Quadral 3 is a high - powered sampled synthesis engine, perfect for film and game composers who desire a fast workflow without sacrificing creativity. Use 16 new groups of hand - crafted atmospheric synth pads to randomly create your next favorite electronic score. With the redesigned Ouroboros modulation engine and tempo - synced XY pad, combine quadrants to craft layered leads, iridescent ambiences, or floating textures. Each sound is carefully sculpted, enabling you to create spectacular new presets in categories like Fragmented, Sleek, and more. We've added 36 fresh wavetables and user sample import, so you can use your own WAV files as the sound basis. It comes with over 300 factory patches of Arps, Basses, etc., to kick - start your musical journey. The user interface features four quadrants, an assignable XY Pad, and an arpeggiator system. Each layer has independent sound - shaping options. Every quadrant has its own arpeggiator and 39 filter types. The XY Pad can be used in various ways, with rhythmic motion and range limits. You can set up dynamic patterns with the ARP system. The Legato feature turns it into a monophonic legato/portamento instrument. Tweak every detail or hit random for endless sound combinations. Macro knobs can modulate controls. Import your samples, mix with our sounds and wavetables. It includes over 300 lovingly - crafted factory presets, and you can save and share patches. Fire up the FX rack with dozens of DSP effects for perfect sound. This library is for Native Instruments Kontakt 6.2.2 or later. The free Kontakt Player has limited support, but you can use samples in other software.
Using Quadral 3 is easy. First, if you're starting fresh, pick one of the over 300 factory presets from the 6 categories in the Preset Browser. This will give you a good starting point for your music. If you want to get creative right away, you can hit the Random button to generate different sound combinations. You can use the four quadrants to combine different sounds. Each quadrant has its own arpeggiator and filter, so play around with the 39 built - in filter types to get the tone you like. The XY Pad is very useful. By default, it controls the volume between the 4 layers, but you can customize each axis to affect different parameters like filters or some FX options. You can also add rhythmic motion to it, which adjusts the axes in a tempo - synced way. Don't forget to limit the X and Y range to create new patterns. The ARP system allows you to set up dynamic arpeggiator, gliss, and strum patterns. You can adjust things like rhythm, direction, swing, and randomization. If you want a monophonic legato/portamento effect, use the Legato feature and adjust the pitch bend speed. The Macro knobs on the sides of the XY Pad can be assigned to change layer sound - shaping controls or FX rack plugins. For a truly unique sound, import your own WAV files using the user sample import feature. Mix these with the 16 categories of sounds and 36 wavetables. When you're happy with your patch, save it using the Preset Browser or share it with other users. To enhance your sound, open the FX rack panel and load up on DSP effects, especially the convolution reverb with over 100 custom spaces. Note that this library is designed for Native Instruments Kontakt 6.2.2 or later. The free Kontakt Player can only run it in limited 'demo mode', but you can use the sample directories in other wav - compatible software. There's no special maintenance required for this virtual library, just make sure your Kontakt software is up - to - date for the best performance.
