Product Details
There’s a surprising amount of expression packed into this little free-reed instrument’s simple and inviting keyboard.
While the melodica is capable of a myriad of musical styles, our favorite use of the instrument is within indie rock/folk. Whether it’s chordal swells during a chorus or lyrical phrases between verses, the melodica adds a unique, sweet texture in a small form factor.
Key Features
- Three octave natural playable range, extended to fill the entire keyboard.
- Phase locked samples for seamless morphing between three dynamic layers.
- Two mics to choose between for different tonal colorations.
- Realistic dynamic thinning when playing multiple notes.
Indie Melodica licenses Native Instruments' Kontakt Player sampler software. Consequently, owning the full version of Kontakt is not necessary, and Indie Melodica operates without limitations within the free Kontakt Player application/plugin. This also allows the sample library to be listed in the libraries tab in Kontakt for convenient access.
Indie Melodica is NKS-ready. The integration with the Native Kontrol Standard presents many benefits, both when using the library in the Komplete Kontrol software as well as in conjunction with Komplete Kontrol hardware, such as the Komplete Kontrol S-Series keyboards and Maschine.
In addition to Indie Melodica being displayed in the Native Browser among your other Komplete Kontrol instruments, there are a variety of other benefits. For example, thanks to Native Instruments’ Native Map® technology, you can control the library’s various parameters directly through connected hardware right out of the box. Furthermore, the keyswitches and key ranges are shown using Light Guide, an innovative technology that displays the key colors directly on your Komplete Kontrol S-Series keyboard.
We recommend using Indie Melodica with a Komplete Kontrol S-Series keyboard for the full experience. While not a requirement, you will be able to take advantage of the Native Kontrol Standard for an intuitive connection between software instruments and hardware.
