Start Thinking in Sounds
KORE introduces KoreSound, a universal sound format that shifts the
focus from individual instruments toward the sound itself. This new
format allows you to manage all the presets for all your software instruments.
These are then categorized in the powerful database according to specific
musical attributes, making them far easier and quicker to find, recall
and use at a future date.

The KoreSounds themselves can consist of single instruments
or complex sounds created using multiple instruments and effects. The
format also stores additional information regarding keyboard splits,
layers, individual controller assignments, output routings and more.

Layers and splits offer new potential (Click image to enlarge...)
The KoreSound format offers a further benefit: KoreSounds
can be easily transferred between any sequencer and system, and between
studio and stage, making set-up hassles a thing of the past.

Every single preset included with all the NI instruments,
more than 10000 in total, have been pre-configured and categorized with
a variety of musical attributes and individual controller assignments,
making the combination of KORE and NI KOMPLETE 3 outstandingly powerful.
Just search the database for an instrument type, keyword, timbre, style
or mood and you will be playing and tweaking the desired sound within
seconds.
Total Integration
KORE is a plug-in. KORE is a host.
Within a sequencer-based studio environment, KORE acts both as an audio
host and as a plug-in. In its role as host, KORE unites all your NI
and third party VST and AU instruments and effects into a single interface.
It is then itself loaded into your sequencer as a VST, AU or RTAS plug-in,
giving you a standard user interface, powerful database and instant,
hands-on access to all your instruments and effects.

KORE also marks the introduction of an extremely versatile and capable
performance platform with a wealth of advanced live features that finally
allow software instruments to truly come of age within a live situation.
Sophisticated layer and split configurations based on any combination
of instruments and effects can be created and recalled easily.
A powerful Performance Manager allows for seamless, on-the-fly transitions
between different scenes and sound sets either manually, pre-programmed
or remote-controlled. The combination of these features with the high-resolution,
interactive controller deliver a dynamic experience and let you to stay
focused on your performance.
