Trails includes our innovative Motion User Interface with a variety of useful controls, including a full suit of effects, 4 Voice Playback, Sample Start Offset Control and Full Randomization – all accessible from the main interface. You can also go much deeper and control everything from Filters, a 3 Band EQ, Stereo Delay, Bit Crusher, Distortion, Convolution Reverb and of course our powerful automated Motion XY pad.
Trails sets a new benchmark with the most modern, creative, impactful and atmospheric cinematic collection of sounds available today.
Trails contains hundreds of snapshot presets. Each preset has been built from the ground up to function as its own performance. For example, in the Atmos category you can hold down a key and the sounds will continue and evolve indefinitely, dial in the Motion XY pad control and apply your own automation to make the sound even more dynamic and ever-changing.
Built from the ground up, this collection of instruments offers you all the necessary tools to perfect the art and workflow of creating truly epic cinematic scores. We made sure to include all the sound categories any composer or sound designer would need, such as a wealth of Deep Impacts and Hits, futuristic Effects and Mechanical Sounds, Risers, rich and evolving Drones and various tempo-based Rhythms to help inspire and add energy and drive into your next composition.
The advanced features included in the library are all easily accessible through the custom user-interface. Quickly adjust or automate the Attack, Release, Speed and or Filter of your chosen set of sounds, letting them perfectly fit within your track.
Trails contains everything you need to create your next cinematic masterpiece.
Build your own transitions using the highly flexible XY Movement Page.
Set the Horizontal and Vertical speed, depth and smoothness. Sync with your DAW or leave unsynced. Retrigger mode re-starts the movement each time a new key is pressed.
Circular Mode cannot be active at the same time as Horizontal or Vertical. Clockwise or Anti-clockwise directions can be chosen.
Use the smoothness control to make the transition between point smooth or instant (or anywhere in between). Eg, setting the smoothness control to its minimal value will cause it to jump from point a to point B instantly (created quick rhythmic effects)
Atmos Category contains 396 selectable voices
FX Category contains 392 selectable voices
Oneshots Category contains 289 selectable voices
Rhythmic Category contains 217 selectable voices
Menus Category contains 11 selectable voices (each voice has samples mapped to individual keys giving you a total of 561 unique samples to use). ‘Menus’ is a little different from the other categories. ‘Menus’ allows you to access sounds derived from 11 sub-categories with sounds mapped across individual keys. This allows you to find just the right sound quickly without having to navigate through all 516 included samples.
Trails was used during the production of the superb ‘Tura’ album by Robert Jung.

”A great tool during the production of these soundscapes was a sample library, called “Trails”. This KONTAKT-library allows me to easily sculpt an atmospheric sound with a vector-based interface and add effects and movements to it through programmable settings. It was very inspiring to use and to just add that final “dab of sauce” to the overall track. I also found the name “Trails” very fitting to the musical world I was working on.”
The Tracks I used it on: Cove, Pisik, Euxoa and Volná

An interesting and creative instrument that invites experimentation and produces some wonderful results. An absolutely HUGE collection of different and interesting samples that than be loaded into four sample bays to create highly original results very easily. I have only recently discovered Ergo Kukke and love his work. Highly original sound design of excellent quality that invites exploration and manages to produce very creative sonic results easily. I have purchased many of his libraries now and love using them in my album productions. They are right up my street.
