== OFFICIAL DESCRIPTION ==
This new KORE SOUNDPACK is a fresh and exciting exploration of the world of sound. Combining curious and engaging sampled material with advanced processing in KORE, ABSYNTH, and other sound engines included in KORE and KORE PLAYER, this pack contains 100 completely original yet highly playable instruments that will resonate with modern musicians and sound designers.

ACOUSTIC REFRACTIONS draws inspiration from many idiosyncratic sources, as well as everyday objects and circumstances. Their transformation into playable instruments is a triumph of imagination, creativity and advanced programming. Beautifully sampled from such diverse sources as ice instruments, spinning washing machines, traffic on the Golden Gate Bridge, carpets being ripped, underground parking garages, and rain on a car windshield; ACOUSTIC REFRACTIONS is a celebration of refreshingly off-kilter sound design.




Jeremiah Savage, this pack's creator, is an experienced musician and sound designer, and the founder of echoexist. His approach to sound, and particularly the idea of greater flexibility and exaggeration of acoustic sound by electronic means, is the root of the ACOUSTIC REFRACTIONS pack. Below, Jeremiah describes some of the inspirations behind particular sounds.




Processed using KONTAKT, many of the sounds have distinctly fast attacks, which then flow into atmospheric, fluid sounds via processing in ABSYNTH, KORE, and other audio engines. Utilizing the morphing features of KORE 2 or KORE PLAYER, it is also simple to create radically distinct sound variations from the same intriguing source.

  • FL Studio loads every Kore sound just fine. I own nearly all of the Kore libraries and not one has loaded incorrectly.

    FL Studio is just like any other host: you get out what you put in. If you cannot compose music, no host will magically make you sound "professional."

  • Torley is THE MAN

  • NI just discontinued this Kore system and Soundpacks, suddenly, with no warning. Future products like Komplete 8 won't be compatible. They still haven't notified the owners after 3 wks.

    Look for NI to dump other products in their line also.

    NI is extremely disorganized and jumps from one fad to the other. They don't care about their customers at all.

  • All you FL studio pussys, real men use Ableton Live!

  • hah this was really entertaining :D i got this acoustic refractions with "komplete" and i think i overlooked it. these sound really good. i love that music box! this is annoying me now cuz i just cant remember where that tune is from at 3:10 but i definitely recognize it...the only thing that comes to mind is final fantasy for some reason

  • Wow. From Massive, to Kore, to Traktor... jesus.  NI is just the bomb.

  • 5:44 - 5:57

    This is soooo sweet.

    And by the way we say "bass" in the way you did it in Poland. :)

  • You play awesome, but you suck at morphing the sounds lol. That's not a hate comment. I'm jealous of your chops!
