Sound Sources and Preset Categories

The library includes 8 sample banks containing 112 choir samples. Presets are organized into eight categories: Basic, Drones, Experimental, Full Ensemble, High, Low, Melodic and Rhythmic.

Basic presets use a single section of the choir. Drones hold long, sustained notes. Full Ensemble presets use soprano, alto, tenor and bass together. High and Low presets focus on upper or lower registers, while Melodic presets pitch samples across two octaves. Rhythmic presets are built around percussive, glitchy vocal chops.

Workflow, Sequencing and Effects

Choose a tempo, pick a sample bank or preset, and trigger one of 14 BPM-synced samples spread across two octaves. White keys trigger choir samples and loops, while black keys alter playback speed and pitch and trigger sequences and effect modulation.

The Edit page offers start and end markers, playback direction and mode options, pitch and formant controls, and a sequencer with probability, velocity and swing settings. Three effects are available: Doubler, Delay and Reverb, with Reverb using Hall, Plate and Spring algorithms from the Lifeline Series. Four macros control the effects chain.
