Come to play with NI

Native Instruments have been quiet of late – well, for them anyway – so we’ll assume that their entire team has been developing this new Kontakt instrument. Playbox is designed to create happy accidents through randomisation. Actually NI say it better: “At the roll of a dice, it will randomise and blend between 905 immersive samples, 224 chord sets, and 217 effects presets, to help spark new musical ideas, and take tracks to the finish line.” What with EZdrummer 3 firing your drummer, it sounds like us producers are being replaced now. Might as well meet the drummer in the pub. Price £129.
