Impact Soundworks Sitar Nation KONTAKT | 1.7 Gb
The most deeply sampled sitar, tambura, tabla and baya library ever released! Includes multiple mic positions, all important playing techniques, FX patches, and MIDI grooves. We came up with the idea for Sitar Nation in mid-2007, after noticing that despite the growing popularity of ethnic instrument libraries, few products sampled non-Western instruments with a level of depth expected from a modern sample library. We spoke with numerous composers and producers who were unhappy with the current offering of ethnic instrument samples which only provided an "overview" of sounds and lacked the detail necessary to provide realistic solo performances.
The sitar, tampura, tabla and baya were chosen for our library not only because these instruments have remained a foundation of Indian classical music for centuries, but also because they have even permeated Western music since the 50s and 60s. Sitar Nation is the first library to capture these instruments with a level of detail and realism normally reserved for violins and pianos, allowing the composer to control and play these beautiful sounds without relying on excessive programming.
The library is built on 2.7gb of "unlocked" 24-bit/44.1khz audio content. Eighteen main patches cover a variety of important playing techniques for all four instruments, all of which can be loaded from up to three positions: close, room, and ambient. This, combined with extensive sampling for velocity and round robins, allows you to carefully reproduce authentic sounds OR simply add flourishes of flavor to your compositions with a minimum of time spent.
Also included with Sitar Nation is a set of seventeen FX patches which take the core audio content into new directions using both pre-rendered offline processing and effects/programming within Kontakt. The result is a wide variety of highly useful sounds, from drones and percussion to chimes, pads and keyboards.
Handcrafted, Gourdless Sitar
Performed by Thomas Flanagan, the sitar we recorded is a custom-made instrument crafted from wood that seasoned for seven years! Articulations include plucking (thumbed and picked), mordents (quick "turns"), strums of the chikari (rhythm) strings, whole tone bends, glissandos at different speeds and both major and minor tonalities, basic phrases and tremolos. Thorough velocity and round robin sampling was used for many articulations, with up to four layers and three round robin groups.
Tampura
Traditionally an instrument played by an apprentice sitar player to accompany an expert. Though the body is smaller than the sitar, the simple, open drones it produces have a unique timbre that provide an excellent rhythmic base. This instrument was also performed by Thomas Flanagan.
Tabla & Baya
A set of two custom-made, carefully tuned hand drums performed by Jeremy Dyen. The sheer number of strokes possible for the tabla or baya alone is staggering, but we chose to thoroughly record some of the most widely used and recognizable techniques such as both edge, open and muted strikes as well as multiple pitch bends in different directions and at different speeds. Every stroke was recorded with nine velocity layers and three round robins to allow for seamless, human performances.
Special FX
From the unprocessed audio content, we created a number of patches using both offline and Kontakt processing to open up a whole new dimension in sound. For example, "Livewire Drone" takes sitar drones and uses FM synthesis and waveshaping to "electrify" the timbre of the sitar. "Deep Chime" uses extensive granular synthesis to create an ominous, semi-harmonic orchestral chime hit with a reverberant ambiance. The two "Shaped Kit" patches use ring modulation and waveshaping to turn the tabla and baya into an electronic percussion set.

影响中国的1.7 GB | SOUNDWORKS西塔民族
最深的采样西塔琴，冬不拉琴，曾经发布Tabla和巴亚图书馆！包括多个麦克风的位置，所有重要的演奏技法，FX的补丁，和MIDI槽。我们来到了想法西塔国家在2007年中期，后注意到，尽管民族乐器库的日益普及，一些产品采样的非西方乐器与深度预计从现代样本库的水平。我们与许多作曲家和生产商谁是不高兴与目前提供的民族乐器样本，只提供了一个“概述”的声音，缺乏必要的细节，以提供逼真的独奏表演。
的西塔琴，弹不拉，手鼓和巴亚选择我们的图书馆不仅因为这些仪器保持世纪印度古典音乐的基础，但也因为他们甚至渗透到西方音乐由于民族的50年代和60年代。西塔琴是捕捉这些仪器水平的细节和现实主义通常保留为小提琴和钢琴的第一个图书馆，使作曲家控制和发挥这些美丽的声音，而不依靠过度编程。
图书馆是建立在2.7gb“解锁”24位/ 44.1kHz的音频内容。十八个主要的补丁涵盖了各种重要的演奏技术的所有四个工具，所有这些都可以加载到三个位置：关闭，房间和环境。这，结合速度和圆罗宾斯广泛采样，让你仔细地再现真实的声音或简单地添加蓬勃的味道你用最少的时间组成。
还包括与西塔的民族是一个集十七FX补丁以核心音频内容到新的方向在中国使用预渲染的离线处理和影响/编程。结果是各种各样的非常有用的声音，来自无人机和敲击编钟，垫和键盘。
手工制作的，gourdless西塔琴
由托马斯弗拉纳根表演，我们记录了西塔琴是一个定制的工具制作，风干七年的木材！关节包括采摘（翻拣），腐蚀（快速”变成“），弹奏的chikari（节奏）字符串，整体色调弯曲，以不同的速度glissandos主要和次要音调，基本短语和颤音。彻底的速度和圆罗宾采样被用于许多关节，有四层和三层圆罗宾组。
弹不拉
传统乐器演奏的学徒的西塔琴师陪一个专家。虽然身体比西塔琴，简单，开放的无人机生产有一个独特的音色，提供优良的艺术基地。这乐器也由弗拉纳根托马斯。
手鼓和巴亚
一套两定制，仔细调整方面由杰瑞米dyen进行鼓。的纯粹数量中风可能为塔布拉或巴亚单独是惊人的，但我们选择以彻底记录一些的的最广泛使用的识别技术，如边缘，开放和柔和的罢工以及多节弯头在不同方向，以不同的速度。每一个中风的记录有九个速度层和三轮罗宾斯允许无缝，人的表演。
特殊外汇
在未经处理的音频内容，我们创造了多少补丁使用离线和Kontakt处理声音打开了一个全新的维度。例如，“创业奇兵无人机以西塔琴的无人机和使用FM合成和整形“通电”的西塔琴的音色。”深磬”使用广泛的颗粒合成创造一个不祥的预兆，一个混响环境打半谐管弦声。两形盒”补丁使用环形调制和整形把手鼓和巴亚进电子打击乐组。
