The Ancient Greek Compendium Black Friday deal puts Soundiron's three-part Kontakt collection at $74.50, 50% off, until Dec 6, 2026.
It covers Ancient Greek Strings, Winds and Percussion, sampled from instruments of wood, gut and goat skin.
The maker says each instrument was handcrafted with period-accurate methods, materials and tools by LyrΑvlos, an Athens-based historical research group led by Panagiotis Stefos.
LyrAvlos played every instrument, and producer John Valasis recorded them.
The articulations run from plucks, sustains and staccatos to strikes and rolls. You also get sound effects and ambiences, plus 60 ambient pads and drones built from the source recordings.
It ships as 84 Kontakt.nki instrument presets. The content is 22,773 stereo samples, 24 bit / 48 kHz uncompressed PCM wav, and takes 15.5 GB once installed.
The multi-layer interface has LFO, filter, glide and arpeggiator controls. The LFO lets you pick the shape, the modulation target, speed, intensity, tempo sync and fade-in time.
You can choose from 12 lowpass, high-pass and FX filters. Controllers you can route to modulation include note velocity, the mod wheel, expression pedal, channel pressure, where on the keyboard a note falls, and a table driven by the step sequencer.
Soundiron's arpeggiator has a velocity table and controls for direction, timing, swing, randomization and duration. A key and scale lock keeps your notes inside common scales and keys.
The modular FX rack has 27 DSP modules that you can load into any of 8 slots, in any order. They include phaser, flanger, delay, distortion, amp and cab simulators, compressors, EQ and rotator.
The convolution reverb carries 99 impulse responses of rooms, halls, chambers and outdoor spaces. Another 40 custom FX impulses are there for more extreme sound design, and factory FX chain presets give you a starting point.
The free Kontakt Player and the Add Library import process do not support this library.
