THIS TRAILER’S MUSIC MADE EXCLUSIVELY WITH CONTINUO

18 Instrument Modules

12 Extra-Long Guitar Patches

6 Hojave Guitars: Raw, almost cello sounding patches with a lot of fortuitousness and life for creating intimate textures or to enhance realism (as an additional layer).
6 Badlands Guitars: Straight, edgy and sometimes organ-like sounding patches for creating sharper or epic soundscapes
Techniques: Bowed, tremolos, vibratos, beaten (with a wooden stick), driven patches

4 Super-Large Texture Patches

Open, huge and spacey patches for creating ethereal or even symphonic orchestra sounding textures when mixing with other patches.
Straight, super long reverbs created with several eurorack modules, Eventide and Strymon pedals.

Extreme Timestrech & Synth Sublayer

Additional patches for extra coloring options including a 300x Stretched Bowed Guitar patch and Moog Subsequent37 Taped Synth patch

GUI Features

Meet our latest Layer Designer Engine: a powerful tool for composers, music producers who are seeking for instant inspiration and extremely easy workflows on the fly:

Inspiring, super clean interface right out of the box.
Need more controls? Under the hood you get more than 80+ smarty adjusted control options!

With the new engine you can run up to 4 Sound Modules at the same time. Also you can add effects and modulations individually on these Sound Modules.

Every Slot comes with 4 EQ, 2 vintage effects (Slow Leslie rotator & a Classic Phaser) and 2 Lexicon-style reverb sends.
The combinations of these controls can surpise you with some very insteresting new textures.

Turn your sound into pulses or create a super complex moving soundscape combining the settings on the 4 Slots.
Choose from 8 different LFO presets from fast to slow automatically synced to your DAW’s / Kontakt master clock.

Add a final touch or go extreme with the Master Section: an SSL Style Channel EQ, Glue Compressor & a Master Limiter. Thanks to the high quality recordings changing these parameters (especially the EQ settings) can dramatically change your overall sound. Pimp up your textures, add some extra edge, brillance, fatness with these rich sounding features at the final stage.

In Collaboration With IAMYANK

Continuo is created in collaboration with the multi-instrumentalist producer / songwriter Iamyank who keeps building up memorable scenes around the audience with futuristic synths, spacey guitar and dirty drums on the edge of instrumental and electronic music.

Sound library is good. Installation is possibly the worst I have ever experienced. I am a solutions architecture consultant with over 30 years of experience. I have worked for over 50 clients in over 30 industries and I have seen the full gamut of bad to good in all aspects of software. Karanyi has perhaps the worst, most inconsistent mess of installation approaches, poor, incomplete and incorrect documentation, many, many manual steps and many, many places to get things wrong that I have ever witnessed. Over that last month or two, I have purchased a number of Karanyi products and each time I download and work through the byzantine installation process and witness that each installation process is unique and undocumented and sometimes wrong, I begin to question my sanity for purchasing yet another package of pain. If the sounds were not as good as they are, I would've given up a long time ago. I have, however, reached my limit. No more Karanyi Sounds products until this installation nightmare is cleaned up and turned into something that no longer looks like it was created by someone who is creating software for the very first time. I am sorry for the harsh words, but Karanyi is losing business because of this hot mess.

I haven't tested it yet, though you have sent me one mail every day since I bought the product. I hate getting spammed, you never asked for that number of e-mails. Go away!
