Murst Instruments Stone v1.1 [KONTAKT]

Stone
A collection of 16 instruments grouped together by texture and timbre, lovingly recorded and processed to eke out unique qualities. Aimed at film, media and theater composers, the tool-sets featured in Stone are immediate to use and experiment with.

The 4 layered banks in Stone are akin to a composer toolkit that is immediate to use and adapt. Sculpting the sound with the built in effects processing allows you to add character or create something more experimental. Above is a video playlist of examples from composer Derek Kirkup.

Banks

- Oscillate // is a collection of deep analogue basses sampled from vintage and modular synthesizers processed through a germanium fuzz
- Pivot // sustained Cello bow, unstructured Cello phrases, granular Cello and Organ fuzz. Recorded close mic for an intimate capture of the bow texture and body resonance
- Fluctuate // features hammer, mallets and plucked sounds processed on a Uher tape machine
- Grain // completes the sonic layering with a quirky selection of noise/recorded samples for depth in your sound design
