TROUBLESHOOTING DOWNLOADS:
The download utility should generally work for all download purposes, however please use our manual download links if
you encounter any issues. The manual download links are generally slower downloads, but allows you to download the
compressed library files (.rar compression) through your browser. You can access the manual download links here:

Please use your purchasing email address and enter ENTIRE serial code.
TROUBLESHOOTING KONTAKT:
This library does NOT use the “add library” function in Kontakt and all files must be access through the regular Kontakt
browser (upper left side of Kontakt). Please use the file browser in Kontakt and locate the program (.nki) files in the library
to use it.
BROWSER
The Browser is very straightforward: Each articulation has its own load/unload button and its own volume control. Additionally, they
can be stacked and randomized using our known CHAOS button.
There’s a settings button that helps assigning Keyswitches/Midi CC to change articulations on the fly.
MAIN UI CONTROLS - MODULATION
Additional options are available for further control of the instrument such as gate and a deeply-coded Tuning control that offers
both a tonal and a ‘fine-tune’ option.
MAIN UI CONTROLS - EFFECTS
There are 4 pads available, each one with its independent FX control (in addition to the CHAOS effects)
First, to enable a pad, an ON/OFF button has to be toggled on. Once on, the CHAOS button on the footer
will also randomise the selected effect.
There are three types of filters and nine different effects that can be assigned in each of the pads.
Once an effect has been loaded, each of the X and Y sections of the pads can also
be manually assigned to any control of the loaded effect
Once the X and Y are assigned to a control, they can be manipulated by playing
with the pad.
Each of the pads has an “intensity” slider to control how much of the effect is
applied.
A footer for quick controls is always in display. Dynamix will control the dynamics of the sound (also controllable with CC1) There
are ADSR controls for shaping the envelope of the sound and finally, an offset control allows further manipulation on the sample
start.
CHAOS EFFECTS
EFFECTS
The Effects page consists of multiple rack effects.
The Chaos 4 system allows you to create your
own effect chains and even more - to use the
same effect multiple times.
The SEQ page consists of the LPF and HPF buttons which allow you to choose which filter type is controlled by the sequencer. We
also included RATE which adjusts the speed of the sequence remaining synced to your host tempo. STEPS which adjusts the
available amount of steps in the Sequencer and ON NOTE which will restart the sequence upon every new note played.
EQ controls a 3 band Equaliser, we have included a handful of useful presets to help you in sculpting your sound. We also have
included a CHAOS control, this allows you to randomise every value, which is extremely useful for carving out new and interesting
sounds.
The SEQ page contains a sequencer which is pretty similar to the one in Filters. The sequencer is able to control either RATE or
DRIVE with various RATE and STEPS of the sequence. It is also able to be restarted ON NOTE.
DELAY consists of 2 sequential delays, this allows you to build complex rhythms and sequences by simply using different time
values. Each delay has a wet MIX parameter, a tempo synced TIME control, and FEEDBACK and PAN controls to help control the style
and power of the delay. And, you guessed it, we included a CHAOS control, so you are able to randomise every relevant parameter,
creating some truly amazing delay patterns. Both delays and the filters also work intelligently, meaning if you are not using them or
they are set to a minimal value, they will bypass themselves in order to save your CPU load.
TRANSFORM contains a powerful impulse convolution with some truly strange and wonderful presets. To change what convolution
is loaded, simply select the preset dropdown menu, and load any of our hand designed impulse responses. From fog horns, to car
crashes, engine revs to world ending drones, we have included a handful of our favourite custom recorded and designed presets and
our beloved Textural Delays. If you are feeling indecisive, you can also select the CHAOS control, which will randomly assign a
preset for you, as well as alter the available controls for some truly esoteric results. The included controls can help you further shape
the convolution, such as MIX which alters the wet value of the insert, SIZE which stretches or compresses the impulse, PRE-DELAY
which adds a small delay before the impulse is triggered, and of course a HIGH and LOW PASS FILTER, which allows you to shape
the frequency of the impulse convolution layer.
8DIO THANKS
The production of our libraries are not only a product of our own vision, but also a product of patience from friends and family and
of course, countless discussions with a variety of great musicians.
Love,
