Grenadier - Dark Scapes, Born of Cold Resolve

Grenadier is a powerful new Kontakt instrument designed for composers and sound designers drawn to the darker edges of cinematic sound. Featuring 10 expertly crafted presets, it delivers a palette of gritty textures, haunting atmospheres, deep low tones, and icy, fragmented leads.

Inspired by themes of endurance, isolation, and quiet strength, Grenadier invites you into a world shaped by shadow and stillness. Each sound feels deliberate and heavy with tension - perfect for scoring psychological thrillers, ambient explorations, dark drama, and experimental music.

At the core of the instrument are eight smart, MIDI-assignable controls, allowing you to sculpt each sound in real time. From subtle, hollow resonance to aggressive, abrasive intensity, these controls give you expressive power to build evolving, emotionally rich soundscapes.

Whether you're composing for film, TV, or immersive game worlds, Grenadier offers a unique sound - cold, bold, and beautifully unsettling. Step into the silence, and let your music speak the unspoken.

Controls:

  • Crater – Carve out the earth beneath your sound. Crater adds a deep, subsonic foundation—like the echo of something vast collapsing in the dark.
  • Flare – Ignite icy brilliance. Flare introduces a shimmering, glassy edge, infusing your tone with cold light and crystalline tension.
  • Tunnel – Pull the sound inward. Tunnel wraps your signal in shadowed resonance, conjuring the sensation of distance, decay, and subterranean space.
  • Ring – Let it linger. Ring adds a haunting overtone—a spectral chime that hovers and repeats, like the ghost of a forgotten note.
  • Rift – Tear through the calm. Rift introduces gritty, distorted energy, slicing through the texture with raw, menacing force.
  • Layer I / II / III – Shape your atmosphere. These controls balance the volume of each sound layer, allowing you to blend evolving pads, haunting leads, and low-end textures into a single, unified voice.
  • LPF – Roll off the highs to reveal warmth or summon deep, shadowy tones.
  • Attack – Adjust the layer attack time.

Full MIDI Control

Assign any knob or slider to a MIDI CC Controller by right-clicking it, selecting 'Learn MIDI CC Automation' and moving your desired control.

All eight knobs support 'Host Automation' so you can automate them in your DAW. In Logic Pro, use Smart Controls, and in Cubase, Quick Controls.

For Maschine users, the eight knobs are pre-mapped to the controller knobs for easy access.

Grenadier is amazing for spooky atmos

I havn't composed a full song with Grenadier yet, but I've had a good play around with the sounds -it sounds amazing! I compose a lot of dark ambient and neo-classical music as shimmerglisten and this is going to be ideal for me - so dark and slightly scary. I hope you create some more presets for it eventually...

Hi Shimmerglisten, Thank you for your review, we are delighted that you love Grenadier. Happy composing!
