The Obscene Beauty of Arkhis

[@afti03]

These vibes are all therapeutic in some way, really neat sounding atmospheres, well done man!

[@IridescentPheasant]

I'm a huge sucker for simple, thought out UI and UX. On the one to 10 scale this is TASTY.

[@64_bit80]

9:10 is genuinely one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard

[@Takato2527]

I love the "Burning Orchestra" Preset. It makes mixing Christmas songs a lot more sublime than I expected, and I used it for my Feliz Navidad remix.

[@rrrobart9]

Lmfao! “Starship Attenborough”... awesome. Arkhis sounds so gorgeous it’s making me emotional.

[@DJVIESTA1]

Yessss, been waiting for you to cover Arkhis, thanks Jeremy!

[@schmohawk777]

I could listen to these all day, ‘A World of Woodwinds’ is so beautiful. I can see how easy it would be to get lost in this plugin.

[@MickBenjamins]

Nice to see you discovered Arkhis! So many amazing tones to be found in there

[@kevincourcey813]

Nice to hear someone else who gets all the endorphins flowing just by listening to these sounds. Great video. Yes, I have to get this.

[@Heldproductions]

I'm already looking forward to the update, or version 2 of this!

[@IntimateNoise]

Arkhis is crazy good! Awesome video in general man

[@Harrysound]

Friend asked me to make some music for her project. I did a rambling piece of nonsense we both laughed at then decided to try again, accedently came across this via Komplete Kontrol , tried a couple of presets and laid down 4 repeating chords. Bang, 10 minutes later along with some cello and violin. I was done

[@pongtrometer]

WONDERFUL...much thanks to great musicians , giving us superb palettes to curate from. Gr8 overview and application as usual Jeremy . Love your sense of innovation.

[@AndriSoren]

I can confirm this is a shortcut to sounding Icelandic - lovely walkthrough Jeremy

[@BenODen]

12:14 had to go shut the house down. Lock doors, turn off lights, chase the cats off the counters, you know... And what echoed through my head? A layer of percussion on top of this, please please be there!? Timpani rolls, Slaps, wood block clock type emphasis. This comes close to the orchestra instrument where you build all the layers of the orchestra, directing the sway between the sections. It will come and be glorious fun. Take Bach string section, layer on top of Mozart woodwinds, mold both to be a grand third creation.

[@peladoclaus]

Thanks for sharing another awesome thing to youtube. For someone that isn't a composer. You sure do make some amazing music.

[@DavinzzieMusic]

Amazing sounding instrument, I love the simple and non distracting interface a lot too! I hope that shot didn’t effect your brain too much, because your brain is the main part why I love your channel. I hope you will recover soon. Take care!

[@jimmac]

18:18 I should have not sipped tea at that very moment.

[@robtriton]

😂😂😂😂

[@montazownianr1]

So it wasn't a fart? What a shame 😒

[@jocomend]

it is beautiful because it composes for you, unless you use little and create on top of it, but it has so much stuff going on always, you will feel overwhelmed and just listen...

[@al_wombat]

Beautiful. Thank you.

Well done on your Attenborough imitation!!!!

[@benxylomusic]

This plus Spitfire's Albion Neo would be sooo nice!

[@surrogatemarker]

A cinematic video soundtrack generator !!

[@ricobenavides]

Wow, what a sound!

[@polarisnvega]

Easily one of my favorite instruments these days.

[@r.e.d.62]

Oh, I'm getting strong John Adams vibes here...and that is a very good thing indeed...Thank you for sharing

[@marcussmithereens-smithert5409]

No better video to wake up to in the morning.

[@itsmeth3c10ud]

Amazing!

[@mustyshagcarpet]

I hope you make a part 2 where you show how you implement these samples in your jams!

[@RedMeansRecording]

I need to!

[@pickledego]

Me too! 🙂

[@tiestolqa146]

[@synthesauriov3195]

Sold. Great demo, NI should give you an affiliate link!

[@nkozi]

It's sick that you made a video on this - I've had it for a few months and it's become a secret weapon of mine - One of Two Kontakt libraries that I was ready and willing to throw down cash for (though at some point I'll pick up something from Slate + Ash)

[@MahlenMorris]

Cycles! Do it.

[@RedMeansRecording]

What's the other one you got?

[@enensis]

Very cool. It's like every Sci fi movie soundtrack ever

[@ToreGThomassen]

The most inspiring instrument on my computer

[@SarahMaywalt]

Got your second shot? Well then... Welcome to the post-apocalypse!

