Ocean Swift Introduces Sound Creator Suite - tools for sound-design and instrument development
The Ultimate Sound Designer & Developer Toolkit: Sound Creator Suite Walkthrough | Ocean Swift video upload by Ocean Swift / Faxi Nadu
https://oceanswift.net/product/sound-creator-suite/
"Welcome to a complete walkthrough of the Ocean Swift - Sound Creator Suite. In this video, we take a high-level tour of the entire application, showing you not just what the tools do, but how they work in concert to provide a centralized host environment for virtual instrument developers, sample pack creators, and sound designers.
Whether you are automating hardware sampling, building custom UI components, or formatting vast preset libraries, this suite handles the heavy lifting so you can focus on the creative process.
What we cover in this walkthrough:
Global Settings & The Log Viewer: A look at the suite's foundation, including audio/MIDI routing, Kontakt developer integration , and the built-in, thread-safe Log Viewer capable of maintaining a 10,000-line history.
Audio Batch Processing & Sampling: How to recursively process thousands of audio files , mathematically align loops using MIR technology , and automate external hardware sampling via MIDI and threshold detection.
The Wavetable Ecosystem: A brief look at building wavetables from scratch with the Creator, extracting them from audio files, and converting formats across various software synthesizers.
MIDI & OSC Routing: Bridging the gap between your hardware, digital audio workstations, and modular environments like TouchDesigner.
UI Generation & NKS Workflow: From rendering 3D knobs into sprite sheets to batch-injecting metadata into Native Instruments NKS presets and standard audio samples."
Build Kontakt Instruments Faster: WYSIWYG UI Editor & Prefabs | Ocean Swift Sound Creator Suite
video upload by
"In this in-depth walkthrough, we dive into the Kontakt Performance View tool, a powerful standalone WYSIWYG editing environment within the Ocean Swift Sound Creator Suite. If you build instruments for Native Instruments Kontakt, this tool bridges the gap between technical JSON editing and intuitive visual design.We cover the entire workflow, from initial setup to complex UI layout, showing you how to design without writing a single line of layout code. What you will learn in this video:Integration & Setup: How to use the suite's settings to launch Kontakt as an isolated child process. Automated NKS Creation: Watch the tool automatically generate the strict NKS folder hierarchy and silently execute a Lua script to create your base .nki and .nkr container files. Live WYSIWYG Editing: Explore the hardware-accelerated preview canvas that provides a near 1:1 visual representation of your UI.Drag & Drop Design: See how to physically drag controls across the canvas , use grab handles for free-resizing , and utilize the alignment menu to perfectly center, top, or bottom-align multiple UI elements instantly.
Advanced Tree & Property Inspector: Learn how to manage the exact structural hierarchy of your UI. We show you how to use Alt+Click to instantly select a Panel and all nested child controls , and how to edit multiple parameters safely using the dynamic property inspector.
Instant UI Prefabs: Discover how to recursively scan your resources folder to drop complex, pre-configured .nckc UI elements directly into your project in seconds.

Moog Muse: 64 Retro Cinematic Ambient Presets. Sound Demo
video upload by Anton Anru
🌃 'Echoes Of Machines' is a collection of 64 atmospheric cinematic presets for Moog Muse.
🗂 It includes: 19 Keys, 9 Leads, 5 Pads, 9 Strings, 12 Synths, 4 Drones, and 6 Textures.
📺 The soundset draws inspiration from sci-fi movies, cinematic soundtracks, dystopian worlds, urban landscapes, retro electronica, noise ambient albums, experimental modern art, and contemporary sound design.
📼 Built around the concept of imperfection, the collection blends gritty, lo-fi textures with constantly shifting timbres shaped through deep modulation.
📦 The download link: https://antonanru.sellfy.store/p/muse...
📻 The timbral range is wide and diverse, covering dark, noisy, lo-fi, warm, deep, retro/vintage, melancholic, atmospheric, detuned, cold, distant, dull, massive, epic, bright, distorted, metallic, tense, atonal, non-harmonic, FX-like, evolving, and sweeping textures.
🎛 All patches are Velocity-sensitive. The ModWheel enhances expressiveness by adding motion and tonal variation—brightening the sound, introducing vibrato, shifting timbre, or adding extra movement for dynamic and engaging performance.
Aftertouch introduces distortion, increases sustain, or speeds up modulations.
The Macro Knob introduces additional changes—it enhances the stereo effect or detuning, adds bright overtones, or adds modulation to the filter or oscillators.

Pirin V1 for Behringer DeepMind 12D/12/6/X by NatLIfe - is a new collection of mix sounds between Melodic Techno, Trance & Ambient.
This is the complex ARP programs(inspired by Martin Roth, Ben Böhmer & Anjunadeep style) together with deep atmosphere in PAD sounds(inspired by Trilucid & Colorize style), Synth, Modular, SFX, Plucks and punching modulated Bass (inspired by Stephan Bodzin & Ben Böhmer styled).
You will not find anything similar to this collection.

10 Sequenced ARP's
3 Bass
5 Modular sounds
18 Pad patches
8 FX
2 Synth
3 SEQ
1 Pluck
I developed these sounds in a place completely remote from civilization, high in the mountains, around wild forests, fields, rivers and lakes, where nature itself told me how a synthesizer should sound.
My main goal was to make an exceptional atmosphere in one library, where I worked hard on every sound for days to make it sound exactly how it should.
