ORBA TEMPLATE
FOR GARAGEBAND & LOGIC PRO
Here is a collection of our favorite factory sounds from GarageBand and Logic Pro – organized in a session to work perfectly with Orba right out of the box. Each set of sounds is grouped by color – the drums are green, the basses are blue, etc. – to match the modes on Orba. When you select your instrument channel, be sure to change to the same mode on Orba, and everything will be mapped out for you and ready to go.
This session is available for GarageBand and Logic Pro. Both versions share the same sounds and track layout, but the Logic Pro version has a few additional settings, MIDI routings, and customizations.

INSTRUMENT 1 TEMPLATE FOR KONTAKT PLAYER
The Native Instruments Kontakt Player is a free sampler for PC and Mac that can be used to play virtual instruments with the Artiphon INSTRUMENT 1. The Artiphon Staff Picks download for Kontakt Player features sounds selected by the Artiphon team and have been configured to work especially well with the INSTRUMENT 1.

INSTRUMENT 1 TEMPLATE FOR ABLETON LIVE
Download: macOS and Windows
This Ableton Live session is a template for using MIDI Polyphonic Expression (MPE) with the INSTRUMENT 1. By setting up six individual instances of an Ableton virtual instrument, you can use string bending or fretless mode to independently bend the pitch of strings and control channel pressure. This additional setup is only necessary for independently controlling pitch bend or channel pressure, otherwise the INSTRUMENT 1 will work normally with just one instance of an Ableton virtual instrument.
