Details
The library includes meticulously crafted combinations of solo instruments and ensembles, recorded with a focus on intimacy and expressiveness. Each patch utilizes unique Layers technology, which responds to the intensity of key presses by selecting from three velocity layers: Texture, Soft, and Loud. This allows for a nuanced performance that captures the emotional depth of the instruments.
Articulations include a variety of techniques such as shorts, longs, flutters, and multiphonics, providing a rich sonic landscape. The close and tree mic positions enhance the detail and depth of the recordings, making it suitable for both subtle moments and more dramatic scoring needs. The toolkit's design encourages improvisation and quick sketching, ideal for composers working under tight deadlines.
With its focus on characterful lead lines and textural beds, this library can complement larger orchestral libraries or stand alone for more intimate scoring contexts. The combination of expressive performance and intuitive controls makes it a compelling choice for those looking to explore new sonic territories in their compositions.
