Preset Concepts:
“INIT_Clarinet Textures.nki” Is a start-from-scratch patch from which all presets were
created.
INFINITE PADS: These presets have a much more experimental approach.
INFINITE DRONES: Geared towards a single sustained note evolution that never feels static.
CORRELATED: The Theory of our universe is the foundation for the Infinite Motion Engine™. This is a
concept on how something can exist acoustically in two different places, but still be a part of the same
source and generate something entirely new and intricate.
ALTERNATES: Offers a convenient reference to all corresponding alternative performances.
PULSES: Creates a pulsing or swelling sound using our LFO component. A great tool for
enhancing your compositions’ dynamic range and movement.
MULTIS: Various presets have been mixed in unusual and experimental ways to create these multi
patches. You can experiment with countless combinations and ideas.
SWELLS: The ADSR parameters can create crescendos and decrescendos in music. Increase the attack
parameter for a crescendo, and increase the release and decay parameters while setting the sustain value
to zero for a decrescendo. These parameters shape the dynamic range and add emotion to compositions.
EXPERIMENTS: This concept transcends the boundaries of imagination, propelling the engine to
unfathomable heights
