The Dixieland Collection is a laser- focused Trad Jazz ensemble of instruments designed to tap into the iconic sound of Jazz Giants like ‘Louis Armstrong and his Hot 7’ or ‘King Oliver’s Creole Jazz Band’ from the very birth of Jazz itself in the early 1900s – with every articulation performed to encapsulate everything from a strong live-performed ‘Satchmo’ style vibrato across all brass instruments, to idiomatic and highly nuanced inflections and performance techniques across the entire range. Including; Cornet, Clarinet, Trombone, Banjo (with live tempo sync’d strumming), Piano, Upright Bass and a Jazz Drum Kit (including iconic percussive elements). The most complete and specific collection of Kontakt Based Virtual Instruments to tackle the Dixieland genre, laser-focused for ultra-specific realism to create the iconic sound of the early pioneers of Jazz.
Sometimes when I record an acoustic guitar or piano with a singer songwriter and want to add orchestral elements to it, I want to feel like it’s recorded in the same environment by the same kind of player. I might want it to sound like someone pulling an old instrument out of the attic and blowing a few notes for a unique texture, or picking up an instrument for the first time and just seeing what happens. The attacks are inconsistent, the tuning isn’t perfect and the air comes and goes. That’s what Amateur Orchestra is for. The DIY orchestral sound at your fingertips. There is a really wide range of tones here and a lot of niche instruments and beginner instruments were sampled for more options. From plastic brass to contrabassoon to someone trying a cello bow for the first time to someone who hadn’t picked up a trumpet in 20 years. None of these are perfect recreations of any instrument. Just a really big collection of colors to choose from that get you to a place where it’s clearly not your big city philharmonic.
The Gimbri is a three-stringed skin-covered bass that originated in Morocco. It is actually a lute that produces rich deep but also somewhat harsh and earthy tones through its wooden body and goat gut strings. Often compared to a bass guitar, the gimbri brings deepness into the music with its low dynamic range. The main focus was to capture different articulations of the Gimbri while keeping its organic feeling and warm sound. Traditionally played with the fingers, we recorded it muted, with a plec and through an amp to ensure a wide variety of tones. It comes with five presets, while the possibility of custom settings is kept open.
Korn is a Granular Engine that delivers unique and inspiring results. It works as a sample-on-shot player as well as a looper and granular engine with beautiful cloud textures of up to 5 grains. As a source you can fall back on an included library of over 150 carefully selected samples from the complete CI library. But you can also simply throw your own samples onto Korn. Korn comes with over 200 presets from the Textures, Clouds, Pads, Lead and Percussive / Rhythmic sections, which already provide you with a very complex selection of possibilities. Korn also impresses with its ease of use. From the very beginning, it was important to us to push the complex nature of granular processing into the background and to give to select and use all tools in such a way that the work is simple and produces fast musical results.
