A chaotic drum machine for a chaotic world.
{See video at top of page}
The Modular Chaos Engine #1.1 is a "found sound" drum machine with a 785 natural sounds and 2 complex but simple to use 12 x 12 track sequencing engines triggered by MIDI notes and controllable in real time with CCs.
You can use anything from a grunting pig, to a firework display, to a stamp on the stage at Glyndebourne Opera House as your "kick" drum and combine it with a "snare" made from a Ladyshave mixed with a walk through deep snow, and a hi hat made from crackling onion skins or a wobbly horse fence. There are an unthinkable amount of sound possibilities lurking in there.
Features include:
Found#1.1 needs a FULL version of Konakt5 and will not run in Kontakt4, but there is still the original version#1 which runs in both Kontakt4 & 5. Please don't buy this if you are using Kontakt Player.

First of all, MCE #1.1 Found Sounds is pure fun and a joy to play.
Second, it sounds great (do not expect an 808 like stuff, but this is obvious), and all these "found sounds" are a constant surprise, perfect for minimal and glitchy drum patterns, but also as an add on to other genres rhythmic loops.
Third, programming in the Chaos Engine is easy, intuitive and an endless journey, and if you love discovering and mixing sounds together this is like heaven.
Fourth, just open the "mapping editor" to see what a painstakingly work of patience is living behind this kontakt instrument (all my respect).
Fifth, I love it, use it and dance with it, therefore I simply wish to say "thank you" to Pendle fron Sound Dust.
