Fluffy Audio – Cartoon Maestro (KONTAKT)

A collection of tools for dubbing animation projects and comedy series.

Welcome to Cartoon Maestro! This Kontakt library has been carefully designed to meet the needs of those looking to score cartoons or sitcoms, offering a collection of unique solo instruments and articulations specifically designed for animation projects and films.

Our goal in creating this library was to capture the essence and diversity of scores from what is often considered the golden age of animation. We carefully studied and re-recorded scores from slapstick to more sophisticated compositions found in modern works to understand and recreate the unique sounds and effects achievable with traditional orchestral instruments.

Our journey included extensive research and numerous recording sessions to try out a wide range of articulations and capture the nuances needed to score the various scenes in cartoons. The library contains materials that interpret various animation scenarios, available both as articulations and as individual WAV files for easy integration into any DAW or video program.

Inside the library you will find 20 orchestral solo instruments: flute, piccolo, clarinet, bassoon, violin, trumpet, trombone, tuba, double bass, harp, steel guitar, vibraphone, marimba, xylophone, glockenspiel, timpani, bass drum, snare drum, cymbals, percussion, each with a variety of articulations, including a variety of parts, deeply sampled staccato and other unconventional sounds. A series of 28 ensemble patches are designed to reproduce important moments in the cartoon genres, such as chases or scenes with collisions and flights.

We have identified more than 28 distinctive musical moments, each of which is represented by different combinations of instruments and melodies, offering many ways to voice different scenarios. The system is completely MIDI-based, allowing for realistic and multifaceted interactions between phrases.

Cartoon Maestro is not just a library. It is a resourceful companion in your creative process, designed to help translate the whimsical world of cartoons into musical language. We hope that it will serve as a valuable tool in your quest to bring joy and laughter through your musical creations.