[@TheVleckChannel]

And this is why I paid the extra money to go from Komplete 13 Ultimate to the Collector's Edition, and why I spent an extra 20 hours of my free time working for that money.

[@Limbiclesion]

Hey great review of a wonderful instrument .... I checked with Sir Richard and he said your motif was dope 🤣🤣🤣🙏🙏🏿🎩👍🦄

[@ZeroHp-]

This is the cardinal sin of edm

[@TerenceKearns]

Check out the OMEN kontakt instrument while it is still introductory price from "Silence & other sounds". It's real tribal vocals and chants etc including Mongol throat singing.

[@RedMeansRecording]

Ooooh

[@IKARIking67]

The Arkhis tonic and a 5th, is definately smoother than a 5th of Tonic! Thanks for the review, I'm gonna go pick it up.

[@transforminggravity15626]

Sounds amazing 💯💯💯😎✌️

[@LosPompadores]

Ah! That's how they make all the Danish TV noir series music

[@stephenswope3346]

Beaut! I'm wondering how this compares to the Output products, winds, brass, strings etc

[@gay_milhouse1160]

This reminds me of the Wavestate. Really rad!

[@BinauralBae]

God that jump fart

[@TimeLemur6]

Same here. Laying on the couch with a rather unpleasant headache. 🙃

[@angeloboltini]

Sooooo I quite liked the idea of blending between a few sounds based on mod wheel position and thought it'd be quite easy to do in Max for Live. So if anyone's interested, here's a quick device: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1yJTFDKWtTUdRdqqLO23yxhJOIv77VTpL?usp=sharing I'll probably make a video on it soon, but the basic gist is: put it on 3 chains in an instrument rack or 3 audio tracks, choose the right layer from the drop down menu and you should be good to go :)

[@actualhyena]

"Servo, check it out! It's my new new-age Yanni lick!"

[@fluffycritter]

Oh wow, this sounds absolutely amazing. I'm going to have to watch out for NI putting it on sale. Either that or figure out how to replicate this with the plethora of instruments I already have.

[@ben_burnes]

I think their 50% sale usually happens around late June.

[@fluffycritter]

@@ben_burnes Ah, I didn't know they did a summer sale. Usually I wait for Black Friday Month.

[@user-rx3xl7zn1u]

What is this "modular system" you referred to at 23:09?

[@SeleDreams]

ngl a lot of these instruments are included in komplete but i'm not sure to understand the point when we can't really play the notes we want with them at least for full music composition and not ambient stuff

[@RedMeansRecording]

It's a slightly different way of looking at an instrument I guess. I mean bjork used an entire preset sequence from the wavestation as the main hook so whatever works.

[@xyzyzx1253]

Loving this Bob Ross style music content Lol

[@dirka4520]

Does anyone know a similar library that creates happy/uplifting textures like Arkhis? THANKS a lot!

[@nothingtoseehere_]

Really having to force myself not to buy the Collector's Edition, but i might cave

[@va941]

Have you tried LORES yet?😉👍

[@elkinsmedia]

Starship Attenborough! Beam Me Up.

[@dwpix]

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I am a total newbie...You mentioned taking Arkhis into "Modular". What is this "Modular" you mentioned? Is it a modular hardware synth?

[@RedMeansRecording]

Modular hardware samplers. I did a video on this using morphagene

[@sunnyschramm9650]

sadly you can just layer on top like 1 plus 2 plus 3 - and not with an smaller custom set area freely morphing throw the layers like in heavyocity novo, forzo, vento, mosaic series, etc.

[@stuartwilson5827]

This is a standalone program right?

[@RedMeansRecording]

It runs in native instruments kontakt, as do a ton of other amazing sampled instruments

[@katlegotladi2116]

The company that made this has confirmed that they will be porting all their Kontakt libraries to their own host soon. It’s like the Spitfire player, pretty cool.

[@OVXX666]

holy shit thats how iglooghost did that thing

[@PendelSteven]

You don't know who Orchestral Tools is?!? They are the makers of the Berlin orchestra series, the Metropolis cinemanitc series and they made the Iconica sampled orchestra for Steinberg's HALion (Not included in Absolute, since € 999).

[@Nomo_Popo]

This thing completely flew over my radar until I saw it mentioned here kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z6W9lIeEj5pqZ9U so I'm doing the Arkhis tour. Great to see you covering it!

[@Evergreen64]

What do you have to have to use Arkhis?

[@RedMeansRecording]

[@AntonLeChuck]

nobody has done a decent video on Arkhis!

[@issiewizzie]

have you had time to look at Lores

[@RedMeansRecording]

Yeah. It's ok. I don't like it as much as ahrkis and arclight
