Orakle by MNTRA Instruments is a cinematic instrument suite built for dark textures, haunting melodies, and weighty percussion. Running in the MNDALA 2 Sound Sculpture engine, it brings together Tibetan horns, bowed cymbals, bass drum, voices, baroque cello harmonics, Turkish Kabak Kemane, and treble viola da gamba. Performances by composer and multi-instrumentalist Brian D’Oliveira draw on medieval, Nordic, and pan-Asian influences, with extended techniques adding grit and unfamiliar tonal colors. Shape these recordings into desolate atmospheres, tense soundtrack passages, or distinctive layers for electronic productions. With 31 sample maps, 46 presets, and up to 59 round robins, Orakle suits producers and composers who want expressive acoustic source material with room for experimental sound design.
