Koto Nation: Classical Instruments of Japan

These two Kontakt libraries are among the oldest in the Impact Soundworks catalog, and while they remain some of the deepest world libraries around (thanks to our extensive recording of the instruments at 24/96!) their UI... or lack thereof... was beginning to feel dated.

So, we updated both instruments from the ground up! They now include all our latest tech like all articulations in a single patch with flexible mapping and control, built-in mic mixer and FX, microtuning, etc. Now they feel much better!

Both libraries include all key articulations for their respective instruments.

Sitar Nation includes a sitar (of course), as well as a tampura (for drones), tabla & baya (percussive).

Koto Nation includes a koto, bass koto, and shamisen.

You'll also find bonus FX patches for sound design purposes, plus various interesting mini-phrases and playing techniques.

These reworked versions are FREE for existing customers, while new customers can pick them up at their old prices through the end of this week. Afterward, the price will be going up to reflect the much enhanced playability and features.

Enjoy

I bought Sitar Nation back in the day. Also Impact Steel. My account from then was apparently deleted from your website.

It's more disturbing to log in and see for instance Ventus Bansuri not in My Products, I bought it this year. viewtopic.php?f=42&t=480133&p=6719095&h ... i#p6719095
March 2, apparently. I didn't keep the email with the download links since no S/N was required.

Just found the receipt for Impact Steel, oddly enough. But this is kind of dodgy.

I apologize for any digital inconvenience; the explanation is simply that as we've grown, we've gone from handling every order manually to a very robust ecommerce/account solution. Along the way we've switched systems and databases about three times. As of June 2016 our solution is extremely solid, but while about 98% of old orders were transferred properly, some of them did not. We have no way of knowing if something failed to make it over unless we're informed by a customer at which point we always fix it as soon as humanly possible.

If a newer purchase (post-June 2016) is not showing up, chances are you either used a different email or did not log in before making the purchase. Either way we can fix it for you very easily.

If you give me your email address (assuming you have not already contacted support@impactsoundworks.com) we will connect everything for you right away.

Ok, thanks. See PM.
