Project Pegasus is a free collection of dreamy analog arpeggios, lush strings, huge pads, and ambient soundscapes crafted by Bryan Lake, aka Sound Author.
The free download link is located at the end of this article.
The Library
Project Pegasus offers a diverse palette of warm and spacious sounds that are ready for use in Kontakt 5 or any WAV-compatible sampler.
The sounds were built from scratch using various virtual synthesizers and real-world instruments and processed with both internal and external studio gear. Bryan has used various sound mangling and re-sampling techniques to create a variety of rich ambient pads and some fantastic arpeggio sequences.
The library contains over 100 individual instrument patches, covering a broad range of cinematic and ambient sounds ranging from huge dreamy soundscapes to classic analog pads and earth-shaking bass samples.
Project Pegasus is a cinematic sound library that is perfectly suitable for use in cinematic scoring and ambient soundtracks.
Still, most of the included pads and soundscapes can be used in various music genres, such as electronica, experimental rock, dubstep, etc. Feel free to experiment with these samples and layer them together to create even bigger and more complex soundscapes and pads.
The Artist
Bryan Lake, aka Sound Author, is a composer and sound designer based in Florida.
He published a number of free sound libraries and NI Reaktor ensembles on his website, including an outstanding free soundbank for the legendary Synth 1 virtual instrument.
Technical Details
The sounds in the instruments folder include pads, keys, bass samples, and leads. They are suitable for polyphonic playing. The sounds in the atmospheres folder are mostly suitable for monophonic playing.
The arpeggios will sync to your host application’s tempo automatically. The root note for the arpeggios is C2, and the sound quality will deteriorate significantly as you move further away from the root pitch.
The included Kontakt 5 patches require the full version of Native Instruments Kontakt. The pack contains 122 individual Kontakt 5 patches in total. The disk space required to use the library is 294 MB.
Content
Project Pegasus contains 122 audio samples in 24-bit WAV format. The included samples are sorted into three different folders. The pack contains 19 arpeggios, 50 atmospheres, and 53 instruments.
The samples are perfectly looped, and you can easily load them in any WAV-compatible sampler instrument. Each sound from the pack comes with a corresponding instrument patch for Kontakt 5.

Thanks a lot!
Thanks !
I’m amazed every time you release a pack. There is so much love and nice work in them ;)
My fav for now is Weird…because i love industrial music :D
And this one is probably going to be loved, too.
Thank you very much!
Donation is a great idea! Thank you. But please add PayPal payment option. It will be easy for people like me.
Thanks for the great uploads! Though…I tried adding the .nki into the kontakt library and it isn’t working. The file is there…but it doesn’t want to cooperate with Kontakt. The only way so far to get it to work was through the clicking of many subfolders by going from “files…drive…etc.” Also, the .nki’s says “demo?”
same thing here it says demo and i cannot get more than 15 minutes out of it
thanks for all the good 99 Sounds stuff
Thank you very much! Great work…
Thank you sir, can’t wait to check these out.
I’ve downloaded this and the file is the right size but it is only read as a document folder?
Thanks for all the kind comments and encouragement from everyone here. It means more than I can say. I’m delighted that Project Pegasus has received the attention it has gotten so far. Again, thank you all, and don’t stop dreaming :)
Thank you too Bryan! :)
wow.. just wow.. all the sounds on this page is amazing
Thank you very much !
You should offer Paypal. I’d have donated something if you had.
Quick question on Pegasus. Have tested the sounds in it which are great. but mine is missing the wallpaper file when you bring up each sound. Was there supposed to be a wallpaper file with the download?
Not a big deal and I can create my own if need be, but just curious.
Other than that , all works great.

