Moonkits: How To Re-map for e-drums

Moonkits: How To Re-map for e-drums

By Soniccouture  |  12.11.2019

We’ve had lots of requests to remap Moonkits, for use with e-drums and other trigger systems.

We weren’t able to include a remapping system in the instrument because of the differing articulations across instrument groups, but there is an easy way to fix this using Multi-scripts…

  1. Kontakt includes a handy multi-script for exactly this purpose, and it’s not scary. Go to the top bit of Kontakt, where it says ‘Multi-rack : New (Default)’, and click the ‘KSP’ button to the right.

2.  You’ll see a grey panel appear. A bit scary, but you’re going to power through this. At the left edge of the panel you’ll see some buttons, click on the ‘Preset’ button, and Go to Factory > Transform > Change Keys

3. You’ll see the script panel appear. Here you can simply change which incoming key triggers which Kontakt note. simple, right?

4. You can now save this Multi you’ve created as a multi preset: File Menu >Save Multi As, and recall it whenever you need.

Coming In 2019

Coming In 2019

By James Thompson  |  06.01.2019

A happy new year to all our users. I’d like to tell you about what we have planned this year at Soniccouture..

Read More

The first new release of 2018 will be: Sheng Sho Khaen, featuring three different Asian mouth-organ type wind instruments.

Following that will be a major update to The Attic adding 8 new instruments sampled from rare vintage pieces, including: Minitmoog, Crumar DP-80, Logan Vocalist, Siel Orchestra 2, Apr Omni 2, Cheetah MS-800.

We have a new drum product, Moonkits – a collection of brushed drums with quirky and unusual setups. This will probably see the light of day in the summer.

Also in production is an atmospheric recording of a large church organ, recorded in the famous ambience of All Saints church in Tooting, London. This was a preferred recording venue for Sony Classical for many years in the 1980s and 90s.
