DARK ASCENTS

Virtual Instrument for: KONTAKT 5.8.1, KONTAKT 6.0+ *Note: full version of KONTAKT is required* - Dark Ascents is a collection of glissando violin risers recorded off the cuff with copious amounts of whiskey. Originally meant as a basic group of risers to layer into productions, they became a different animal as time went on. It is, on the surface, an instrument of violin risers and falls - however it’s highly encouraged to explore it as an instrument of chaos, especially by tweaking the Main Controls, and diving into the Glitch functions found on the Motion page. This can result in anything from unsettling pitched-down textures, chopped/glitchy madness, to tempo-synced buzzing of electric lights and horrific machinery.    Features: Build/shape a stack of violin risers with a quickness Generate pointillistic, grainy wildness with the Glitch functions Pitch and Panning set individually per-note, or globally for all Chaos is encouraged with automatable randomizat
