- Arkhis is a Kontakt instrument that combines layers of orchestral textures. It's insanely beautiful. Let's play it.

I love the "Burning Orchestra" Preset. It makes mixing Christmas songs a lot more sublime than I expected, and I used it for my Feliz Navidad remix.
I'm a huge sucker for simple, thought out UI and UX. On the one to 10 scale this is TASTY.
Lmfao! “Starship Attenborough”... awesome. Arkhis sounds so gorgeous it’s making me emotional.
9:10 is genuinely one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard
These vibes are all therapeutic in some way, really neat sounding atmospheres, well done man!
Friend asked me to make some music for her project. I did a rambling piece of nonsense we both laughed at then decided to try again, accedently came across this via Komplete Kontrol , tried a couple of presets and laid down 4 repeating chords. Bang, 10 minutes later along with some cello and violin. I was done
I could listen to these all day, ‘A World of Woodwinds’ is so beautiful. I can see how easy it would be to get lost in this plugin.
Nice to see you discovered Arkhis! So many amazing tones to be found in there
Nice to hear someone else who gets all the endorphins flowing just by listening to these sounds. Great video. Yes, I have to get this.
18:18 I should have not sipped tea at that very moment.
😂😂😂😂
So it wasn't a fart? What a shame 😒
I can confirm this is a shortcut to sounding Icelandic - lovely walkthrough Jeremy
I'm already looking forward to the update, or version 2 of this!
it is beautiful because it composes for you, unless you use little and create on top of it, but it has so much stuff going on always, you will feel overwhelmed and just listen...
Yessss, been waiting for you to cover Arkhis, thanks Jeremy!
Arkhis is crazy good! Awesome video in general man
12:14 had to go shut the house down. Lock doors, turn off lights, chase the cats off the counters, you know... And what echoed through my head? A layer of percussion on top of this, please please be there!? Timpani rolls, Slaps, wood block clock type emphasis. This comes close to the orchestra instrument where you build all the layers of the orchestra, directing the sway between the sections. It will come and be glorious fun. Take Bach string section, layer on top of Mozart woodwinds, mold both to be a grand third creation.
A cinematic video soundtrack generator !!
Sold. Great demo, NI should give you an affiliate link!
Easily one of my favorite instruments these days.
Oh, I'm getting strong John Adams vibes here...and that is a very good thing indeed...Thank you for sharing
Amazing sounding instrument, I love the simple and non distracting interface a lot too! I hope that shot didn’t effect your brain too much, because your brain is the main part why I love your channel. I hope you will recover soon. Take care!
And this is why I paid the extra money to go from Komplete 13 Ultimate to the Collector's Edition, and why I spent an extra 20 hours of my free time working for that money.
Wow, what a sound!
No better video to wake up to in the morning.
It's sick that you made a video on this - I've had it for a few months and it's become a secret weapon of mine - One of Two Kontakt libraries that I was ready and willing to throw down cash for (though at some point I'll pick up something from Slate + Ash)
Cycles! Do it.
What's the other one you got?
@@RedMeansRecording Exhale!
Thanks for sharing another awesome thing to youtube. For someone that isn't a composer. You sure do make some amazing music.
Very cool. It's like every Sci fi movie soundtrack ever
Well done on your Attenborough imitation!!!!
Beautiful. Thank you.
WONDERFUL...much thanks to great musicians , giving us superb palettes to curate from. Gr8 overview and application as usual Jeremy . Love your sense of innovation.
This plus Spitfire's Albion Neo would be sooo nice!
I hope you make a part 2 where you show how you implement these samples in your jams!
I need to!
Me too! 🙂
@@RedMeansRecording have you?

Hey great review of a wonderful instrument .... I checked with Sir Richard and he said your motif was dope 🤣🤣🤣🙏🙏🏿🎩👍🦄
"Servo, check it out! It's my new new-age Yanni lick!"
Amazing!
This is the cardinal sin of edm
The most inspiring instrument on my computer
Check out the OMEN kontakt instrument while it is still introductory price from "Silence & other sounds". It's real tribal vocals and chants etc including Mongol throat singing.
Ooooh
Ah! That's how they make all the Danish TV noir series music
Got your second shot? Well then... Welcome to the post-apocalypse!
Same here. Laying on the couch with a rather unpleasant headache. 🙃
The Arkhis tonic and a 5th, is definately smoother than a 5th of Tonic! Thanks for the review, I'm gonna go pick it up.
Sooooo I quite liked the idea of blending between a few sounds based on mod wheel position and thought it'd be quite easy to do in Max for Live. So if anyone's interested, here's a quick device: drive.google.com/drive/folders/1yJTFDKWtTUdRdqqLO23yxhJOIv77VTpL?usp=sharing
I'll probably make a video on it soon, but the basic gist is: put it on 3 chains in an instrument rack or 3 audio tracks, choose the right layer from the drop down menu and you should be good to go :)
God that jump fart
Beaut! I'm wondering how this compares to the Output products, winds, brass, strings etc
Sounds amazing 💯💯💯😎✌️
Really having to force myself not to buy the Collector's Edition, but i might cave
Loving this Bob Ross style music content Lol
Oh wow, this sounds absolutely amazing. I'm going to have to watch out for NI putting it on sale. Either that or figure out how to replicate this with the plethora of instruments I already have.
I think their 50% sale usually happens around late June.
@@ben_burnes Ah, I didn't know they did a summer sale. Usually I wait for Black Friday Month.
sadly you can just layer on top like 1 plus 2 plus 3 - and not with an smaller custom set area freely morphing throw the layers like in heavyocity novo, forzo, vento, mosaic series, etc.
This reminds me of the Wavestate. Really rad!
You don't know who Orchestral Tools is?!?
They are the makers of the Berlin orchestra series, the Metropolis cinemanitc series and they made the Iconica sampled orchestra for Steinberg's HALion (Not included in Absolute, since € 999).
ngl a lot of these instruments are included in komplete but i'm not sure to understand the point when we can't really play the notes we want with them at least for full music composition and not ambient stuff
It's a slightly different way of looking at an instrument I guess. I mean bjork used an entire preset sequence from the wavestation as the main hook so whatever works.
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I am a total newbie...You mentioned taking Arkhis into "Modular". What is this "Modular" you mentioned? Is it a modular hardware synth?
Modular hardware samplers. I did a video on this using morphagene
Starship Attenborough! Beam Me Up.
Have you tried LORES yet?😉👍
nobody has done a decent video on Arkhis!
This thing completely flew over my radar until I saw it mentioned here czcams.com/video/1tZcTNZ571s/video.html so I'm doing the Arkhis tour. Great to see you covering it!
What is this "modular system" you referred to at 23:09?
holy shit thats how iglooghost did that thing
Dude, wow. Such beauty. :_(
This is a standalone program right?
It runs in native instruments kontakt, as do a ton of other amazing sampled instruments
The company that made this has confirmed that they will be porting all their Kontakt libraries to their own host soon. It’s like the Spitfire player, pretty cool.
0:35 I haven reached God...
idk somewhere I've reached😌
What do you have to have to use Arkhis?
Kontakt
have you had time to look at Lores
Yeah. It's ok. I don't like it as much as ahrkis and arclight
"drops" sound like the wii menu
So... it makes the song for you? xD
yup
Covid shot? Oh my.....
Congrats on getting vaccinated
Do you still use this in 2023?
Yes
