Toska

A New Instrument for Kontakt.

Toska is a palette of evolving, atmospheric textures created from multi-layered, imperfect performances.

A unique combination of analog synths, brass, strings, winds, vocals and field recordings have been heavily processed to create a collection of immediate, contemporary sounds.

The source material is carefully curated to offer depth, movement and colour to modern composition.

It is an instrument with Toska at its heart.

"No single word in English renders all the shades of Toska. At its deepest and most painful, it is a sensation of great spiritual anguish, often without any specific cause."

Reviews.

Sound on Sound - 5/5 Stars.

Snakes of Russia - "Rarely do I connect with an instrument this fast...it's deep, sounds gorgeous and very immediate."

Sample Library Review - "Noon Instruments delves into the dystopian darkness with Toska for Kontakt Player, a Stand-Out with its sheer depth and size and a great fit for heavy dark scores. It stands out from other libraries with the sheer depth and size of the sounds, and the variety of included effects and controls allow you to have a clean sound, or something more raw and distorted."

Simeon Amburgey - "It seems that whenever you turn around someone releases a new cinematic texture type of Kontakt instrument, but do we really need so many, my answer would be a resounding YES! Noon Instruments with their release of TOSKA, takes the concept of cinematic textures into some brave and creative worlds. The Kontakt engine that drives TOSKA is so full of sound shaping possibilities to help get the right feeling and emotion you are looking for."

Implied Music - "Noon Instruments sample library for Kontakt (NKS compatible) is an expressive pad machine. Its inviting interface begs for multiple CC controllers and automation. LFO's add movement. Beautifully produced, with a GUI that's easy and fun, I had a great time putting it through its paces."
