeable and contains an extensive search field.
First class orchestral recording studios from the US East and West coast are featured in Altiverb, like Todd AO, 20th Century Fox, paramount, some of these studios do no longer exist, but their sound lives on in Altiverb.
Many world class recording studio live spaces and echo chambers, from Tokyo to Paris are part of the library.
(Not your) every day roomsThe POST category features many different spaces, domestic like bathrooms, restrooms, kitchens, different types of transport, trains, cars, planes, huge domes and small places.
Many world class recording studio live spaces and echo chambers, from Tokyo to Paris are part of the Altiverb impulse responses library.
Every day roomsThe POST category features many different sounding spaces, every day rooms like bathrooms, restrooms, kitchens, different types of transport, trains, cars, planes, but also the not so ordinary, odd sounding, spaces like museums, huge domes or sewer pipes.
Altiverb contains a tremendous amount of classic reverb gear and purpose built echo chambers. You will find all the EMT plates you want, spring reverbs, classic digital gear like the 480, 224, the RMX 16, the 250. Add the Frank Sinatra and Beach Boys echo chambers and you have everything you need to recreate all those classic sounds.
The EMT 250 audio examples are recordings of the DRY input track played through the actual EMT 250 hardware reverb at the IR recording session by Arjen in New York.
The ALTIVERB examples are bounced tracks from a Pro Tools session in which the DRY input sends to an Aux track with the Altiverb 7 plug-in inserted and Altiverb 7 has loaded the IR of the same EMT 250 setting.
The SST-282 audio examples are recordings of the DRY input track played through the actual SST-282 Space Delay in Stanley Arts' studio at the actual IR recording session.
The ALTIVERB examples are bounced tracks from a Reaper session in which the DRY input has the Altiverb 7 plug-in inserted on its track and this Altiverb 7 has loaded the IR of the same SST-282 setting. A stretch of SST-282 DA converter noise was mixed into the Altiverb mock up to make the comparison fair.For the joy of listening to a nice piece of music, both examples have the same amount of DRY input mixed to it. The guitar example is a snippet from Kiss Landing by Pierre Bensusan.
In all examples there was no damping applied in the 240 unit. Martyn's setting is his preferred one: the -24dB Low cut on the 240 and a personal EQ setting to boost treble. The other two examples are the -24dB low cut and no low cut. All 240 audio examples are recordings of the DRY input track played through the actual 240 Gold Plate in Martyn Heyne's Studio in Berlin at the IR recording session.
The ALTIVERB examples are bounced tracks from a Pro Tools session in which the same DRY input has the Altiverb 7 plug-in inserted on its track and this Altiverb 7 has loaded the IR of the same 240 setting.
A close listen will reveal that the IR in Altiverb lacks the noise the real 240 reference recording has.
With the sweeps and tool you get with Altiverb 8 you can capture acoustics yourself and use these impulse responses in Altiverb.Please check the tutorial video and follow the tips to get best results.
- To make your own impulse responses (IRs) you must playback a sweep sound from a speaker.
- You must record this with microphones, as many as you want output channels from your altierb impulse response.
- The input recording must be an interleaved wav file with SMPTE channel ordering, so if you need a center channel it must be the third channel. Pro Tools bounces any interleaved file always in SMPTE channel order.
- The largest alowed output configuration is 9.0.6. (note: 7.0.6 is not produced, instead 9.0.4 is produced when 13 channels are in the recording.).
- The recording must contain either 1 sweep, including start and end blip, for mono input, or two sweeps for stereo input.
Impulse Repsonses made like this, with the Altiverb sweeps and the tool that comes with Altiverb, may only be used in Altiverb. These IRs are saved in Altiverb Proprietary format. Reverse engineering or re-sampling is prohibited. This information is also in the End User License Agreement of Altiverb.
On a busy film set when people are waiting, time is limited. When you do not have the time to use an entire minute per take use one of shorter sweeps below.Do select the proper sweep for the length of the reverb you wish to sample.
Spring reverbs, echo chambers, plate reverbs and other analog reverbs: please use the sweep files mentioned above.
For digitally connected reverb gear: use the spike file below. It is prefered over sweeps when capturing time variant features like chorus.
This essential reverb parameter is very prominent in Altiverb 8. You can apply an exponential decay on any impulse response to reduce the reverb time, without changing the character of the room. Read more...
Real spaces often contain less high frequency content than algorithmic (synthetic) reverbs. Sometimes you need that extra sparkling brightness in a reverb tail that is just hard to obtain from the real world. Read more...
Control the reverb length of three separate and adjustable frequency bands. Shortening is damping, lengthening is enhancing. You can see the effect of damping in the waterfall graph of the impulse response.
