KONTAKT - 28,77 GB
Imagine having the power to terrify, thrill or uplift your listeners in just a few seconds…

DRONAR Master Edition is the flagship virtual instrument of Gothic Instruments’ hugely popular and award winning DRONAR series of atmospheric sound creation tools.

Developed for Native Instruments' free Kontakt Player, the 30GB (50GB uncompressed) Master Edition combines all the raw audio and 2,000+ presets from the first eight critically-acclaimed DRONAR modules into one huge beast of an instrument plug-in.

Ideal for creating dark and chilling soundscapes as well as uplifting ethereal and ambient music, the DRONAR Master Edition makes it easy to create and play highly expressive pads, patterns, textures and atmospheres for any genre.


Key Features
- Developed for the free Kontakt Player
- 30GB (50GB uncompressed) sounds
- 2,068 presets
- Sounds derived from the first 8 DRONAR modules
- Mix and match raw audio for millions of combinations
- Create rich atmospheres, textures, pads and soundscapes
- Sound sources range from strings, synths, brass, metal, glass, found objects and more
- Perfect for composers and sound designers, highly useful for anyone requiring pads and atmospheres for their music
- Simple to use but offers opportunity to dive deeper with extensive features
- 7 pages of controls – Main, Sounds, Rhythm Editor, Arpeggiator, LFO and FX, Expert, Master FX
- NKS compatible
- New engine for faster loading

How does it work?
Create rich and dramatic atmospheres from a very small number of notes played. DRONAR automatically spreads out the chord in the mid-range, adds a root bass note, a high note and then adds evolving sound effects. The eight simultaneous different sounds are then animated with LFOs, a rhythm sequencer and arpeggiators to bring them to life.

What’s more, this sonic complexity from one hand frees up the other to expressively control dials with mouse drags or external MIDI controller knobs, and record the changes as a performance in your DAW.
Requirements: KONTAKT version 5.8 or higher

What makes the Master Edition different from the DRONAR Modules?

Combining the existing eight DRONAR modules (Hybrid, Guitarscapes, Live Strings, Dark Synthesis, Cinematic Atmospheres, Vintage Synth, Brass and Metal & Glass) in one instrument means that each preset (layered live from 8 different sounds) can now mix and match thousands of raw sounds from any of the modules into endless new combinations. It’s a vast playground covering a wide range of instruments and sonic terrains waiting to be explored.

Q: "I already own 9 Dronars and I was wondering if the Master Edition will contain all existing Dronar Kontakt libraries, or do you still need to buy them separately?"

A: The Master Edition contains the samples from all of the existing Dronar modules except Glitchscapes, so there is no need to buy 'Master Edition' versions of all the existing modules.

fantastic sounds, thanks a lot, Talula.
Unfortunately after playing a few of patches the signal is muted and i have to close and reopen kontakt. it happens everytime.

That only happens with this dronar thing, or all the other kontakt libraries ?

This is great - Thanks a lot Talula - Its great having these together in a library that can be 'Added' and appears in Maschine, etc.
My only concern / question that I hope someone can answer is has something from each of the individual libraries been removed from this compilation master version?
As all the individual libraries together are 45.9 GB and this is only 28.7 GB. Thats a big difference, does anyone know way?

Read above, this is 50GB uncompressed. So it looks about right.

My only big disappointment with Dronar is the very high CPU spiking in their VSTs (in my FL Studio 20 anyway); I cannot play more than one key together with another key before the thing hits 100% CPU!)
When I get this one, I'll be able to create something

Yes, thanks, I did get that there was compression (and you may be correct in this aspect) but these are the 2 disk footprints uncompressed, so is it possible that they just discovered compression, as if not the individual Dronars would have compression too and therefore would themselves collectively have a even larger uncompressed value than the 45.9 GB that I stated above. But until I notice anything missing, I will be happy in the knowledge that compression is king :)
(but will keep the individuals on a backup disk for a while, ha, ha)

Really a nice addition to both existing Dronars and libraries in the same "category".
The only issue I have is after playing with the pads it gets muted. Perhaps a bug or just at my end...

At this point I’m droned out. After a while drones get so boring because you just sit there holding one note. The company should seriously consider going in a different direction. You don’t need 30 to 50 gb of drones.

So what's up guys, is DRONAR Master Edition working?

I'm asking 'cos I'm noticing that some users are reporting problems...

And that's if you can play more than one key at the same time without blowing up your DAW...or is it just me who get's very hight CPU on Dronar stuff? And is there something I can do about it? I can probably answer my own question: first get a more powerful processor and second, realise that each single key press in the Dronar instruments is actually already playing around 6 notes(?) by itself. I googled around and found that high CPU in Dronar is a very common problem.
When I get this one, I'll be able to create something
