  • Tiny Binaural Harpsichord³ | sound-dust

    A portable harpsichord recorded binaurally and also made into a prepared drum machine. Sample library for Kontakt VST Tiny Binaural Harpsichord³ £30 A portable Arnold Dolmetsch Harpsichord - plucked, damped and brutally prepared then recorded binaurally with OKM in ear mics and a human head 2 x instruments types - harpsichord and prepared harpsichord drum machine 150MB download for FULL version of Kontakt 5.5.1 or above. add to cart The Tiny Binaural Harpsichord³ remains beautifully faithful to its rare origins, a spinet harpsichord made by influential instrument maker and musician, Arnold Dolmetsch (1849-1940). As always with a Sound Dust instrument, the TBH³ offers much more than impressively realised acoustics and editing - it offers a completely unique and incredibly versatile ‘must have’ instrument for the modern player, sound designer or composer. mid Although the TBH³ has evolved from its predecessor, the TBH², there are some significant differences to hand. A spanking new edit suite and effects bank each come with an expanded set of features and editing controls for superior detailed manipulation of sound. Tweaking almost any of the controls will result in the transformation of familiar harpsichord characteristics, delivering subtle new textures or completely altered states. Experimentation rewards with never before heard wonders. Altering volume envelope, attack shape and heaping on the sustain can result in something that sounds like a treated harpsichord played with an E-Bow. Drop an octave or two, add a little something from the Sound Dust wildcards of dirt and rotor and discover the fizzing twang of short metal wires stretched over a jar. The TBH³ encourages and rewards with each edit. Tiny Binaural Harpsichord³ Tiny Binaural Harpsichord³ Tiny Binaural Harpsichord³ Tiny Binaural Harpsichord³ 1/4 What's Inside ?

    A re-imagined version of the Hammond B3 organ. Sample library for Kontakt VST HAMMR+ £30 Re-inventing the (tone)wheel Oasis keyboardist Mikey Rowe's Hammond B3 with some new additions.

You'd be right in thinking that the last thing the world needs is another Hammond clone, and I would be the first to agree, but the Hammr+ is a little different. Of course, she oozes classic character and has all the capabilities you'd expect of a tonewheel organ, but in true Sound Dust style this thing moves way past the limitations of the original.

The darkly industrial but uplifting soundscapes created by Factory records producer Martin Hannett for Joy Division and A Certain Ratio are in there. So are the madly brilliant and brilliantly mad Christobal Tapia de Veer soundtracks for Utopia, National Treasure, the Girl with all the Gifts and Dirk Gently. All thrown around with a good measure of cosmic hippy wig out Terry Riley vibes, some Jon Hassell/Brian Eno Fourth World aesthetics and the grubby wonderment that makes Sound Dust, you know, Sound Dusty. Expect strange disjointed and alluring voices, grainy strings, finely sculpted noise scapes, organic grit and grime, slurring mellotrons, drunken string machines, bent synths, amped keys turned to 11, low ebbing throbs and a healthy selection of other beatific cathedral of sound oddities. "There comes a point on every production when you've done the basics and now you need something new, interesting, unique and inspiring. So I navigate to my Sound Dust library where time and time again I'm surprised and thrilled by what I find " - Gary Barlow - yes 'that' Gary Barlow ! "I love it! Went straight into a soundtrack I'm working on" - Paul Hartnoll - Orbital "This is just what Omnisphere has been waiting for" - Phil Hartnoll - Orbital 1/2 mid Philosphy... Omnisphere is a lot like a sampler from the early days of sampling. She can happily loop around pre-written loop points, but for user samples* she can't do multi sampling. Instead of each note having its own sample to play back at several velocities, one sample is stretched over the whole keyboard. Higher notes are simply played back at faster rates, lower notes are slower. This means that looping samples move at different rates across the range of the instrument. This is terrible if you are looking for accurate renditions of real world instruments, but if you embrace it this can be a joyful playground of creative happenstance. Sound Dust is a big believer in creative happenstance. * do not fear, this doesn't apply to the core omnisphere library (although it does for some of it) £35.00 for Untopia instant download.
