Hi everybody! I just finished dynamitecPerformer v1.5.
A script for Kontakt 2 doing very realisic human vibratos / tremolos.

These are the features:

- Two different vibratos and / or tremolos (A and B)
- Those two can be blended via modwheel
- You see (WYSIWG) your different waveforms crossfaded when using the modwheel
- Vibrato / Tremolo is synchronised with BPM if wanted

You build a vibrato from the following parameters:

- Vibrato curve:
The table shows the first halfe of the vibrato curve (it's has a negative amplitude on the second half). You can setup the wavelength for this part (note duration or time multiplied with a factor) and you can choose or mix different curves via "Edit..." or draw your own. The vibrato curve defines how the pitch is changed while doing a vibrato. You can change the global strengt via "Factor: Vibrato" on the right side in edit mode.

- Vibrato Fade Curve
Same here. Choose different curvers or draw your own. The fade curve defines the fading in (or out) of the vibrato curve when a note is played.

- Tremolo curve:
The table shows the first halfe of the volume curve (it's has a negative amplitude on the second half). You can setup the wavelength for this part (note duration or time multiplied with a factor) and you can choose or mix different curves via "Edit..." or draw your own. The volume curve defines how the volume is changed while doing a vibrato. You can change the global strengt via "Factor: Tremolo" on the right side in edit mode.

- Tremolo Fade Curve
The fade curve defines the fading in (or out) of the Tremolo curve when a note is played.

- Drift curve
The drift curve defines how strong the speed drifts while doing a vibrato (you can change the global strength (in percent) via "Factor: Drift" on the right side in edit mode. Negative values means a speed up, positive a slow down. Just try and hear. A value 100 in the tables means a slowdown of 100percent per tick! A value -100 means a speedup of 100percent per tick

- CC Strenght
This curves defines how much the global strength of the vibrato is moderated by the modwheel.

- CC Blend
This curve defines how the two vibratos (weak and strong) are crossfaded via modwheel. Lower values means more weak vibrato, higher values means more strong vibrato.

- Factor: Velocity
Positive values means: higher velocity, more vibrato. Negative values means: higher velocity, less vibrato.

- Factor: Humanize
How many humanizing (some random stuff on the right place


Btw: This vibrato / termolo is really sensitive to the modwheel (and if you setup it up this way: to the velocity of the keys you press). In fact: if you use both slots (A and B) you have 127 different vibratos you can switch via modwheel. And: You can for example do a slow vibrato with lower values of your modwheel and a fast vibrato with higher values. And of course: those two will be blended smooth.

That sounds pretty damned interesting.

Can you point me towards info on "Kontakt scripts" - I don't recall NI even advertising this feature.

Take a look here (it's the kontakt scripting forum with a lot of resources, free scripts and infos.

Ah, thanks. As someone who doesn't own Kontakt I just assumed that the forum would be closed to me.

I don't want to know how to do it, I just want to see if I want Kontakt so that I can script. There looks like there should be enough info on that link to figure out if it's something for me, though. Thanks again.
