Hollow Sun Novachord now available in EXS24 format

The master of sampling, Steve Howell, has been busy beavering away in the lofty confines of Hollow Sun Towers, fashioning new formats of his unique and superb Novachord library. You may recall from previous posts that Steve has been collaborating with Dan Wilson, owner of Novachord NC346, and has come up with a library of beautifully haunting samples, presented both in their original form and also with new and exciting twists programmed in. Until recently, they have only been available in Kontakt 3 format, but Steve did promise more formats, including EXS24, Pro Tools Structure, Akai (S5/6000, MPC4/5000, Z Series) & Alesis Fusion.

The EXS24 offering is available now at the Hollow Sun store for the measly sum of $90 USD/£59 GBP.

The EXS24 version can also be imported into Kontakt 3 but will need patching up and some tweaking of certain parameters, but the mapping and basic amp envelopes are there, making it a good entry level pack for those Kontakt 3 users prepared to put the work in and get jiggy with their samplers!
