Origins Bundle Vol. 6-10: Ethnic Instrument Pairs for Kontakt

Each pair in the bundle combines two instruments with separate arpeggiators. Sonuscore says the Multi-Arpeggio-Designer is built to imitate a human performance rather than matching notes mechanically. The bundle includes more than 100 presets, and you can also build your own patterns.

Arpeggio designs can be copied between Origins products, so a pattern created in one pair can be used in another. The 12 color presets are built from impulse responses and effects settings, and Sonuscore states they allow more than 1,200 combinations when mixed with the pairs.

The sixth couple pairs muted guitar with harmonics, recorded by composer Mats Lundgren. The seventh couple combines the Tar, a plucked Persian lute, with the Chonguri, a Georgian instrument with silk strings. The eighth couple pairs Fado guitar with Cavaquinho, and the ninth combines the Ronroco, an Andean double-strung instrument, with the Bouzouki. The tenth couple features the Contrabass Panduri and Tanbur.

Because all ten instruments are also included as solo NKI instruments, you can use them individually when a pair is more than you need.
