NKS bank releases
This is a new thread to share information about any third party sound banks that also come in NKS format and to hopefully promote that trend. I would exclude here Kontakt sample instruments as there is a whole section for them and any that are made to load in Kontakt player are automatically also 'NKS ready". This thread is specifically for news about synth and effect preset releases where the developer has included NKS as a format.

Audiovoltage Dream Cascades is a bank for Valhalla Vintage Verb that comes in NKS format (based on the updated template I made for the user library - although this bank is not by myself I hasten to add):

They also have a free bank for Supermassive that I converted to NKS that should be available in that format soon

There is also Post Nuclear I and II by Spektralisk which are made for Reaktor Kontour (afaik the only banks that are) that I was pleased to find come with NKS presets (although I had to completely redo the tagging which added some tag clutter)

u-he of course routinely releases their sound banks for their NKS ready plugins (i'e all the commercial ones apart from ACE and Bazille) in NKS format, a recent example is Monochrome for Hive

Shameless plug. I have updated the NKS versions of my 2 somewhat eccentric banks for u-he's awesome and free comb osc based synth, Triple Cheese (Camembert Electrique and The Cheese Shop) using the VST3 template I created. I'm proud to say these are only synth banks in existence to be influenced by Gong, King Crimson, Wallace and Gromit, Monty Python and The Clangers.
Included are the original h2p patches for Triple Cheese and tagged NKS versions for VST3 with previews

Oh, you did it!
I just see it, well done :-)

I should get this, Gong are my favorite artists from the old days!

It's more hippy stoner Flying Teapot Gong than the later Pierre Moerlen jazzy percussion ensemble stuff (although I like that too)
Plus both sound sets are basically one big pun - you need to know the Cheese shop sketch though

Exactly the same!
Huge Steve Hillage / Tim Blake fan!

Here's the first of my ACE banks - 'ACE-100' - h2p and VST3 NKS patches, fully tagged with previews

Now the second - Heavy Industry - these are mostly dystopian industrial and sci fi FX patches with a few mutant basses and dissonant bell sounds. Heavily influenced by Sci Fi sound tracks, especially Forbidden Planet - lots of messing with mod mapping to create weird sequences or shift sounds in and out of tune

Last one for ACE is 'Odds & Sods' - this just means 'Misc leftovers' in Britspeak (nothing rude) - it's the patches that were left over from my first 2 banks that didn't quite fit them as they were too 'ordinary' - but sometimes ordinary is good - bit of a mixed bag but most of these are more what people call 'bread and butter' - lots of basses and leads and some acoustic instruments, brass and keys too. Most are monophonic or legato

I'm currently converting my Chomaphone bank (Chromatones) to NKS for the VST3 version as the old one won't migrate but in the course of that I am also converting the Chromaphone 2 patches to Chromaphone 3, adding additional modulation and macros, so this is going to take time. I plan to release this in 4 batches of 30 presets at a time because I am basically remapping each patch in Chromaphone 3, then saving the NKS version too. I am also creating add-on patches combining 2 layers which will be a bonus bank.

Now that the initial bugs in Chromaphone 3 have been mostly fixed (which took a long time) I have started updating my Chromaphone bank (Chromatones) to Chromaphone 3 to make use of the macros and extra modulation options. Alongside this I have also begun creating a separate bank of layered patches exploring interactions between sounds from the first bank. This is taking a lot of work and time so I have decided to break up this into 4 chunks of around 30 patches (the original bank was 120 patches) plus as many patches as I have created up to that point in the Explorations bank. So here is the first chunk with 31 patches in Chromatones 3 and 21 in Explorations. All patches come with patch notes and many are morphable.
These also include fully tagged NKS patches with previews for Komplete Kontrol
This is a labour of love and I put in a lot of effort so if you appreciate these feel free to Buy Me A coffee
Thanks :)