THANK YOU SO MUCH 99…

its almost perfect dude.
You guys are awesome!!
cheers!!
Cheers!
More please!!!!
Great sound quality and design. Very useful.
Can I use these sounds for my youtube intro and videos?
Yes, absolutely!
Thank you so much! These sounds are really awesome…
These sounds are amazing and also a great help to young producers like myself! Thank You!
Jalil
Thank You!!!!!!!!!!!
“provided that the samples are not used as part of a sample library”
This means not to put the samples into another sample library online or something, right?
Exactly!
THIS IS Beautiful you guys are just Awesome !!!
Thanks so much!
thank you, I had no money Very, to buy these samples , thank it.
thank you
Hy, tx too, amazing samples…
You can find the Project Pegasus Maschine Expansion
Thanks Odie! I’ve noticed you’ve been making Machine libraries for a number of sample sets here on 99Sounds. Very helpful indeed :)
This is amazing, thank you so much.
Hey thanks so much for the sounds – they’re great!
I’m trying to add the library to my Kontakt 5 but its telling me there’s no library – is that correct?
I can drop the .nki file into ok but would like to a library tab etc….any suggestions?
Hi Ken, thanks for the kind works! Yes, these are only provided as NKI patches – no library included (making a library requires an expensive license from Native Instruments). Simply drag and drop the individual NKI patches into Kontakt to load them, or use the arrows to browse through the patches.
This is amazing, Bro! Thank you so much!
You’re sounds are absolutely amazing and just what I needed! You’ve helped me out so much, I must remember to donate once I’ve got the funds! Thank you so much, I really can’t thank you enough…
Thanks Sophie!
My God these sounds are BEAUTIFUL and AWESOME! I will make sure to STILL give credit as to where I got these amazing samples from! (\(^.^)/) THANK YOU Bryan Lake!! God Bless You!!
Thanks so much Devin! Comments like yours mean a lot! Have fun!
I’m getting an error saying my Kontakt is out of date. Is this pack not compatible with 5.3?
Very clever and generous, thank you
it s doesnt work for me is ask me to activate the demo time out what can i do ?
You’re using the free version of Kontakt which will only allow 15 minutes of play time. To remove the limitation, you should upgrade to the full version of Kontakt.
Or just convert 24 to 16 bit .wav in Audacity and pop them in the DS404… =Free sampler for free sounds :-) If on slow+expensive data plan & 212MB is impossible, try the [related] 60kB Synth1 bank on KVR because it’s INSANELY good! Google “KVR banks and patches Synth1” because they’re a bit lost on the actual site.
Yeah, seriously grateful Bryan: you’ve saved me a fortune in mind altering / expanding / sedating drugs with these… I daren’t layer them or add reverb because I think I might totally slip this dimension!
I don’t have to complain because these are Freebies….but at least ‘Exodus’ and ‘Pegasus’ are not compatible with Kontakt 5, you need Kontakt 5.5 for it (which is big difference). It would be great to state this in the description.
Can’t you just update Kontakt?
Amazing…
Thank you sooo much
Thank you.
-I downloaded the RAR file into my Documents/Kontakt Factory Selection Library
-Downloaded 7-Zip free open source software.
-clicked on RAR file and chose 7-Zip program to open RAR and load it into same folder where I downloaded RAR file
-Poof! Like magic, RAR was unzipped and ready for use.
-I opened Kontakt in my Studio One. Loaded the first Atmosphere (drag and drop) into empty Kontakt and Poof! Like magic the Project Pegasus appeared with loaded patch.
-I played and recorded about a minute into my Studio 1 and it Works!
Hope this helps others out there.
Thanks to the author. I’ll be sending you some payment via PayPal. Great job.
Thank you Charles! I’m glad you’ve made use of these sounds, and donations are greatly appreciated :D
first off these are so awesome! having lots of fun with the .wav files.
my only problem is that i use the kontakt 5 player, which is free…i am guessing without purchasing the full version of kontakt i can only use the NKI in DEMO mode ?
Thanks Chad! You are correct, the free “Player” version of Kontakt times out after twenty minutes or so, but the .WAV files are there in the folder structure and you can use them in any sampler you want.
This is quite good, thanx!
Hello James Brazil !!!
Congratulations Bryans lake! These tones are d +. worth the effort and your work, that God, conttinue bless you more and more, the sounds are fantastic something never seen, only a big hug brother!
Amazing! Thanks again!
thx heaps!! probably one of the most useful synth sample packs I’ve grabbed in a long while! perfectly edited and not a corny sounding sample/loop in there. just great.
thank you
Great job!!! Tried som of them. Had problems to use the files from exodus and Pegasus as sampling to create Another patch in omnishere. That was a pity. It says that it can’t read the format and that i shuld convert it to .wav but it is .wav already. I gave up but i don’t understand why this is happening
Sounds like you might be trying to import the .nki files into Omnisphere. The wav files are in the same folders as the .nki files, so they have the same name, just different file format. Project Exodus was done a bit differently, with the wav files in a separate folder so there’s no confusion.
You could just copy and paste the wav files from their respective folders and paste them into a new folder under a different name. Sorry about this. I’m not sure if the .nki files will work in Kontakt if you cut and paste, so be sure to COPY and paste ;)
Boa tarde! Amigo maravilhoso, sons fantásticos, obrigado!!
DUDE YOU ARE THE BEST
Oh this collections is so awesome. I want to get it and donate but pcloud wont let me due to high traffic.
Can someone help?
Quick question.. i downloaded the pack but its in DEMO mode and keeps timing out after 5 minutes. Any suggestions ?
hello I am having an issue where i downloaded the pack but its in demo mode any suggestions?
This is a limitation of the free Kontakt Player. The full version of Kontakt is required to use most libraries (such as ours) without the demo mode limitation.
des sons parfaits, thank you very very much
THANK YOU SO MUCH 99…
