Simply the best virtual Cello ever created!
Chris Hein – Solo Cello EXtended outshines all previous Cello libraries. Never before, a sample library of this extent has been dedicated towards a single string instrument: Recorded with greatest care and endless details, precisely edited and merged into a practical and musical instrument for NI's Kontakt Player offering an elaborated custom-tailored user-interface with comprehensive scripting. Chris Hein – Solo Cello features high-grade sound quality and incredible realistic articulations. This library offers everything you have been missing with previous virtual string instruments.
You receive over 30,000 samples, up to 38 articulations, four different legato transitions as well as extensive phase-alignment of all samples to guarantee smooth inaudible crossfades of up to eight velocity layers. This feature-set allows the creation of authentic cello-arrangements unprecedented on a computer.
This library benefits from producer Chris Hein's 30 years spanning experience in the field of sampling and library production, resulting in a product offering highest versatility, configurability and practical use.
Chris Hein - Solo Cello EXtended is a bundle of four fantastic sounding Solo Cello Instruments, all with a unique sound and played by professional studio musicians. All instruments have been recorded with great care and detail. Their virtual counterparts have been further optimized for playability and performance (EX instruments), thus saving your computer resources and still granting you access to all required articulations for authentic performances.
The following instruments are included:
- VLC1 Romantic Cello has a hifi sound with extreme dynamic and a precise and clear tone.
- VLC2 Modern Cello has a more warm and rich sound. You can hear the old and noble wood.
- VLC3 British Cello as EX-Instrument
- VLC4 German Cello as EX-Instrument
Library extend
The performance-data of Chris Hein – Solo Cello EXtended directly reflect the immense investment in recordings and configuration possibilities. The instrument builds upon over 30,000 single samples, up to 38 articulations and up to eight dynamic layers. This makes the library one of the most in-depth sampled Celli currently available.
The custom-tailored user-interface of the Kontakt Player not only offers numerous functions to adapt the library's sound character and articulations but also provides immense configuration choices to live up to specific demands and workflows. At the same time, due to pre-programmed key-switch-presets at the lower part of the keyboard, the library can also be effectively played without any need for deep edits. Thanks to four "Dynamic Modes", the "Note-Head Designer", "Key-Vibrato", "Hot-Keys" and the revolutionary concept of articulation-presets, the user-interface will give you the impression to really play this instrument live.
