KOTO - Japanese Ethnic Sound Samples

http://www.discoverysound.com/en/DFSD...
Kontakt |RNS
Koto's 13 strings bring elegant and spiritual sounds that mimic stillness and motion as does the 4 seasons of Japan. You will feel as if it is you who is playing these warm, dynamic tones.

An ancient Japanese musical instrument comes into the spotlight again. The Koto is not only used in traditional music, but also modern day composers have also used the instrument in collaboration with orchestras since the early 1900s. Koto captures the pure sound of Japan and will flood your ears with various sounds.

Koto was used in old Japanese court music to sooth the body. It has been said that this instrument could purify you mind, body, and soul. There is an opening in the bottom of the Koto which releases the sound that seems to penetrate your body.

The DVD-ROM was recorded with the player facing the Koto using the correct posture and emotional display to achieve the high quality 96 kHz/24bit sound. You can hear many basic play techniques such as types of chalking, finger slides, pizzicato, and arpeggios all inside 1023 files.

The Koto sound is as quite as the moon, cherry blossoms, and the surface of water. It has a lightness of flying butterflies and the sputtering of fish, but has the strength of thunder. Its 13 strings bring elegant and spiritual sounds that mimic stillness and motion as does the 4 seasons of Japan. You will feel as if it is you who is playing these warm, dynamic tones.

The overflowing rich sounds of the Koto were by no means for the enjoyment of music. During a time of ruins and decay of ancient times it may have been known as an intellectual sound source. But with the Kotos inspirational sounds from its creator resonating with mankind will bring harmony into the new age.

Alma Flamenco Sample CD the heart and soul of Spanish Flamenco! is the south of the border flavor you have been waiting for. Any producer who doesn't have this awesome collection of sounds is missing out big time. Just listening to the sample track will make you want to travel to Spain and hear the music live. I know that when I went to Spain to gather these sounds I almost didn't want to come back.

This best-selling library offers over 500 loops and sounds in Rex2, and Acid (Wav) format. This library includes characteristic percussion, such as bongo and castanets, plus the elegant and powerful Spanish guitar.
