I’m very proud to have been part of creating Native Instruments Discovery Series India. A exquisite opportunity in which so many of my different passions collided. Fantastic team and a really cool instrument. In addition to percussion groove programming, I produced a couple of the demo tracks and the music for the demo video.

DISCOVERY SERIES: INDIA delivers every nuance of traditional Indian music with supreme authenticity and advanced playability.

EVERYTHING INDIA

Explore a vast library of rhythmic patterns and historic scales, designed for ultimate realism and adaptability. DISCOVERY SERIES: INDIA is a unique collection of superbly sampled percussion and melodic instruments, playable individually or in a finely balanced ensemble. Whether you need a touch of new spice in your productions or true-to-life performance, INDIA has you covered.

YOUR NEW MUSICAL LANGUAGE

Discover the sophisticated rhythms, irregular time signatures, and unique melodic structures of the Indian musical tradition with INDIA.

Play the rhythmic cycles (called ‘talas’) from the onboard groove player. Use these rhythms with the instruments in INDIA, or drag and drop the MIDI files and use them with any software instrument in your contemporary productions. The scales of this musical culture (called ‘ragas’) can be mapped to your keyboard in a number of ways and adjusted to taste for the perfect mood.

MODERN CONTROL

DISCOVERY SERIES: INDIA combines these traditional elements with deep customization features in a modern interface. Easy-to-use mixer and effects sections let you tailor the levels of the instruments and space in your mix without stepping out of your creative flow. Groove, Feel, and Intensity controls allow instant changes to the depth, rhythmic precision, and dynamics. And carefully-designed snapshots provide instant variations of each instrument performance.
