New FREE programs: Medieval instruments for Korg Kronos

Post by aether »

I put together 24 programs based on samples I encountered over the many years, and used in my stuff.

So it comes as 24 programs + samples, called "Early Muse" as it is rooted in Early Music of the Middle Ages and Renaissance periods - with Dropbox link and details (and some accidental notes when I lost the will to live making the demo video):

Youtube demo

All details in the text under the video, including the link. Most are "natural" with only room reverb effects, a few programs go a bit more out into space with the sounds based on the samples.

Enjoy the time travel.

Hi Aether,

I just downloaded your samples/programs set. It is very well done and the instruments/sounds are quite impressive. I play a lot of classical music and also like baroque and earlier music, so your instruments will for sure stay on my Kronos.

Thank you so much for your generous offer.

thanks I hope it all works, it is my first program "release", I can't recall where all samples come from, there was an instrument museum about 18-19 years ago that released something and other bits I found.

I like to compose in the style of Early Music but with electronics, so these sounds served me well over the years - some example in https://soundcloud.com/levente-toth-2/l ... decamerone

Beautiful work! Thank you for creating this set. I got sucked into Baroque music recently and these sounds will come in handy.

Cheers!

Hi thank you, I unfortunately don't have a PA4X but I guess the KSC files can be loaded as samples? the PCG files will not work as such, as they are Kronos parameters - but adding a bit of reverb to the dry samples should work, if PA can load same multisample formats?

Thanks, some mappings not ideal but with limited samples from whatever collected, I hope mostly work.

Hi, I put the link after the numbered points in description - to avoid things e.g. someone wipes out the whole GG bank or something. Although this doesn't guarantee reading the information :), still I sleep a bit better at night :)

So apologies, dropbox link is at the very end below the description text

Hi thank you! All my things are on bandcamp usually (http://levente.bandcamp.com ) but can get the mp3 here:

It was done before I got the Kronos, so samples were played out from DAW mostly, plus contributions from the N5 and the Yamaha FS1R

I just tried all your sounds, Aether. Thanks again, they are great.
I've added a long reverb on some of them, with an external reverb unit, and they are fantastic !
