Iron Pack 10 is a unique animal vocalization, sound designed library recorded with a pair of mating Galapagos Tortoises. It includes 4 dynamic layers and up to 8 round-robin, and 33 unique evolving ambiences, atmospheric textures, drones and pads.
The Iron Pack series is a line of compact, affordable, unique and great-sounding virtual instrument libraries for Kontakt and universal SFZ formats.Iron Pack 10 is a rather unique creation. We went to an exotic animal sanctuary near Austin, Texas, to record a pair of rare Galapagos Tortoise mating calls. They went at it in slow motion for hours. These playable vocalizations come with 4 dynamic layers and up to 8 round-robin. They sound especially beefy when pitched down, making this library great material for creature sfx. We also created a great selection of ambient pads, leads and atmospheres by warping the natural source recordings. The result is 33 unique musical ambiences, atmospheric textures, drones and pads. This 599 MB library for Kontakt and SFZ includes 106 standard pcm wav samples that can be used in any wav-compatible environment.
This library is designed for the full retail version of Native Instruments Kontakt 5.5 or later. Kontakt is an industry-standard advanced virtual instrument software platform. Check out screenshots of our custom graphical user interface for Kontakt in the image gallery above. They provide a wide range of sound shaping parameter controls, each one totally automation-ready in your host environment or Kontakt’s stand-alone mode.
This is a standard Kontakt open-format library, so the free Kontakt Player does not fully support it and can only run it in a limited “demo mode”. However, the sample directories are unlocked so you can use them in other wav-compatible software, sampler and synth formats. The special Libraries tab doesn’t support this open-format Kontakt library, but you can use the standard File browser tab, or import this library into the Kontakt database and Quickload tools for easy navigation, loading and organization.
If you’d like to use the sounds in these Iron Pack libraries in other synths and samplers outside of Kontakt, or you do not yet own the full version of Kontakt, you can still enjoy using all of the content and many of the main control features. We’ve included universal sfz presets. These open-format presets can be imported into any sfz opcode spec 2.0 compliant soft-synth or sampler engine.
There are many SFZ-compatible VST, AU and AAX Plugin engines to choose from. If you’d like an easy to use sampler plugin that can load these presets with a full-featured GUI, we highly recommend the free Sforzando player by Plogue. We’ve optimized these presets to let you experience the full range of features we’ve included in our SFZ presets for this library. Sforzando is compatible with vst, au and rtas plugin format standards. It’s available for Mac OSX 10.6 and up and Windows XP and up.
