Cinematique Instruments is a boutique sample library developer based in Cologne, Germany, founded in 2009. The company creates virtual instruments primarily for Native Instruments' Kontakt sampler, with a focus on rare, unusual, and cinematic sounds geared toward film scoring and modern music production. Their catalog spans deeply sampled acoustic instruments — including autoharp, kantele, celtic nylon harp, and unusual keyboards like the Super-Sound EK-470 and Zeitter & Winkelmann piano — alongside hybrid and experimental textures.

Among the studio's better-known releases are the Cinematique Instruments series (volumes covering odd and rare instruments and objects), as well as titles such as Stringed, Mosaic, Cinematic Percussion, Nordic Noir, Pure and Intense, Field, and Perpetual Shift. The Klang line serves as the company's experimental playground for more unconventional sound design tools. Many of their libraries are also distributed internationally through Best Service.

The developer has carved a niche among composers, sound designers, and producers looking for character-driven instruments that sit outside the mainstream orchestral library space, emphasizing playability, organic timbres, and idiosyncratic source material rather than large-scale ensemble sampling.

Cinematique Instruments has 58 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Kontakt Instrument and Instrument Bundles. Most Cinematique Instruments products fall in the mid-tier range — professional-grade without flagship pricing.
