Tom Ryan the good thing about large hills is it seems to inspire said “curlage” prior to summit. Whilst I have seen many dog curls on many hills I’ve never seen one up on the summit. I’ll do my next piece halfway up as a special treat for you Tom.
For unscripted round robins, I picked "cycle random" for my coffee mug and milk pitcher one shot instruments, which come each with 3 RRs. Yes, there is a risk that the same round robin will sound twice, if not 3 times, in a row, however, in certain cases, using random may work better than using a pre-determined sequence
Very intriguing. Well done! I quite like the initial kalimba sound @4:09. It immediately brought to mind the opening bass note (and feedback) on The Beatles "I Feel Fine".
Hi... Thanks for the kind words. The DK system was not used to create this Kontakt Library. I played all the notes. The piece is a one take improv I did on the real piano this spring and captured the MIDI from the DK in Pro Tools. The demo for PB used that MIDI info to trigger Kontakt and this sample library. I had to edit some of the velocities to make it sound right. The DK System I have is a MarkIII (2000) with the DKC850 (much newer) controller and it's very good but not perfect. The newer Enspire models are light years better.
I actually really liked it after you processed the samples into the low end patch. As it's a peaky Blinder season again, I can see that kind of thing being well suited as a track lay, and especially church scenes. Would accompany well with the new organ library.
13:08 wow that low note. Especially the distorted character of the sample (must be the speaker version?) goes really well with the verb. I need to try something similar in Iris.
“Remember this?”.... Yes. I recall a supposedly relaxing camping trip in Snowdonia were one of my fellow campers incessantly banged on about how amazing the speaker was on their new phone. Needless to say they proceeded to play incoherent (due to speaker distortion) music through it for the entire trip!
The kalimba thingy is like a simpler version of the Leaf Audio Microphonic Soundbox i use for some of my videos, its cool! I like the stuff that the Soundbox has that you can bow and scratch and whatever besides the kalimba but yeah
thanks so much for all your video's i've been making my samplers in Kontakt for a while now but I think with your knowledge Spitfire would be the company to make a good working sampler. Kontakt has so mony options but it is bloated and such old school way. I hoped that with Kontakt6 things would be better, but it wasn't worth the upgrade to me. I would love for a new company taking a hack at the overall sampling idea, and I can't think of any other company more suited for that then spitfire.
Hi. Do the pianos on pianobook come with a serial? I can only play the pianos for about 10 minutes as a demo before the sound disappears from Kontakt Player. I have other Libraries from Spitfire Audio which came with a serial and these are all fine. I only use NI Kontakt player to play Spitfire Audio libraries - and to be honest that's the only reason I use NI Kontakt - just to be able to have SA libraries - and now the lovely pianos on pianobook - otherwise I wouldn't bother with it. Thanks for any help with this. Love your channel, Christian. The effort and passion you put into your vlogs is massively appreciated - and, it's energising... really, it is.
Franco Lautieri In order to avoid timeouts there are only two options, you can purchase the full version of Kontakt, or the library created can licence the library with NI. The later is very expensive and very unlikely to happen for Pianobook submissions.
@@BenTinker Thanks for your reply. So, I don't own Kontakt player then? Okay, I just checked what it costs to buy the full version... £360! I'm gob smacked! So, would I be right then, in saying that the SA libraries I own have been licensed for use with NI Kontakt Player - which is why it works (and why I also thought I owned the player)? So to play the free pianos in pianobook, I have to buy the player at £360? I'm still gob smacked. Okay, that's something I have to consider in the cold light of day. Thank you very much for enlightening me, Ben.
...just continuing from my previous comment, I've just found out that as the owner of a Spitfire Audio library, I can get the full version for £216. Okay, that's a little more comfortable - but, in my humble opinion, still a hefty price tag even if does come with 44GB of additional sounds.
Just to clarify, you do own the Player version. Only licensed player libraries and instruments will not time out in the player version. If you get the full version of Kontakt you will get no time outs at all. To make it more complicated (Komplicated?) there are licensed Kontakt player instruments and libraries, the main difference being how they show up in Kontakt (libraries show up in the Library view, instruments you have to browse to and open). Each has their own licensing fee structure paid to NI. If you are willing to wait there will almost certainly be a pretty big sale from NI in November on black Friday.
Cool. Thanks for all the info, Ben. Yeah, I might just hang on a bit on the purchase. I'm in no desperate hurry to buy into NI just for the free pianos. And I agree, Kontakt player is komplikated (I like what you did there). From a user's point of view, the way the player works, feels and looks is (IMHO again) outdated. Although, I think what SA have done to make their front end intuitive makes it okay I suppose (he says begrudgingly) ;-)
Dogs homes are choc full of beautiful furballs. No need to breed our own. Oh and the kalimba was the first instrument I sampled. Tricky getting consistent velocity layers though.
Great video. To be honest I'd love to create sample library but do not have either Logic (not available on Windows) or Kontakt with the full set of features. I am a bit at a loss as to supply what wavs? Would I pitch them up to each note and submit them? I found the explanation here a bit speedy. I have Sample One on Studio One by Presonus but seemingly that saves in their format not anything else. Any help?
Woooo! Christian Henson has used in this video my demo for pianobook project soundcloud.com/davidgomezcomino/moment. Thanks to you for this amazing project!
Love you as we do, Christian, I personally live for the day when doggie curls a big one between you and camera ...... and you don't edit it out. 👍

@@TheCrowHillCo The dogs are the best part of the videos! I mean after the loads of useful info and inspiration of course
@@TheCrowHillCo I'm guessing that might need a channel all its own... along with your own brand of poo bags?
Chris you know we love you man aint nobody skipping to 10:00 mins
OriginalOrigins it’s for me when I come back in a month having forgotten.
Christian Henson Music 😂😂
4:34 Backsliding dog!!! HILARIOUS!!!!!!

Mate, those two bass (C1?) notes at 13:08 made my ears the happiest they've been in weeks ❤
Your doggie doesn’t care about round Robbins. What a sweet pup.

Loved the kickdrum at the end! Good stuff altogether, yet again! Thanks!
These videos are amazing. I'm only joining the party but definitely motivated to start sampling some instruments.

Totally agree

I was thinking about round robins some days ago! I wondered how it works:P Gotta watch the whole video now:P
Oscar is having a blast at 4:40
Yet another great video. Love what you do and how you do it. :)
Ouff, the faces on the play trough is worth the watch through alone!
Beautiful Muted Yamaha C7 sampled by Pete Calandra.

How to disable (control) for every library?
Nice tune at the open. HA.....:)
Just to be sure, what's the deadline of the competition? The day is missing on the description..

Nice!
Wish I could submit this as an Omnisphere patch.
For queen's bottom sake, put a round robin on/off switch on Labs! I need it off for the piano!
Captain Voluntaryist, The Statist Slayer You’ve got me curious now, why would you want to turn it off?
@@BenTinker
to use the piano on some house jam. plus I'd rather randomize sounds myself. Plus I HATE the off timing brought on by the round robin.
What you made sounds like the start to a trap song
