Cloud cello £35 Cello+ twine × reverb = Cloud Cello Two instrument variations - solo & ensemble versions 1.6GB download 50 themed instrument presets (.nki's) each with mod wheel patch morphing for variation 38 extra patches for Omnisphere 2 using Cloud Cello samples for FULL version of Kontakt 5.5.1 or above. add to cart Cloud Cello? Cloud Cello is the big brother (or sister, if you like) of the Cloud Viola . She's a deeply multi sampled hybrid Kontakt sample library created from an ordinary 17th century classical stringed instrument, but played and recorded in an extra-ordinary way. Cloud Cello opens up new orchestral-ish, cinematic tones and textures that sound both familiar and alien....in a good way. There are also 38 free Cloud Cello patches for Spectrasonics Omnisphere 2 included with the Kontakt version. mid Cloud Cello for Kontakt VST Cloud Cello for Kontakt VST by Sound Dust Cloud Cello for Kontakt VST How to make a Cloud Cello Cloud Cello for Kontakt VST Cloud Cello for Kontakt VST by Sound Dust Cloud Cello for Kontakt VST Cloud Cello for Kontakt VST by Sound Dust 1/6 How? So, you take an unsuspecting cello, remove all the strings except one and place it in a stand. Instead of a conventional bow, use something with a bit more texture and bite - in this case, a ball of coarse garden string sounded best. Stringing a standard bow with garden twine doesn't work, you'd need an impossible 10-metre bow to play a smooth note (I know it's impossible because I tried to make one!). After many experiments and cups of coffee, a retractable dog lead, an elaborate pulley system and a classic vintage fishing reel came to the rescue. This system can hold long lengths of string under tension and be drawn evenly over the cello string to produce a usable tone. Next step is to rig up some suitable mics. A contact mic near the bridge gave good body, and a large diaphragm condenser near the string picked up the 'grist'. Then using a capo for accurate tuning, thousands of passes were recorded to get enough samples for 5 x round robins per note plus conventionally bowed accents and col legno notes for extra flavour. The final step is to form the Clouds by pushing each note 100% wet through a bespoke swirly setting on my Strymon Big Sky reverb pedal, and then do the same thing all over again with a different setting for 200% wetness. What's Inside? Two instrument variations - solo & ensemble versions. 2GB of 24bit samples (uncompressed). 50 themed instrument presets (.nki's) each with mod wheel patch morphing for variation. 38 extra patches for Omnisphere 2 using Cloud Cello samples. Three octave key range - C1 to C4 Seven deeply sampled articulations through eight 'oscillators'. Accented bow: short bowed note with conventional bow. 5 x round-robin per note. Two mic positions- valve condenser and contact mic. Col legno: Latin for 'gently thwacked with the back of the bow'. 5 x round-robin per note. Two mic positions- valve condenser and contact mic. Twine: bowed with 5 meters of green garden string. 5 x round-robin per note, minimum 20 seconds per sample. Two mic positions- valve condenser and contact mic. Hard-wired to CC11 for expression pedal or midi controllers. Dark Cloud: Twine recorded 100% wet reverb-ed through Strymon Big Sky hardware reverb. Playback through Kontakt grain oscillator. Pale Cloud: the Dark Cloud recorded 100% wet reverb-ed through Strymon Big Sky hardware reverb unit, so basically 200% wet! Sub Bass: (ensemble only) Moog Voyager sine bass.

- Synthfundibulum #3 | sound-dust
soviet SYNTHFUNDIBULUM #3 £60 Bend and twist arcane analogue synthesis into new & unexpected shapes. The third in the devious Sound Dust series of time/mind-bending Kontakt instruments, hand sculpted from 7 rare & idiosyncratic soviet synthesizers. Character and wonk are our friends - synths can be organic! 1 Kontakt .nki instrument 250 snapshots 2.6GB download for FULL version of Kontakt 5.8 or above add to cart Soviet SYNTHFUNDIBULUM#3 - is a new member of the INFUNDIBULUM family, the range of instruments built for polyrhythmic time funnelling, happenstance and above all fun. This time we have a sound set created in a collaboration with Armenian composer Art Tadevosyan and based on his collection of ageing soviet synth beauties. SSf3 offers 3 independent oscillator channels, each with a choice of 33 multi sampled sound sets made from 7 strange keyboards. A redesigned INFUNDIBULUM engine plays to the character of these synths. In addition to the original cunning multi-arp system Soviet SYNTHFUNDIBULUM#3 has new filter sequencing, 10 new soviet reverb impulses and new insert effects. Packed with character and possibility with an organic plastic flavour Soviet SYNTHFUNDIBULUM#3 is an infinity of analogue that frankly you will never hear anywhere else. ART TADEVOSYAN - the ex shredder with amazing synths Art Tadevosyan was born in the former Soviet Union country Armenia. By the age of 10 he was playing guitar with the intention to become the fastest guitar player on the planet. But things radically changed when at 15 he moved to Germany and was introduced to the music/art of John Cage, Stockhausen, Xenakis, Schaeffer and the cutting edge electronic music coming from mainland Europe. Art's sampling journey began with his first sampler the Akai S2000 and an Atari 1040 ST as sequencer. Since then, Art has played in a lot of bands, composed a huge amount of music for TV and Film, and recently released his new album under artist name Art Tendency. https://arttendency.bandcamp.com www.instagram.com/art_tadevosyanmusic INFUNDIBULUM and Soviet SYNTHFUNDIBULUM are not intended to authentically replicate any existing instruments - not even the instruments that they are made from. The many many sound combinations and sculpting permutations cry out for deep experimentation and sonic exploration. Sampling should be a playground and Soviet SYNTHFUNDIBULUM is a deep synthesis merry-go-round for fun and inspiration. mid sovietSYNTHFUNDIBULUM#3_1 soviet SYNTHFUNDIBULUM#3 - SOUND DUST sovietSYNTHFUNDIBULUM#3_2 soviet SYNTHFUNDIBULUM#3 - SOUND DUST sovietSYNTHFUNDIBULUM#3_RTFM_2 soviet SYNTHFUNDIBULUM#3 - SOUND DUST sovietSYNTHFUNDIBULUM#3_1 soviet SYNTHFUNDIBULUM#3 - SOUND DUST 1/5 What's Inside? 1 Kontakt .nki instrument 250 themed snapshots...but Infundibulum is all about tweaking really, these will just get you in the ballpark 2.6GB download (from 3GB compressed files) MULTI-ARP 3 independent multifunction arp contraptions with gate, chord and 10 other arp modes Adjustable step lengths from 1 to 64 per multi-arp Adjustable step rate from 1/128 to whole note with triplet variations plus modem, geiger and meltdown modes per multi-arp Swing, offset, decay and pitch control per multi-arp Filter sequencer...
