Dronar Vintage Synth £60
Regular readers will need no introduction to Gothic’s Dronar range of Kontakt libraries, and the latest puts the developer’s four-layer scripted engine to work on an unnamed “classic 80s synth” through 259 NKIs. As ever, Dronar’s main strength lies in the creation of complex ambiences and drones via its powerful mixing, processing and modulation engine, with chords generated automatically from single or multiple notes, and up to 12 keyswitched patches in an NKI. The samples employed here, though, feel particularly at home, making this one of the best yet. www.timespace.com
