KONTAKT – 2,75 GB
不断演变的声音景观与梦幻合成器
《形态进化》（Morphology Evolved）是备受赞誉的《形态》（Morphology）音源库的下一代产品，专为Kontakt 8完整版中的全新Orbita引擎量身打造，成为一款强大的乐器。该音源库基于电子音乐先驱伊恩·博迪（Ian Boddy）创作的3.11GB原始录音档案构建，将这一广受好评的声音集合转化为一个深度交互的合成环境。
尽管原始录音仍是其核心，但《形态进化》引入了全新的合成架构、现代效果处理以及专为当代作曲家和声音设计师设计的表现力丰富的形态变换系统。
《形态》最初为作曲家们展现了一个充满漂浮质感与梦幻电子氛围的世界。而《形态进化》则将这一声音遗产拓展为一款现代乐器，融合了经典合成传承与当代波形表技术、形态变换演奏控制以及强大的声音设计工具。
快照预设
《形态进化》包含100个全新设计的快照预设，分为四个直观类别，突出展示该乐器声音能力的不同方面：
- 演变质感：专为持续并随时间逐渐发展而设计。利用分层音源、调制和形态变换面板，这些预设创造出从黑暗氛围到广阔声音景观的动态变化氛围。
- 音垫与合成器：一系列丰富的音垫和经典合成器声音，包括模拟风格音色、主音、贝斯以及适合旋律创作与和声支持的分层合成器质感。
- 声音设计：结合采样质感与波形表合成，这些预设创造出非同寻常的音色、抽象氛围以及电影级声音背景，为作品增添个性与张力。
- 波形表：完全使用合成器层创建，这些预设通过数字效果、表现力丰富的合成器音色以及合成乐器风格声音，展示了波形表引擎的魅力。
为动态而生
《形态进化》的核心是一款定制波形表合成器，由Ocean Swift Synthesis的OSS波形表创建器创建的定制波形表驱动。合成器层可以强化音垫的音调中心，引入节奏调制，或在原始采样质感之上添加闪烁的高频内容。
这种混合方法将录制声音的有机深度与现代合成的表现力灵活性相结合，实现了随时间持续变化的复杂音调动态。
制作与原始录音
《形态进化》基于使用大量模拟与数字乐器、实验性音源以及专业工作室处理技术创建的丰富录音档案构建。这些录音构成了音源库的基础，提供了定义《形态》声音的有机特质与音景深度。
制作过程中使用的模拟乐器包括Analogue Solutions、Analogue Systems和Doepfer的模块化系统，以及经典合成器如Minimoog、Roland System-100M和EMS VCS-3。
包含内容
- 全新Orbita引擎：我们的全新Orbita引擎，提供三个采样层与强大的波形表合成器，以创建丰富的混合声音。
- 广泛原始音源库：访问所有301个原始《形态》采样，包括梦幻合成器质感、氛围与声音景观。

EVOLVING SOUNDSCAPES & DREAM SYNTHS
Morphology Evolved is the next generation of the acclaimed Morphology library, reimagined as a powerful instrument for our brand new Orbita Engine within the full version of Kontakt 8. Built upon a 3.11GB archive of original recordings created by electronic music pioneer Ian Boddy, Morphology Evolved transforms this celebrated sound collection into a deeply interactive synthesis environment.
While the original recordings remain at its core, Morphology Evolved introduces an entirely new synthesis architecture, modern effects processing and an expressive morphing system designed for today’s composers and sound designers.
Morphology originally introduced composers to a world of floating textures and dreamlike electronic atmospheres. Morphology Evolved takes that sonic legacy and expands it into a modern instrument, combining classic synthesis heritage with contemporary wavetable technology, morphing performance control and powerful sound design tools.
SNAPSHOT PRESETS
Morphology Evolved includes 100 newly designed snapshots, organised into four intuitive categories that highlight different aspects of the instrument’s sonic capabilities:
– Evolving Textures: Designed to be sustained and gradually develop over time. Using layered sources, modulation, and the Morph Pad, these patches create shifting atmospheres ranging from dark ambiences to expansive soundscapes.
– Pads & Synths: A collection of rich pads and classic synthesizer sounds, including analogue-style tones, leads, basses and layered synth textures suited for melodic writing and harmonic support.
– Sound Design: Combining sampled textures with wavetable synthesis, these presets create unusual timbres, abstract atmospheres and cinematic sound beds ideal for adding character and tension.
– Wavetables: Created entirely using the synth layer, these presets showcase the wavetable engine with digital effects, expressive synth tones and synthesised instrument-style sounds.
BUILT FOR MOVEMENT
At the heart of Morphology Evolved lies a custom wavetable synthesizer, powered by bespoke wavetables created using the OSS Wavetable Creator by Ocean Swift Synthesis. The synth layer can reinforce the tonal centre of a pad, introduce rhythmic modulation, or add shimmering high-frequency content above the original sampled textures.
This hybrid approach blends the organic depth of recorded sound with the expressive flexibility of modern synthesis, enabling complex tonal movement that continuously transforms over time.
PRODUCTION & SOURCE RECORDINGS
Morphology Evolved is built from a rich archive of recordings created using an extensive collection of analogue and digital instruments, experimental sources and professional studio processing. These recordings form the foundation of the library and provide the organic character and sonic depth that define the Morphology sound.
Analogue instruments used in the sessions include modular systems from Analogue Solutions, Analogue Systems and Doepfer, alongside classic synthesizers such as the Minimoog, the Roland System-100M and the EMS VCS-3.
What’s Included?
– New Orbita Engine: Our brand new Orbita Engine, offering three sample layers with a powerful wavetable synthesizer to create rich hybrid sounds.
– Extensive Source Library: Access to all 301 original Morphology samples featuring dreamlike synth textures, atmospheres, and soundscapes.
– Custom Snapshots: 100 curated snapshot presets, offering you an entirely new way of using the original samples.
– Kontakt 8 Wavetable Synth: Design evolving synth tones using 30 wavetables and advanced synthesis controls.
– Morph Pad Blending: Seamlessly blend between all four sound sources using an expressive XY Morph Pad.
– Layer-Based Sound Design: Shape each sample layer independently with filters, tuning, panning, modulation, and effects.
– Flexible Effects Routing: Combine per-layer effects, creative master processing, and delay/reverb sends for detailed sound shaping.
IMPORTANT: Fathom requires the full version of Kontakt 8.3.0!
It will NOT work in the FREE Kontakt Player.
