Thephonoloop has announced the availability of outlines as its latest NKS (Native Kontrol Standard) ready VI (virtual instrument) for Native Instruments’ Kontakt Player free sample player — beautifully blending raw acoustic gestures with tape loops and modular-processed tonal experiments to spark musical momentum. The sample-based instruments with the character-producing Polish two-person team’s approach to a collection of tonal variations is designed to be combined and explored, each preset being an outline of a musical idea ready to be expanded and reshaped into something larger.
Outline is a result of Thephonoloop spending some serious time gathering suitable source material — think ACOUSTIC (119 sources), MODULAR (139 sources), SYNTH (67 sources), TAPE LOOP (65 sources), VARIOUS (six sources), and many more besides, focusing on texture, detail, and contrast, creating a wide range of acoustic and synthetic sounds that can interact and form unexpected combinations.
Outlines is available to purchase at an introductory promo price of €90.00 EUR (excluding VAT), rising thereafter to its regular price of €120.00 EUR (excluding VAT), as an NKS (Native Kontrol Standard)-ready virtual instrument plug-in comprising 2,509 samples equating to a 7.81 GB download (after NCW — Native Instruments Comprised Wave — compression) with 438 presets for Native Instruments’ Kontakt Player 7.10.7 (or higher) — available for free from here:
