Overview

Building on the award-winning success of EVOLVE, Heavyocity has again partnered with Native Instruments to release EVOLVE MUTATIONS. Powered by the Kontakt 4 Player, and featuring completely new content, this 2-gigabyte collection provides a “music-meets-sound-design” approach for the modern composer. EVOLVE MUTATIONS is a go-to resource for hybrid, electronic, pop and dance music productions, either on it’s own or as an addition to Heavyocity’s flagship Virtual Instrument, EVOLVE. Find your sonic signature with EVOLVE MUTATIONS.

Organized into four categories, this unique sonic resource includes an arsenal of highly expressive instruments, rhythms, and ambiences that can add depth and impact to any dramatic production.

The 4 Components of Mutations


Rhythmic Suites

Massive crunchy beats, walls of tweaked percussion, and next-gen tonal elements make up the Rhythmic Suite categories. The percussive loops are broken down into slices and mapped into individual presets allowing the user to rearrange and create their own loops.


Percussive Kits

Ranging from twisted drum kits to unique impacts, this category puts a variety of percussive sounds at your fingertips. Made up of 5 different menu-style kits, the Percussive Kits are best used as one-off hits or as elements to build your own beats.


Stings and Transitions

Offering distinct new ways to heighten emotional impact, this category is perfect for adding terrifying or serene punctuation to a film soundtrack or unique textures to the breakdown of a song. The category is comprised of several menus in addition to the associated sounds mapped onto individual presets.


Tonality and FX

A mashed up array of instruments that stray from the traditional “meat and potatoes” sounds that many composers already have. From organic, otherworldly soundscapes to gnarled-out synths, to treated melodic instruments, these sounds will bring an innovative quality to your arrangements.

User Interface Control Features

EVOLVE MUTATIONS is powered by the NI Kontakt engine. It is fully integrated into the K4P browser, and has an intuitive user interface. Users are provided with control over ADSR, HIGH PASS FILTER (including cut-off and resonance), LOW PASS FILTER (including cut-off and resonance), and EFFECTS (including Skreamer, Lo-Fi, Reverb, and Delay). Through the Kontakt interface, users also have control of Tuning, Pan, and volume.

Electronic Musician Magazine – January 2010 Issue
EM awarded Evolve Mutations with the “EM Hot Pick”, along with a perfect score of 5 out of 5. “…Mutations is a terrific companion library to Evolve. Once again, Heavyocity has pulled out the stops to deliver a palette of evocative tools for any modern electronic composer’s canvas. Mutations will surely find its way into film scores, and it gets my highest recommendation.”

Computer Music Magazine – December 2009 Issue, CM 146
Awarding Mutations a 9 out of 10, CM sums up the library, “…addictive, immediately creative and great if you need to come up with parts in a hurry.” “…the overall sound is a touch dirtier, with a gritty industrial edge, albeit tastefully done. The pack is ideal for sinister soundtracks, but pretty much anyone should find use in these superb, inspirational sounds, including owners of the original Evolve.”
