Native Instruments has released Kontakt Retro Machines ($59), a new sound library for Kore 2 and the free Kore Player. Based on material from the Kontakt 3 factory library, Kontakt Retro Machines provides a collection of vintage instruments that established the sound of many electronic music genres of the past. The library's sounds were derived from 11 analog synthesizers, 5 vintage digital synthesizers, and 6 drum machines. A sample set comes with each of the included KoreSounds.

Like all Kore SoundPacks, Kontakt Retro Machines makes use of the capabilities of Kore 2/Kore Player and of its integrated instrument and effect engines. Every instrument sound features eight variations that are organized in a scheme that includes optional percussive, pad, solo/lead, and arpeggiated versions of every preset. For "vintage synth" operation, features such as adjustable glide, unison, polyphonic portamento, and optional pure tuning mode are provided.
