01Overview

Gravity focuses on the intangible elements of a score: atmospheric pads, evolving risers, impacts and stings. Heavyocity built the library from organic source material recorded in studios and then processed with custom modular analog units. The new Motion page adds control over volume, pitch and pan patterns, so you can shape static sounds into rhythmic swells, stutters and glitch effects. The interface is designed around the sounds, with playable Trigger FX for real-time performance.

Pads, Risers, Hits and Stings for Scoring

The library is organized into four families. Pads come in three-channel complex, menu and single-channel formats, and complex presets can use up to six snapshots. Risers are built from three layers, Organic, Synth and FX, which can be stacked and set to a length or to tempo sync. Hits combine four layers: sub, impact, tail and whoosh. Stings cover reverse hits, whooshes, metallic textures and tonal sweeps.

The Designers page is new in this release and is used for building Hits and Risers. Gravity includes 19 riser menus and 9 hit menus for quick browsing.

Motion Control and Workflow

The Motion page sets volume, pitch and pan patterns. Tempo-synced swells and rhythmic pulses sit alongside stutters and glitch effects. A Pattern Chainer lets you combine patterns into longer sequences, and a Volume Modulator adds further movement.

Gravity also includes more than 325 Motion presets, which are Native Kontrol Automation files, and 1200+ NKI instrument patches for quick starting points.
