Soundset No Boundaries for Reaktor DRON-E released on patchpool
Hi All,
I just released this new Reaktor soundset:
Soundset No Boundaries for Reaktor DRON-E, an ensemble by Antonio Blanca
No Boundaries contains a wide variety of soundscapes, drones, one-finger-pads, vocal sounds, soprano sax sounds, textures made from percussion samples like gongs, bells, Glockenspiel and framedrum (Bodran), acoustic guitar sounds (plucked and bowed), Okarina textures (clay flute), processed field-recordings and some otherworldly, more experimental stuff.
Most of the 103 samples (48 Khz / 24 Bit / stereo) were produced exclusively for this set, some were borrowed from the vast pool of patchpool samples. All acoustic instruments were recorded with 3 high quality Neumann mics through a RME FF 800 using my regular L-C-R setup.
The download contains the Sample Map and the Snapshot Bank. The Sample Map can also be used in any other Reaktor ensemble that supports sample players and granulators. The samples can also be downloaded in a folder with single wav files so that they can be used in other samplers and granulators or directly inside a DAW without having to extract the samples from the Reaktor Sample Map.
Please download / read the pdf with the licence agreement, description and a patchlist here.
All demos in the widget below were produced entirely with DRON-E using only sounds from No Boundaries:

I made some vids, the first one displays how to load Snapshot Banks and Sample Maps into DRON-E, the second one is a small tutorial showing some of the basic functions and features of DRON-E:
Wow! As I worked through the sets, the 'Soundscapes' and 'Vocal Textures' sections met my high expectations...but, as I entered into the 'Instrumental Textures' section is when your musical pedigree truly shined as a real sum of Antonio's ensemble and your own unique musical and production skills. Well done ;-)

...then the order of the patches in the Snapshot Browser was well designed
Thank's Chris!
Indeed, as of my particular 'realtime' here (California High Desert, Thanksgiving Eve), the 'Percussion Instruments' section is completely blowing my mind as to the possibilities of 'Dron-E' and percussion ideas (given quality treatment and performance as exhibited in your work).

I was also thrilled by mangling the percussion sounds with DRON-E, the way it granulates the Bodran and Glockenspiel samples is quite amazing.
