This page shows the available Instruments that can be used with AK. A description of the Instrument will be shown, with the included ExploreMaps below it.
You can select to see all Explore Maps by clicking on the View button in the top right hand corner.
Clicking on an ExploreMap takes you to the Explore Page.
Explore Page
Here you can browse through the ExploreMaps associated with each Instrument. It offers a non-cluttered approach to preset browsing, and lets you get a sense of what each Instrument has to offer. (All presets listed here are also available in the Preset Browser.)
The first ExploreMap is called Producer and offers processed sounds ready to go, with included controls for things like Tone and FX levels.
The second one, As Recorded, offers natural sounding presets, showcasing the different mic perspectives.
The third one, Selections, goes further and further into sonic sculpting, with more processing overall - sometimes very far from the original sound!
Each Preset has a play button which plays a preview snippet to showcase that sound.
For Instruments you don’t own, we have included audio demos of the presets, indicated with headphone icons instead of Play buttons.
