Realitone Nightfall [KONTAKT]

Built from the raw recordings of our acclaimed Sunset Strings instrument, NIGHTFALL shares its high quality, organic, and cinematic sound qualities – presented in an enjoyable and easy-to-use interface.

It’s an organic string ensemble… evolved!

A collection of unique sustains, drones, textures, soundscapes, shorts, signatures, sound design effects, repetitions, pulses and loops, combined with our flexible 2-layer blending system and intuitive effects controls makes NIGHTFALL a versatile instrument to give you an original sonic advantage.

“WHAT’S THE BIG DEAL?”

We started with high quality sounds – sustains, textures, soundscapes… – many of which can tell a story by themselves, and with only a single note.

To enhance the sonic flexibility, we incorporated our 2-layer articulation blending system with different blend modes, opening up an extra dimension of expressive and sound shaping possibilities.

Each layer has an array of useful effects, right there and ready to go. No need to feel like you’re navigating a spaceship’s dashboard just to find one effect.

Additionally, each effect can be linked to the Modwheel, adding yet another dimension of expressiveness and power in your hands.

Combine all of the above with the “Expression” button – a way to enhance dynamics with volume -and your modwheel becomes a conduit of creative expression.

With an instrument so powerful and fun to play, you’ll want BOTH your hands on the keys, so turn on the Automatic Modwheel feature, play what your heart desires, and let Nightfall take care of the rest!

The organic shorts are processed to be production-ready, yet maintain the natural and organic quality of a string section.

But we knew we could push our samples even further, and created a versatile toolkit of hybrid shorts, evolved from real string performances.

Reverse Effects are perfect for adding interest to a piece and transitioning from one section to the next.

From blockbuster ostinatos to delicate whisps and shimmers, the shorts category has you covered.

Not quite a short, and not quite a sustain, but full to the brim with attitude and character.

Often referred to as “trailer sounds”, these articulations work perfectly as a featured sound or “hook”, with a generous helping of transitional effects and bends.
