Large Update Imminent... Back soon!

MUTATIONS is a deeply configurable prepared piano, with everything you need to create rhythmic, percussive and unique prepared piano textures. The library gives you the feeling you are in the room with a grand piano, and with a level of control that is as close as can be to having a hand under the lid, placing the bolts/mutes/pegs/screws/picks or ping pong balls yourself. 

With 6 preparations + pure string, and some additional special effects (glissandos & pingpong rolls), the preparations can be configured to the individual string for all 88 strings. Giving near limitless possibilities on your own sound. A custom keybed has been created that shows in real time the note played, with a corresponding popup menu per note accessible Once a key is prepared, the corresponding menu button will show a small thumbnail indicating the preparation type selected. For ease of seeing the preparation types at a glance in performance. Hit our all new RANDOM button, to let the library generate instrument wide preparations on all 88 keys for an element of chaos! Engage ‘reverse’ mode, and have all sounds play back in reverse. Either on top of the standard forward mode, or in isolation.

Important Note: MUTATIONS requires the FULL version of Kontakt 5.8.1 or above (also works with the FULL version of Kontakt 6/7). Do not purchase this if you only have Kontakt Player.

    Excellent library

    It covers all the basic extended techniques for the piano. The sounds are excellent and are totally configurable to suit any context. Definitely the best library of this type that I have heard.
    Glad I picked this one up.

    Love it

    Incredible plug-in. Not ideal if you don’t have the full version of Kontakt, but the sounds are excellent.

    Great price for the utility.

    I needed some prepared piano for class. Without access to a grand piano, I was able to learn and compose for common piano preparations. I will utilize these textures as many orchestrator and composer have from my home studio.

    The best prepared piano

    I've tried several plugins of "prepared piano", I think this is the best one, since it has the most flexibility per note, plenty of options. Well done!
