Kore

Kore 2 is a powerful software / hardware system with a versatile library of more than 500 production-ready sounds with over 3,000 sound variations, plus over 100 effect settings. Find, play, and tweak sounds with speed, power and ease.

Kore 2 features six integrated sound engines, a dedicated hardware controller (Kore 2 Software Edition also available), and the ultra-fast KoreSound browser. Additionally, Kore 2 is infinitely expandable with the Kore Soundpacks, Komplete 5 or any other Audio Unit/VST-plug-in.

Production-ready sound library
Kore 2 produces cutting-edge sounds right from the start based on the integrated sound engines of Reaktor, Massive, Absynth, FM8, Kontakt and Guitar Rig. The versatile sound library covers production-ready sounds of nearly all kinds - ranging from band and orchestral instruments to synthesizers, drums, soundscapes and sound effects. Every included sound provides up to 8 sound variations which can be morphed using the unique morphing pad or the Kore controller - intricate sonic transitions are at your fingertips.

Fast and easy access to sounds
Kore 2 makes finding the desired sound a breeze - simply choose an instrument type and its musical characteristics in the new and expanded KoreSound Browser or use the text search function.

Analog-style control
In Kore 2, software generated sound acquires the tactile feel of hardware. The Kore Controller's high resolution, touch-sensitive controls guarantee tangibly direct analog-style sound manipulation. All library sounds have been pre-mapped for immediate hands on tweak-ability.

Create new sounds in the Sound Matrix
Within the intuitive sound matrix, KoreSounds, plug-ins, effects, MIDI files, step sequencers and arpeggiators are all easily combinable by drag and drop. The matrix makes for a uniquely creative and intuitive workflow.

Stage-Ready: Performance Presets & Sound Mapping
Kore 2 is not only the perfect production tool for the studio, but also a powerful instrument for the stage: Thanks to the sophisticated keyboard layer and split functions and the Performance Preset Manager, you can perform complete shows and seamlessly switch between different sounds and setups - manually using the controller or via MIDI Program Change - immediately or on a certain beat or bar. And with the Kore 2 controller, you have all sound settings manually under control at the same time.

Kore 2 grows with your needs and is infinitely expandable with new sounds thanks to the Kore Soundpacks.
