The Sampleist - Fables by Native Instruments/Evolution Series - Overview - Composing With

The latest cinematic offering from Native Instruments is a library that tells a story. Fables is all about exquisite pads, soundscapes and textures that weave a story. Through collaboration with Evolution Series who brought us the wonderful Lores, Fables is the sister library that takes a more orchestral and synthetic approach this time around.
Grab a cup of cocoa, sit in your favourite comfy chair, you may even wish to grab a snuggly blanket as we join Pete Checkley for a good old story time with Fables.
Our special thanks to Native Instruments for being a superb developer!

I like the way you put together reviews. Your contextual demos are informative and useful.

[@thesampleist]

Hey!! Thanks so much for the message and positivity! That really means the world to us! We feel the contextual demos are really important as that is why we buy the libraries! Thanks again! We hope you enjoy Fables!

Very nice. I've watched Evolution's own review, and this adds nicely to it. Lovely sounds, particularly the pads and atmospheres.

Bought an S88 Mk2 keyboard and its great, love the sounds in Lores, now tempted by Fables.

[@MattStevens9824]

Thanks for the look! I have Lores and this is really tempting me 😩

[@thesampleist]

Thanks for watching and the comment :) yeah, I have to admit it was a no brainier for me! :) Evolution Series make amazing instruments and ofc, you can’t go wrong with NI!

Talking about Komplete. I've updated to Komplete 14 Ultimate. So far instrumentwise I'm "missing" Arkhis, Fables, Schema: Dark, Valves (Pro), Choir: Omnia, Play Series: Feel It, Utopida, Duets, KR Drums & Sway, Icon Bass, Vocal Colors, Cremona Quartet, Stradivari Cello, the Symphony Series (I do have the Essentials) and.... Fables. I'm sure all of these and more will be in Komplete 15 Collector's Edition which will be my upgrade. Especially for Quartet, Arkhis, Fables, Schema: Dark Feel It, Utopia,, Valves and Vocal Colors and this one!!! In fact, I think Komplete 15 will bring us a scalable and improved Reaktor. It's due time. And I've also got an Komplete Kontrol keyboard, by the way. I

Don't be too quick to blame your computer for the popping. On mine (MacBook Pro Max) I get consistent popping while using Aftertouch (apparently one of the few NI instruments to implement it). This is a 1.00 version, not a dealbreaker. I'm finding Fables more useful that Lores (so far), Fables is excellent and versatile.

So.. could you help me get in to media composing?

[@User37717]

Yes baby

[@MateuszWypchlak]

Will the fables be a part of the Komplete 14 Collector's or 15 most probably?

[@thesampleist]

Hello! I can’t speak for Native Instruments but in recent trends it will most likely be in the K15 Ultimate or Ultimate CE edition. But who knows!

[@bateimidrashnetwork]

Usually these make their way into Ultimate or Collector's edition. Last time i updated from K13 CE - to K14 CE for $249. Here they are offering (holidays deal) the Fables library as an upgrade for $49 - but i know if i wait long enough this will be included along with other numerous libraries in the next K15 CE, probably also for $249. So if i'll buy this now and later buy the upgrade to K15 CE it means i'll pay twice for this same product. So i guess i'll wait
