About

Step into a world of mesmerizing harmonics, tonal warmth, and resonant mystique. Panacea brings together eight of our most inspiring tuned percussion libraries — a journey across the musical spectrum of steel tongue drums, handpans, kalimbas, and ancient slit drums. From the Sierra foothills to underground bunkers, each instrument was lovingly recorded in rich detail to give you an unparalleled sonic canvas. Ideal for ambient, cinematic, world, underscore, electronic, and hybrid compositions, this 25 GB library is packed with 168 presets made for NKS and the free Kontakt 8 Player. Discover the sound of soul, steel, and space with Panacea. Hapi Drums, Cosmic Hand Pans, UFO Tone, Steel Tones, Kalimba, Whale Drum, Tiny Thumb Pianos, and Lenguita Drum each have custom sonic character, perfect for blending together or doubling a melody. Panacea includes everything you need to compose your best work ever, with an efficient modular 4-layer GUI for instant inspiration.

The Kontakt interface includes a suite of automation-ready sound-shaping controls to give you total creative flexibility. You have control over swell, attack, release, offset, vibrato, filter, pitch (coarse & fine), articulation switching, cross-fading and layering, and so much more. We've also included unique sound-designed custom FX presets to give you lots of creative options. This library comes with an adaptable LFO system, with selectable LFO shape, modulation target parameter, speed, intensity, tempo-syncing and fade-in time. You can also apply your choice of 12 lowpass, high-pass and FX filters, with assignable modulation targets such as velocity, modwheel, expression, after-touch, key position and step-sequencer table control. Our customizable arpeggiator offers a velocity table and control over arp direction, timing, swing, randomization and duration. We’ve included a key and scale lock system to constrain your notes to common scales and keys for easy melodic composition and live performance. The interface is rounded-out by our modular FX rack panel, with 27 different DSP effect modules that you can assign in any of e8 available slots, in any order that you wish. You’ll find classic phaser, flanger, delay, distortion, amp and cab simulators, compressors, EQ, rotator and so much more. The Reverb effect includes our favorite convolution reverb impulse responses, including 99 different rooms, halls, chambers and outdoor environments, plus another 40 custom FX impulses to radically transform the sound and open up whole new worlds of musical possibility. We’ve added a great bank of FX rack chain factory presets to get you started!
