Cinematique Instruments

Cinematique Instruments is a German boutique virtual instrument developer specializing in intimate, beautifully recorded acoustic instrument libraries for Native Instruments Kontakt. The company is known for creating unusually expressive and detailed instruments from a diverse range of acoustic sources — ranging from prepared piano and musical toys to exotic strings and found-sound percussion — recorded with exceptional microphone placement and attention to performance nuance. Cinematique Instruments products are beloved by film and game composers, ambient producers, and experimentalists who want acoustic instruments that feel genuinely alive. Their libraries often explore the spaces between conventional instrument categories.
