Product Overview

Origins Vol 4: Oud and Qanun introduces rich, oriental textures through the pairing of the oud and qanun, two traditional Middle Eastern instruments. The oud, known for its warm, resonant tone, complements the melodramatic sound of the qanun, creating a versatile palette for both independent and interlocking performances.

Details

This library allows for the independent play of both instruments, with a focus on user-friendly controls to streamline workflow. The Multi-Arpeggio-Designer (MAD) enables the creation of intricate patterns and soundscapes, offering over 100 presets to inspire creativity. Each instrument can be played with single notes, chords, and rhythms, allowing for extensive customization.

The qanun, a relative of the zither, is celebrated for its expressive capabilities, while the oud has been a cornerstone of Middle Eastern music for centuries. The MAD engine is designed to emulate a human performance, ensuring that the resulting arpeggios feel organic rather than mechanical. Additionally, the library features a colors menu with 12 distinct presets, enhancing the sound with various effects and impulse responses, resulting in a broad range of sonic possibilities.
