Nucleus SoundLab is proud to announce the release of DataBank Two. DataBank Two is the next installment in the popular line of Native Instruments Massive presets by Nucleus SoundLab.
Designed by Jeremy Janzen, DataBank Two was created over the course of 6 months—using the lessons and experience gained in the production of DataBank One. These presets take into account customer feedback to provide another unique, useable and flexible set of sounds. The resulting presets are unsurprisingly even better than the first product. Psychedelic leads, round sub-basses, future pads and of course mindbending multitrack sequences are all present and accounted for. Every one of the 100 included presets is fully Kore-ready with all 8 Macro Knobs mapped to appropriate, useful parameters. Often Knobs control multiple related parameters to trigger powerful morphs across many different sonic dimensions. Of course, the presets also fully conform to Kore categorization as well.
Not only that, but DataBank Two carries on its predecessor's utility as a sound design tutorial: DataBank Two is isn't just a patchset—but a Massive programming masterclass! Virtually all presets include valuable programming notes to help you better understand the presets and Massive itself.
DataBank Two is available now for electronic distribution at the low price of 29.95 EUR. A demo bank is available for free download.
