Sonokinetic is an Amsterdam-based developer of sample libraries and virtual instruments, founded in 2010. The company specializes in phrase-based orchestral instruments — pre-recorded musical phrases performed by live orchestras that composers can combine, transpose, and arrange within their productions. This approach allows users to achieve realistic orchestral textures without programming individual notes, making professional-sounding orchestral writing accessible to a broad range of composers and producers.

The company's catalog spans over 50 libraries, with its orchestral phrase instruments forming the core of its identity. Titles like Grosso, Capriccio, Sotto, Minimal, and Vivace each focus on different orchestral moods and time signatures — from the driving 12/8 energy of Grosso to the delicate, whispered textures of Sotto. Beyond phrase-based tools, Sonokinetic also produces traditional multi-sampled orchestral instruments (such as Orchestral Strings and Sordino Strings), world and ethnic instrument collections, vocal libraries like Tutti Vox, and sound design tools. Their instruments are designed for use with Native Instruments Kontakt and support NKS integration.

Sonokinetic's libraries are used in film scores, television productions, video games, and commercial music worldwide. The company records with professional orchestras and session musicians, emphasizing high production values and musicality in the source recordings. Their products are sold directly through their website and managed via the Sonokinetic Manager application.

Sonokinetic has 21 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Kontakt Instrument. Their gear is featured by 2 artists, with the strongest followings in Electronic, Rock, and Stage & Screen. Notable users include Mebitek and Connor Carbon.
