Free Multisample: littleBits Korg Synth Kit Sawtooth and Square Wave (Kontakt, Ableton, & SFZ)

The littleBits Korg Synth Kit sounds great, but it’s exceedingly hard to use for musical purposes because its oscillators don’t stay in tune for more than a few minutes at a time. After a few frustrating afternoons of trying to record a synth lead with this thing, I decided the only way that I would be able to use it is if I created a multisample out of it.

Here’s what the waveforms look like:

So…after painstakingly tuning each one, I sampled each note over six octaves, set loop points, then turned it into a multisample.

Features:

• Three formats: SFZ, Native Instruments Kontakt 5.1, and Ableton Live 9.1 (Simpler).
• Recorded in 96khz, 16-bit using a high-end audio interface
• Seemless waveform looping
• Recorded without lowpass filter (add your own software filters within Ableton, SFZ plugin, or Native Instruments Kontakt)
• Control envelope within SFZ, Ableton or Native Instruments Kontakt
• Both littleBits waveforms: sawtooth and square wave
• 5+ octaves
• Allows for polyphony (which the actual synth kit does not)
• Responds to velocity (which the actual synth kit does not)
• Ableton instrument responds to pitch bend and mod wheel (which actual synth kit does not)
