Crocus Soundware has released Motiif: Expedition Brass for Kontakt, a sample library featuring trumpet, trombone and euphonium. They say:
The core of this library is our polyrhythms engine, which leverages Kontakt’s Time Machine Pro feature and allows the user to generate endlessly evolving, tempo-synced musical motifs by layering MIDI notes. Whether performed live on a keyboard or composed in the DAW, each MIDI note can trigger its own individual tempo-synced pattern. The result combines the immediacy and flexibility of a traditional multi-sampled Kontakt instrument with the baked-in compositional complexity of a phrase library. MOTIIF is a tool for crafting infinite ostinatos.
The user-interface allows articulations to be layered, mixed and reversed and our ‘crossfade gizmo’ allows artful blending of sound layers with fun and intuitive color-coded controls.
