As a modern music producer, you may find it challenging to capture the true essence of vintage synthesiser sounds that bring a nostalgic vibe to your tracks. The iconic analogue warmth of classic synths like the Prophet 5 is often missing in todays digital-heavy productions.

By using F9 Mercury P5 youll have access to a treasure trove of meticulously crafted sounds, capturing the true essence of this legendary instrument using the built-in sampler tools of your DAW, or Kontakt. From lush pads to soaring leads, this pack is a must-have for any producer seeking to infuse their creations with the timeless character of a truly classic analogue synth.

The 144 Multi-sampled es inside this collection perfectly capture the lush warmth and exhilarating motion of the P5.

Only round-robin sampling can accomplish such a feat - This process records multiple samples at the same pitch, complete with the phase and pitch differences of the analogue sources and then rotates around this sample set, breathing life into what would normally be a static sampling process. Think of this as a miniature film instead of a single photograph. The results are full of energy, life and inspiration.

Multiple recording chains were used throughout the 5-month period of sampling. Everything from API, Neve and our new favourite - an A-Designs RED-DI that packs a huge tube punch before we even get into further analogue processing.

This pack is formatted for the following :

Logic Pro 10.2 Onwards ( including all Apple Silicon and modern OSX editions )
Kontakt 5.8.1 onwards ( Including Kontakt 6 and 7 )*

* Kontakt users - A Full install of Kontakt is required. This release will not work correctly with the Kontakt Player or other Free editions of Kontakt bundled with Maschine or Komplete Kontrol - Please check your install level using Native Access.

Demo Sessions

While many -based sample packs provide great sounds, few show you how to use them to their full potential. This is what sets F9 apart from the rest. F9 Mercury P5 DAW editions come with 5 meticulously crafted projects that showcase the included content, along with 5 sets of expertly produced drum stems.

By triggering the multi-sampled instruments in this library with MIDI, we can demonstrate just how powerful these analogue-sourced sounds are, using nothing more than the stock plugins in your DAW. Experience the true potential of your DAW when its given high-quality raw material to work with.

Furthermore, this is our first release that supports Bitwig, and weve fully leveraged its excellent modulation capabilities and MPE expression technology in these projects.

Kontakt GUI

This release sees the 1st outing of our new Kontakt script incorporating many often-requested features. We have tried to keep this as useful, yet simple as possible. Direct access to the excellent SSL style EQ at the bottom of the design has proven an amazing late edition.

Additional Kits

As a bonus, this release also includes 5 drum kits, each formatted for all available editions, with additional formats for Battery 4 and MPC.

Akai has also released a version of MPC software called MPC Beats, which is available as a standalone app and a plug-in for all major formats. We highly recommend that all producers take advantage of this amazing gift to the production community. The software is available HERE

A Personal Note -
When I was 14 years old, I stumbled upon my first analogue synthesizer. A band was setting up on stage at a local theatre, and after accidentally entering through the wrong door during a tour of my local 6th-form college, the keyboard player noticed my fascination and allowed me to experiment w
