QuickSilver Core is the special downloadable version of the original QuickSilver NNXT refill. Why Core? This version contains all basic elements of the original refill (1245 wav files) that are needed for rebuilding any patches of the QS300 synth! Basic elements are the core of the whole stuff. The rest of the samples (the 'complex waves' and the 'more elements') have been skipped in this version. As a consequence, the result is a small but yet powerful & versatile synth refill at a very modest price.

This refill is not 'just another refill' or a sample collection that happens to support the Reason Refill format! Instead, QUICKSILVER Core is the refill version of the Yamaha QS300 synthesizer, that nearly gives you a new device to your Reason environment, exactly like our previous PROTON refill.

How is that possible? To understand this, we have to see, how the QS300 works: the Yamaha QS300 is a very rich-sounding synthesizer, because it uses a multi-layer structure, every layer has its own envelope, filter, etc. We can create wonderful pads, endless morphing textures and some other warm and fat patches... but!

If we record these sounds, we lose the possibility of alteration later: we cannot independently change the parameters of each layer, but only those of the whole mixed samples. It's just like a snapshot... sounds good but less versatile.

Instead of that, we have chosen a more complicated way. The QS300 uses small parts (in Yamaha terminology: elements) to build its sound: every layer is based on an element. We broke down the sounds of QS300 to these elements, recorded all of them, and then we completely rebuilt the multilayered patches in NNXT.

The result was very surprising for us and defenitely it proves the power of NNXT advanced sampler!:)
