The Kontakt Library
Quality
Every sound was recorded directly from the source and modified using Kontakt's built in "Instrument Editor" to make each sound, sound as if its coming directly from the synth itself.
Modulation
Certain sounds have multiple layers of samples that have been recorded at different velocities to add more realistic sound, due to the analog version of the preset sounding different depending on the way you play it.
Variation
Certain analog synths made by the same company have sounds with the same or similar names but sound different, these different variations of certain sounds have been sampled.
Sounds Sampled

Expansions

The Zenology Bank
Patches From The Juno DS
The Roland Juno DS Tone-Manager is quite similar to the editor in Zenology, even having some of the same exact sounds. Half of the presets in the Hardware Zenology Bank were remade by copying the exact way the patches were made on the Juno DS
Custom Sounds
The other half of the Zenology bank are custom sounds that were made from scratch starting with the Init Tone and editing Waves, Filters & LFOs in Zenology's Pro Edit section.
The Juno DS Bank
Custom Sounds
These presets were made similar to how the Zenology bank was made, using Roland's Juno DS Tone-Manager and tweaking the Initial preset's Waves, Filters & LFOs
