The perfect new tool for creating soundtracks, cinematic music, epic music trailers and any music requiring fantastic solo vocals and powerful, inspirational, hybrid wavetable synth sounds. I do have currently a review copy on hand and can confirm that this is really a perfect tool for creating soundtracks, cinematic music, epic music trailers. All produced by Stefano Maccarelli.

Ethera Gold includes a collection of awesome vocals, hybrid instruments, epic hits, bass synths, organic sounds, violin textures, tribal percussion, hybrid brass, drum loops and much more. In fact, it’s all you need to create the perfect soundtrack!

Synced to the BPM of your DAW it is the perfect instrument to create great hybrid soundtracks.

Ethera Gold True Legato is an instrument that utilises playback ‘true legato’ intervals when playing connected (legato) notes for every interval up to an octave in either direction and sustain layers that playback when not playing in legato mode. This new Epic True Legato is based on the Clara’s powerful Epic Vocal. We have sampled each interval chromatically. There are no artificial pitching effects only a genuine human voice for up 3.5 octaves of actual vocal range. Every interval contains up to 3 sample articulations which you can control by Midi-Velocity. There is also a Scripted Legato Instrument with 4 additional articulations.

Ethera Gold Vocal Phrases is an instrument that plays back real vocal improvisations. The authentic “soul” of the singer. It contains over 1300 phrases in different styles, keys, and BPM. Using the powerful Kontakt Engine, you can change the original BPM using the Time Mode function. Ethera Gold Sustains contains polyphonic, single, long syllable vocal notes that are useful for creating vocal textures or backing vocals.

Audio Imperia Chorus Kontakt Choir Sample Library Review

Let’s do a review of the new Kontakt Choir Sample Library Chorus by Audio Imperia.

Review of Audio Imperia Chorus

Audio Imperia presents the all-new Chorus library, recorded in collaboration with Performance Samples. This comprehensive collection contains 24 women’s and 24 men’s voices, with four mic positions and three ready-to-go mixes: Classic, Modern, and Scott Michael Smith. Additionally, the Chorus library features various dynamic and expressive vowel articulations, as well as true legato sustains for an authentic and emotional choir sound. This versatile collection also includes a wide range of staccatos, marcatos, and whispers, providing users with the tools to create impactful and captivating cinematic compositions. To further enhance the sonic quality of the Chorus library, Audio Imperia integrated the powerful ebony by acustica audio plugin for added richness and depth to the overall sound.

The included syllable patches are Traditional, Energetic, and Slow, making it easy to find the perfect sound for your project.

With over 70 GB of installed content (in NCW format), this library is a must-have for any composer or producer looking for realistic choir sounds.

Atelier Series Fauxgorian

Musical Sampling finally releases Atelier Series Fauxgorian – a lush legato male vocal library intended for cinematic and electronic contexts.

Atelier Series Fauxgorian Patches

Fauxgorian Legato – Ooo
Fauxgorian Legato – Ahh
Fauxgorian Legato – Mmm
Fauxgorian Solo Legato – Ooo
Fauxgorian Solo Legato – Mmm
Perpetuum – Keyswitch
Pagan Ritual
The Black Speech

Atelier Series Fauxgorian is a delicious legato male vocal release designed for cinematic and electronic contexts. Produced by producer/composer Brad Jerkins, Fauxgorian’s initial aim was to produce a vocal legato library that was a bit more unconventional. We recorded three different vowels (ahh, mmm, ooo) and processed the recordings to achieve a unique, wide, quasi-Gregorian flavor that can suit a variety of modern settings. We also provided two natural solo legato patches (ooo, mmm).

Also included is Pagan Ritual – a brooding, deep, organic instrument that works great for heavy, amoebic basslines. Perpetuum – key-switch patch housing five presets of evolving vowel sustains processed with a bespoke array of hardware pedals. The Black Speech – a collection of processed whisper chants both solo and faux ensemble (try not to use these in a track at 3 AM).

Requires full retail version of Kontakt 5.8.1 or higher, the Free Kontakt Player is NOT supported.

What Is The Atelier Series?

Oftentimes during the research and experimental phase of development, Musical Sampling creates instruments that don’t necessarily belong to a bigger, themed release. Instead of attempting to shoehorn them into a future release or trying to construct a comprehensive product around it, Musical Sampling decided to create the Atelier Series so that other composers can enjoy their explorations in sample development as well.

Pricing and Availability

Atelier Series Fauxgorian is available now for a standard introductory price: $39 (reg. $69) or for Maggie/Amy Owners: $29 (reg. $69)
