NI Kore2 Review

Encompassing a huge array of exceptional, immediately production-ready sounds, a unique work-flow optimizing interface and a new, seamlessly integrated controller, Kore 2 lets you create unique sound...

Sound Variations and Sound Morphing

Native Instruments KORE 2

Any KoreSound® can encompass up to 8 sound variations - 8 articulations of one sound enabling you to emphasize varying settings and nuances as part of the musical flow. The 500 on-board sounds have been specially programmed with countless variations.

Sound Morphing field

The real innovation herby is the ability to morph sounds between their respective sound variations. For example, a KoreSound® can start as a bass-heavy MASSIVE sound, morph into a crystalline FM8 pad, gradually distort (through the addition of a GUITAR RIG 3 effect) and finally dissolve, (through the addition of a delay plug-in) a haze of reverb.

There are practically no limits to how sounds can be morphed. Virtually any parameter of a KoreSound® can be set as a sound variation. Internal mixer settings, volume/pan/send settings, MIDI information, audio and effect parameters as well as the sound settings of the plug-ins can be saved with a sound variation, thus making them available for morphing.

Whether smoothly morphing between sound variations with two of the Kore Controller's rotary dials or switching between variations with the 8 controller buttons – both processes can be automated in the audio host.

Workflow Acceleration with New Kore 2 User Interface

The newly remodelled, radically simplified user interface has been specifically tailored to optimize and accelerate workflow.

Create faster, work smarter

Native Instruments KORE 2

Radically simplified user interface. Sound Matrix in mixer view.

The new Sound Matrix lets you combine KoreSounds, plug-ins, effects, MIDI file players, step sequencers, appregiators and even entire performances (consisting of multiple KoreSounds) in any combination. Simple drag and drop operation in one unified interface for all file types minimizes the time spent managing files and maximizes creativity.

Want to fuse an ABSYNTH pad with an FM8 lead sound and pattern delay? Combine an appregiator with a REAKTOR sound? Trigger a KONTAKT drum kit with a MIDI player?

Kore 2 handles all elements (whether KoreSounds, plug-ins, effects, performances or MIDI modules) in the same way and using just one interface. Making, manipulating and working with sounds and plug-ins becomes direct and intuitive as never before.

Freely combine KoreSounds, plug-ins, FX, MIDI modules, etc. per drag and drop in the new Sound Matrix

Complexity made easy

Performance level plus deeper level - the inner structure of the KoreSound "Tube Thumper"

The entire sound architecture has been condensed in such a way that any number of mixer structures, including audio and MIDI routing can be nested inside each other, while simultaneously retaining maximum clarity.

The topmost level in the KORE interface is also the simplest, allowing an immediate, musically intuitive approach - even highly complex KoreSounds are incredibly ease to use. Through double-clicking, the user can access Kore's deeper levels, enabling increasingly profound sound manipulation.

Uniform operation in plug-in or stand alone mode

In Kore2 plug-in and stand-alone mode are now identical. For example, not only single KoreSounds but entire performances can be utilized in plug-in mode.

Flexible MIDI Routing

MIDI control data from the MIDI file player, arpeggiator, step sequencer or any other MIDI generating plug-in can now be routed - in the same flexible way as audio - to any number of destinations. For example, use a REAKTOR sequencer to trigger ABSYNTH sounds

Flexible Aux Routing

Creativity without bounds – in KORE 2 an unlimited number of aux channels are now at your disposal. Send the output of individual plug-ins to their own individual channels, or for further processing to other channels. Aux channels are created dynamically and are displayed only when needed.
