01Overview

SIGNAL + REV Bundle pairs two Output instruments in one package. SIGNAL is built around pulses: rhythmic patterns that can run up to four at once and lock to tempo. The developer says it blends analog synths with live recorded instruments. REV focuses on reverse sounds, offering synths, real instruments, multi-layered pads, loops, rises, swells and stutters across four engines. Both are Kontakt-based, so you need Kontakt or the free Kontakt Player to load them.

Pulse-based rhythms and sound design with SIGNAL

SIGNAL organizes its sound around pulses, which are rhythmic layers driven by a built-in engine. The engine offers LFOs, step sequencers, an arpeggiator and a looper, and you can run up to four separate pulses at the same time. All pulses lock to tempo, so layered rhythms stay in sync with your project.

The library includes 500 pulse instruments and about 40 GB of content, covering analog synths, digital synths and organic instruments. Each instrument has four central MACRO sliders for performing and shaping the sound, and built-in filters, convolution reverb, saturation and delays are available. A tagging system helps you find instruments by sound type.

The engine has Basic and Advanced modes, so you can start simple and go deeper as needed.

REV reverse sounds for producers and composers

REV is a sound design library built entirely on reverse elements. The developer describes it as a world of sound design for producers, composers and musicians, and it is not a reverse button for your DAW or sampler.

REV contains over 14 GB of content across four engines and more than 1000 presets. The content includes complex synths, real instruments, multi-layered organic pads, loops, rises, pulses, swells and stutters.

These sounds suit transitions, build-ups and textural layers in electronic, cinematic and ambient productions.

05FAQ

Questions, answered

What do I need to run SIGNAL + REV Bundle?

You need Kontakt 5.8.1 or higher. The bundle works with the full version of Kontakt or the free Kontakt Player at that version or later. Native Access is required to activate Output's Kontakt-based instruments.

Which operating systems and formats does it support?

It runs on Windows and macOS as a 64-bit Kontakt instrument. The developer recommends Windows 7 or higher and Mac OS X 10.12 or higher, with 4 GB of RAM (8 GB recommended) and at least 30 GB of free drive space.

How is REV different from the reverse function in my DAW?

Output describes REV as a world of sound design built on reverse elements rather than a reverse button. It provides complete instruments, loops, pads and rises that are already built from reverse sounds.
