How do you add ambient sounds?
Adding ambient sounds to your music can be as simple as downloading one of these free Kontakt ambient libraries. Some of them need the full version of Kontakt 7, but others run on the Kontakt Player, which is completely free to download. Once you’ve installed these ambient sound libraries, you can use them to create affecting pads, melodies, and more. Just remember the golden rule of ambient: if in doubt, add reverb.
